I've been using Testors Sky Blue, mostly because I had it handy, as my color of choice to fill in the eyes of my autobot figures.  
The sky blue is actually a good match to WFC Bumblebee's factory painted eyes.  But I've gotten kind of tired of it on other figures.  I want something with more snap to it.  Most the time I end up painting over light piped eyes with the sky blue.  But now I want something more visually satisfying.  To make them look like they are actually lit more.  The real trouble is finding a blue that isn't lost in Prime's head, with all the dark blue plastic.
Anyone know a better color, or even a custom trick?  I had considered putting down a coat of silver or chrome and going over it with Transparent Blue.  I know this works well with silver/chrome and transparent yellow to give you a good gold look in other applications.

				Yeah, that'd work. Or maybe Candy or metallic flake Blue over white.
