I was thinking about doing my game in powder. Just wondering if anyone had ideas or examples of colors that could work with a Stern Elvis. I was thinking legs, rails, hinges and lockdown. Alex had showed some pink in another post. What do you think Elvis in pink, red, purple . . . .?

Anyone ever powdered an Elvis?

Gold plate it!

I was thinking about that but then it seems like that is what everbody does. I was curious if some other color may work.

Sell it and buy a Gold Edition. I have seen a couple Gold's pop up in the last year for $4500 range. Or I would keep it factory black or do a red powder if I were to keep the Pro?

The gold wears off so make sure you check it out before buying a mess and having to re-brass it.

Some games really pop with different colours, but personally I think Elvis looks best in black.

I'm thinking gloss black.

Gloss black is a very interesting idea. That didn't even occur to me as a possibility. I'm thinking this might be the way to go. The HEP Iron Man I saw done like this was amazing!
