I would have left it in Black.
That had a menacing look to it.

Something seems amiss...? In the 11th pic down there is a shot of the chassis, some wheel parts and a set of allen keys. The allen keys are appx. the same length as the diameter of the wheel. Standard, small keys.

Then in the 16th where you are holding the chassis; the wheel is like the size of your forearm. Am I missing something?

Still cool, but is my mind playing tricks on me?

I definitely agree with that. It looks to be a good paint job, at least. I can see why something a bit more colorful might appeal a bit more to a kid?

This isn't me/mine, so I can't say for sure about that. I can see why it seems strange though. I think the perception of the wheels relative to the size of his arms is a bit off with the angle of that picture and the way he's holding it.
