shows a picture of a bluecoat soldier (original Pirate foe) on what is
probably a white magnet brick with a 2x4 tile printed with a '1' in a circle
and "BRICKTOBER 1989".  The fig has red epaulets, no backpack or weapons.

Someone posted all four of these on Bricklink, and the magnet colors are as
follows:

Week 1, Imperial Soldier, yellow base
Week 2, Cavalry Colonel, dark-bley base
Week 3, Fire Chief, red base
Week 4, Black Falcon, blue base

As much as I would love to see a white magnet base, I was expecting a black one
for the Classic Space minifig magnet, and they used dark-bley.  Currently, the
four colors they're using for the Bricktober minifigs are the only four colors
that are in regular production.  The only other color they've used at all is
tan, which was only available in one Crystal Skull minifig magnet 3-pack.  Kinda
makes me sad, since I had this idea of displaying the Collectible Minifigs on
magnet bricks that matched the color of their packaging, but Series 3 and Series
4 are reported to be green and orange, neither of which I'm expecting to ever
see in the minifig magnet bases.
