The new Millennium Falcon should have these as well. I don't object to the look
of them when considered by itself, but I do heartily object to the fact that
they changed the colors in mid-run for the various themes. What are the chances
that every single human minifig that's been produced for those lines will be
updated to the new flesh-tones? And if they're not, it's kind of like having
the old vintage SW figures for one movie, and the new hyper-detailed figures for
the next movie. Yes, they're technically compatible, but they just don't look
right next to each other.

The official word is that they're doing the flesh-tone look just for the sets
that represent actual people or licensed characters. So, the three movie
licenses, the Ferrari sets, and the Dora DUPLO sets are all done in flesh-tones,
but Alpha Team, Knights' Kingdom, and World City are all done in classic yellow.
