Fire Sword, Ice Sword and Stone Mallet are weapons and also part of a set that is also color customizable
True, but can you decide that instead of a Stone Mallet you want a stone baseball bat?

The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

I'd have to load up the game to confirm it either way, but if I recall Fire melee and Ice Melee have three different swords for three different sword attacks. Pre Power Customisation that meant one sword per power, but with Power Customisation you can choose which sword you want for which power. All three could be the same fire sword, for example.
So yeah, I think the devs could add a hypothetical stone baseball bat to replace the Stone Mallet in the set.
Edit: Yup, fire melee definitely has two choices for its sword attacks, the fire scimitar and the greater fire sword (as well as dark versions of both). So since that it's possible, chances are, having different weapon options for otherwise weaponless sets would be possible as well.

No, they're not weapons. Or at least, the game doesn't handle them as one. They're power effects, like the aura from your toggles, or the projectile from your blasts.

Technically, Spines falls into this category, as it has Impale, Quills, and Throw Spines that are both a weapon customization and a power customization. |

A quick skim of Paragonwiki did not show any of the weapon-bearing blast sets (AR, Dual Pistols, Pulse Rifle) to be on the color customization table. Link: http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Power_Customization I ask this in preparation for thinking up a new powerset suggestion. |
That is the only example of both of those things existing within one powerset that I am aware of. Claws has 2 ranged attacks in it, but you cannot recolor them (which sucks, I wanted a red Focus and Shockwave to match the Energy Torrent in Body Mastery)

I'm thinking of the "what if" of having say........a Sci-Fi Ray Gun blast set with different weapon choices AND choices of customizable blast colors.
Closest I could find was BaB's response to adding weapons to non weapon sets:

Hmm.
"Adding customizeable weapons to power customization is another story."
That's what I was looking for, and unfortunately, what I was expecting.

Well, considering Robot's laser gun doesn't get the option to change hte laser colors, I doubt it would happen (sadly).|
