It's not like the baby really cares. Moving colourful stuff that makes a sound, what more could you want?
Babies do start to pick up on faces early on -- we've got some hardwired stuff there -- and on the mobiles there, the faces are away from the baby.

Most of the complex details and shapes are facing away. Oddly, of the mobiles I see there, the few designs aimed at the baby are mostly black-and-white, not colorful, while I'd have also thought that color would be preferable.
When they're really little, high contrast is more clear and theoretically more interesting. There's a lot of black and white toys aimed at newborns for that reason.
Heh fair enough.
