Same with mine, but I'm going to brasso it off anyway, so it didn't really bother me. When I got the BFF the yellow trimed shield was missing some printing, so I called LEGO and they sent me a new for no extra cost! And this one is in perfect condition! :D

This is off-topic but, I got the Harry Potter Slytherin set, and Malfoy came with a messed up suit. Instead of green, it was more silver. I liked it better, and hav ekept it that way since.

Hmmm... seems like these sets are already out for some time there, does anyone know when they will come out in belguim because I need them?

All my kk2 knights except vladek will be changed to silver and gold by me, bodies and weapons included :)
thats my plan, but does it work?

Cedric the bull: "Hahaha Leo we're here to- wtf?"
*and the bulls see some happy knights bouncing at each other with carts*
Cedric (shocked): "I guess we got the wrong KK''
Bull soldier (frightened): "Lets go back"

I think making LEGO pieces silver and gold are somewhat hard, and flat colors are easier. I bought some grey and dark grey Games-Workshop paints, since they are specially made for plastic miniatures. Their metallics may work as well.

I don't think it is that hard, but I'll test with one armor first
this comes from Sava's site and I think he made it gold, or does it also come from a set?
I have been wrong with the black samurai armor already, I'm not taking any risks anymore ;)

I bought the set in Oberhausen in the Legostore. Maybe Keulen isn't that far away for you?
Or just wait for another month and they'll be in stores.
Dutch catalog says the sets will be in stores in August. That means they will be in September ;-)
Maybe it's different in Belgium, I don't know.
