I totally get material limitations (I rather dislike the look of vac metal no matter how much nostalgia I have for the Robo-Armor on the Ultra Police toys) and that the final figures may look less like grey chalk, that's not my specific issue: it's the insistence that any kind of gloss or overtly metallic finish on what are clearly chrome-plated characters is somehow wrong. It crosses the line from hedging your bets on how well you can accomplish the look through paint and is firmly in the realm of distorting the universe

They're chromed characters. You can dislike that, decide not to do that, decide you can't do that, but saying that it's incorrect to do that just feels deceitful, you know?
