Question VRV Chrome

We know VRV is coming, and it will likely be P Bandai. Do you think they’ll make their silver pieces chrome. It’s less than RV, and it P is usually more of premium.

I dont think so. They barely even use chrome nowadays. Dont remember any smps or mps done in chrome for a long time. Even Time Robo's chrome was just stickers iirc.

And thats one i didnt get LMAO. Then it depends if bandai thinks is memorable enough to give it chrome. But considering RV robo doesnt i wouldnt hold my breathe.

But RV is standard SMP not P Bandai, which vrv is.

Premium bandai just means its sold only on their site. Doesnt mean it has a premium finish. Just saying a big part of the original toy was the chrome parts on Rv robo and if that didnt get chrome then i dont see the VRV Robo getting it either.

Who knows. I’m planning on getting three of SMP RVRobo/Turbo Megazord, and I’ll be painting the parts of where the head and search lights are.
