It's something Bandai has acknowledged and explained; unlike the lack of details on the annual trinkets.

Nah, honestly... I'm sorry, but I really can't buy "we have to make cost-cutting measures" on figures that are supposed to be the high-end collector's range (mostly because you don't have another option) and aim to be as accurate as possible. Even if it's a minor thing like this, it's just another thing that makes me resent SHF especially when it's pulling so many other shenanigans elsewhere. I don't think there's any excuse when they have a complete monopoly on Kamen Rider collectors and get away with high prices, premium exclusivity and minimising accessories.

It's also not just the grey instead of silver -- it's the way they done the inner red detailing. It's far too opaque and SHFUpgrade's version really calls out how bad and inaccurate it is.
