IMHO futuron is any set that has a Futuron minifig, which I define as:
white torso with futuron pattern in color x (where color x is the color of
the fig)
helment in color x
visor in tr-dk-blue
classic smile head
arms + hands in color x
airtanks in color x
legs and hips in color x
All of these sets appear to use a white, black and transparent dark blue
color scheme (so thats what I am inclined to believe a futuron MOC should use)
Note that this is the same classification that the lugnet guide uses for
the theme.
Some of the sets use bits in other colors here and there (e.g. the blue
droid in 6884 or the red cones in the same set) but for the most part,
futuron is black, white and transparent dk blue (which is great because I
got lots of all 3 colors now, no monorail though :( )
The only possible anomaly is set 1974 (a multi-set special). The space set
in that pack is labeled futuron by the lugnet guide and its 99.9% futuron.
The only thing that makes it different is the fact that the helmet is white
instead of black.
