ChromeBricks, the supplier of quality chromed Lego elements, recently released new colors including metallic silver, metallic gold, and antique brass.
To show the quality of the new metallic colors, I built a vignette integrating metallic silver parts from both LEGO and ChromeBricks. I bet you can’t tell which parts are official and which ones are custom. Indeed, the new metallic colors are a perfect match to LEGO’s palette. In addition, the metallic colors are much more affordable than their chrome versions.
The antique brass color creates a realistic battle look. Now you can make companions for the upcoming Atlantis Naga Warrior.

Neat! ChromeBricks is an awesome store already, and these new colors/coatings will make the store even more popular!
Hopefully they’ll stock standard minfig helmets in metallic silver. I never understood why Lego doesn’t make metallic silver helmets to go with the visors and euro armor :(
Never ordered from them. Might buy some now.
Yeah, the chrome pieces were cool but so shiny that–like Lego chrome–they’re difficult to use. The metallic silver, while not as shiny and cool, looks much better with other Lego colors for most purpose I’d use it for.
