the black Lego, but it would be nice if all my "white guys" matched in
the traditional yellow.

Well, looks like the non-HP (Knight's Kingdom) sets in the new pics on
<http://www.classic-castle.com/> still use classic yellow minifigs. Look
at the hands of the jousting knight in 8777 or the king's face in 8781.

This would fit with the "flesh tones for real people (or actors)" concept.
Hopefully, non-specific minifigs will continue to stay happily yellow.
