As Marty says, Hartlands do yellow over time. Mostly due to sunshine and smoke.
Supposedly, at times they used a reground plastic that yellowed faster.
There have been some "dealers" who have tried to sell some VERY BADLY YELLOWED Hartlands as an early test "GOLD" set. Only thing is Hartlands are hollow. If you take a cap off and look inside the plastic is white!
I don't collect these Tastee Freeze figures but I think I recall they are a solid plastic? If so the only way to be sure is to have a badly damaged statue or a dupe of some kind and cut into one of the cream ones to see what it looks like inside.
