Nope  I is sad Deathy. But I hope to find that Tamiya got some decent metallic Gold spraypaint because I will have them all made prettier to make it more... Harry-esque XDD |

Awesome to see the Dark Horn is out, and yes, Harry's zoid requires extremely shiny gold XD

I'm actually close to just asking Grimm if he will do a Chrome commission for the Gold sprues and have them chromed, now THAT's Harry XD

(Tries to imagine chrome gold HMM Dark Horn, then brain exploded!)
I just got mine today as well, gold color looks like brass which is better metal to use in warfare. Man the green is . . . wow!

XD the green is amazing, I love it.
I had an afterthought to my chrome idea, it'd just cause ill-fitting issues when I get around to constructing them since chroming makes things a tad bit bigger.... I'll think of something to make it much more Harry-esque... XD Otherwise I'll have to accept the gold and build him anyway.

Hmmm yes, there was that problem even with the gold on the HMM Mirage where it wouldn't go together properly without shaving some of the pegs.

If you want a cheap alternative to chroming that won't bulk up the pieces so much, I'd recommend using a good quality gold paint marker! I use them all the time to detail my models and they don't disappoint on the shiny c:

I've considered using my gold gundam marker but there's 9 gold sprues in total and looots of parts :S
I may just have to let it be and build it when I can. May make a Harry Horn custom on a standard Dark Horn and possibly ask Grimm to chrome the CP's and such. But that's for another time...
