Seibertron.com is a Transformers fansite. It is not a fansite about 3rd party products. I do NOT care for 3rd party products. I am TIRED of seeing the stuff here on this site. That's all it comes down to.

As a long time model builder (15yrs approx), I can assure you there's no way to achieve this exact finish on your own. I'm sure they'll make for a real nice display piece, Golden Lagoon Optimus... mmmm.

more than likely, they used Electrum and heat-and-radiation-resistant alloy. Please see "The Golden Lagoon" an "The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 2".
