| I don't have this figure and thus cannot be certain of the correct skin color.
But . . . couldn't we do just a little better than "dark skin" as
a description??

I'm so out-of-touch, I don't understand if this is some sort of satire
or not
Dark or light as applied to skin, what's the issue with either adjective?
Is one more derogatory than the other? If so, which?
I'm aware that I am not attuned to the current PC-ness as most. Nonetheless,
they both seem perfectly acceptable descriptors as applied to skin tone. Unless
I'm missing something, which is entirely possible as detached as I am.

| I might be mistaken but I think most colour descriptions on bricklink are based
on actual specific bricklink colours rather that saying dark or light
