They'd have to be pretty dense kids. The connection points on G1 gestalts were much more subtle than this and it wasn't off-putting for us as kids. In fact, I thought the connection ports on the 'Scramble City' gestalt commanders were fairly blatant, although those were holes not pegs... but still, it wasn't as if those universal slots were coloured some awful bright colour. I never really paid much attention to the colours, but now that I think about it, I think they're all black. (e.g. G1 Hot Spot has blue legs, but the actual connectors inside the ports on the bottom of his feet are black).
