Hasbro scared of chrome parts???

[SPLIT LIP]

Henkei suck. The chrome is random and ugly and the paint decos are bland and uninteresting. Frankly, unless Chrome is done right and made an actual part of the colour pallette, I would rather they just not use it.

Yet another unexplainable HASBRO conspiracy!!!

Me Grimlock don't like chrome, make me look tacky.

The movie line had some chrome..... maybe it's just more expensive now

Aernaroth can give us a detailed reason at why chrome fails.

[Code of Honor]

The reason as I understand it, is because of safety concerns and quality control. The process the the plastic has to go through to give it the chrome look makes it very brittle, and as mentioned by others here it flakes off and scratches very easily. Personally I don't miss it.

But what Hasbro ones did though?

No hasbro movie Tfs had chrome. No mass-release ones. Premium only had silver and "shiny" paint. Takara premium Prime had lots of chrome.
