Thanks for the test file.

Tested the file with exporting it from Blender as FBX and re-importing it back in Blender with build 76015f9 and there, indeed, color is white for the materials.

However, i don't know if it is possible to have them stored - is it a current limitation of the implementation or the standard, or something that should work in certain cases.

@Bastien Montagne (mont29) if you have time can you look into this? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the report, but nodal materials (hence Cycles ones) are not supported by basic shading system of FBX format. You need to use 'old' BI materials.
