Minifig colors (was Re: Speculation as to a Classic Space *legends* release?)

This brings up one of my favorite topics, the question I ask whenever I meet
a fan of Lego space.

What did the different colors of minifig mean to you?

For me, white were pilots--my first set was the old Space Shuttle, and that
white guy was clearly a pilot.  Yellow were technicians, because I always
had the most of them and hey, you need a lot of techies to keep up your
fleet, right?  Red were medics, for obvious color reasons, just as blue were
MPs/police.  Black were so rare that they were the admirals for me.

When the Futuron-style minifigs came out, those became officers in each of
the divisions, and the classic style were the everyday working grunts.

I know some people used Star Trek colors.  I had a B&W TV and was never
really into ST so that wasn't an option.  What did other people do with colors?

Classic minifig set would definitely make a killing.  I hoping that over
time, whatever space Legends sets are released, they cover all five of the
classic minifig colors (white, red, yellow, blue, and my personal favorite
black).

(...) No, Yellow ones were the Marines. They were obviously the toughest of the bunch, they went out into space naked with the Spaceman logo tattooed on their chest. eric (23 years ago, 13-Jul-01, to lugnet.space)
