This has been discussed before, but I believe the thinking is if you start
making different colored minifigs now, it would make every other minifig
previously produced white (even the natives from the Wild West sets) by

"why didn't you do this before" would be deafening. I doubt we'll ever see
non-yellow minifig heads, except as customs.
