Huh-- it looks like the yellow ones existed, but didn't appear in any "set" sets
until 1982. Between 1978 and 1981, they only appeared in yellow in minifig
packs:

Then, in 1982, they showed up in "bona fide" sets:

http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6880
http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6950

The LUGNET guide apparently gives years of 1978 for the two 'fig packs, but
BrickLink and the new Collector Guide list 1979 as the release years. Hmm...
