I briefly looked through the instructions on Brickshelf today.  I got

yellow added in step 25:

Turns out that this is a 1x1 "headlight" brick turned "backwards"
instead.  But my disappointment is tempered by the fact that this is a
really neat use of that piece that had not occured to me before :)

for another example of that technique, check this out:

For another example closer to home (mine;-) check out:

For the record, my son and I did the exact thing Thomas did-- went to
Brickshelf to look at the instructions, got all excited, only to be fooled!
