Yes, you are right. Previous HP figs were yellow. This new one has a different
skin colour (unless the catalog is badly printed, but I don’t think so). The
same colour is applied at least to some of the Spider-Man figs as well.

Wow, if they are starting to produce a new skin tone, that is huge news in my
book! I am astonished. I love the idea of switching to more realistic skin
tones as used in the Basketball figs, and frankly I think the time has come for
an update of the minifig in general. The overall minifig design is sound, but
I’m all for dumping the jaundiced yellow look. They especially look hideous set
side by side with a basketball figs and their tones. And how about a new mold
that better simulates a hand rather than the old industrial C clamp? Another
idea might be to detach the feet so that different shoes may be attached.
