The yellow minifig is not dead. I recall Jake mentioning at a Brickfest
convention that the flesh-colored minifigs are only done when there’s a
likeness to a person, either in real-life or as an actor/person in a licensed
product.
For example: The F1 racers sets. All figures are yellow, EXCEPT for
Barichello and Shumacher. Since they are real, they are flesh. The crew is
yellow.
World City sets have all yellow minifigs.
Dora, Harry Potter and Star Wars are flesh figures--for specific characters.

Hey Scott,
Everthing you wrote is correct except for this:
| |
Non-specific Star Wars characters (i.e. rebel snow soldier in snowspeeder
set) is yellow.
|
If you look at the Snowspeeder set you will also see that Luke and Dack are
yellow. Thats because the Snowspeeder was in the last wave of sets to have
yellow minifigs - along with the Dagobah X-wing and Mos Eisley Cantina. All
minifigs in new Star Wars sets (i.e. Millennium Falcon) will have the flesh
tones.

So, the yellow minifig is not dead.
