Looks like the plating is only on the head for these guys, not the feet and hand, they look like regular spray...

Oh, what a great idea, tin foil, the perfect material to put some nice scratches on the crome, make them look like war vets of space, hell break a leg off and call it a limited edition...

They totally copied my custom bee, totally :wink:

Is the gold bee's head plated, or just gold spray ?

I am assuming its a chase, and why they are tin-foil blind bagged.

The head look plated, you can see the reflection on the lights above the toy on the head pretty clearly.

Uneducated? We are both Crome Plating Institute graduates, lets not go down that path...

What I am pointing out is that you can see the light refelction on the crome areas as a mirror, the rest of it is just reflecting light... I would like to see a better pic, but I wager Prof. Farnsworth liver I am right.

Its all good, the 'clearly' line just kinda threw me off.

I too was thinking the gold bee's head was plated, but couldent tell the drastic diffrence from the hands/feet and head, like I can on the silver.

Looks like the gold plating on the bee is diffrent than that on the set.
It appears to have a matte finish, while the set looks smooth and shiny.

I just assumed the Silver was the chase piece with all the Gold ones in the picture, but there is only ONE Gold out of Ten pieces :cry:

I have a Silver one of course. Still kicks ass in my opinion.
