Addendum: You can make setting up a figure's appearance even simpler by including only a few, or even just one material in a .mc6. I've done this with guitar models. I use a lot of Mask-da's guitars (because they are awesome) and spent a lot of time making the colour schemes and materials look as good as possible. No disrespect to Mask, but his material setups aren't great and use a lot of fake reflection maps, which I do away with.

Anyhow, assuming I set up his Les Paul Standard to look just right, I can save that out as the default collection, Default.mc6. But, I may want to change the top colour from Sunburst to Bullion Gold. All I have to do is, once I changed the colour in the Material Room, is to save a collection named GoldTop, but only select the top from the list of available materials. This will ensure that when I click on it, only the top will change without it affecting any other materials. It is, however, specific to that model - or another with the same name material - so it won't work as a general use "paint colour". For that, you'd want to save it as a .mt5.
