I think thats pretty much universal, not seen anyone say they hate them. The Gunmetal Ak's incidentally have arrived and are much better than the black ones for my purposes.

My order just arrived today and as always they are great. I hadn't ordered gunmetal before, but my two favorite guns (the M4 and Combat LMG), were offered and I thought I would order a couple. It is a great color. The tan is fantastic as well. Plus bronze freebies. All are great additions to my collection. Thanks Will and I can't wait to see what you've got coming next.

If only we had tan M4s. Then I would spend at least 30 bucks on only tan M4s. ;)

^I'm curious about that as well. Perhaps the question was already answered, but how come some of the weapons aren't in the new colors? Not that I'm complaining! Just curious. Peace is a lie-Sith Code DissapointmentClaymore Sword - Design finalized. Will most likely see mass production

I just got my order of tan and gunmetal weapons today, and I must say they are amazing! Although some of the tan guns don't perfectly match all lego tans, I love them! I prefer the BA tan over the Lego one.

All the BrickArms Tan items are a single tan color that's 100% matched to a consensus LEGO tan color, but there's significant variation in color amongst various tan bricks. Take a bunch of tan plates and stack them up; you'll notice there can be a lot of difference in their color!

These new colours look really great, and I am looking forward to receiving the few tan coloured items I have ordered. Tan is a really nice colour that I can see as being useful in a number of different situations, and I am glad that it has been added to the BA store. I look forward to seeing what other exciting things Will has lined up to be available from the store in the near future. :)

Awesome, I ordered some for my birthday, can't open them until Nov 6th, I really want to! It's so irritating, having a large packet of new brickarms siting in my room, ahhhh! Anyway, great stuff Will! Flickr - MOCpages - YouTube

This is great news!
I just noticed this yesterday before seeing it on the forums, and I must say this is going to make my wallet a lot thinner. Having the baseball bat in tan, especially, is perfect, since the ideal wooden bat is tan.

This is an interesting issue for color matching I'm assuming but completely understandable. I having recieved some tan items can attest to the fact that they are a spot on match for TLG's tan color. As far as variation on Legos's pallette it is extremely noticible in the discontinued purple. The Knight Bus mini HP set had at least 3 shades of purple in it. If you think about it, one could say Will has been more successful in color matching than Lego themselves. NINJA STARS!!!!!!
