It's pretty much a given that FRS needs some paint. I just built W HeatMetal and LunaTrigger, and the Metal Shaft is solid grey, and the drivers are solid red. Not quite the same but I guess they figure people will need to paint some things anyway. (though honestly the purple handle fits the costume a lot better. Makes me wish that's how the show design looked)

I also hate to say, but the W FRS kits are kind of crappy. They really cheaped out on the accessories, not giving enough hand options and making the weapons solid colours. I would've at least attached the metal shaft's handle to the red and back runner sections for the driver and omitted them on CJ/LT like the actual kit does. Not even having a proper trigger finger hand for LT or two gripping hands for HM is especially weak, as it greatly limits what kind of poses you can do with the latter, and more or less ruins any pose with the former. When you have a design as clean and defined as W, with the high contrast between the hand and gun, and with the gun having such a clear trigger, it's impossible to not look at the hand and see someone who apparently has no idea how a gun works. A single trigger finger right hand would've been all we needed, but they were lazy.

Pretty bummed that Bandai still cuts corners on model kits, considering they are more display pieces than Figuarts.
