From what I saw, It looks like they may have been trying to make his colors look similar to Morton Koopa Jr.

Why him, I don't know, but that's just what I first thought. (Also, the video wasn't of that great of quality, so maybe the colors were a bit off...)

Black Bowser (known by my friends as Metal Bowser cuz he's metal \m/) and Golden Bowser (Pimp King) are the colors Ill most likely use when I play as Bowser...unless Dry Bones is an unlockable alternate costume if alts. are in Brawl...

That's the video that's got golden bowser. I checked it and your colors look very accurate (although could use some fine tuning, especially the shell color).

I took a picture out of that for a color reference (darkened it and made it easier to see too).



As you can obviously see the colors are messed up from the video quality and the screen. You can tell that what is white shows up as light-blue, so we can reasonably say that everything is blue-tinted.

At least we know that his shell is more of a silver/white with pink highlights, and the shell edge is golden. He has black skin and dark red hair.

so you think it's more like this?



I'm not sure really, as the video quality isn't that good and etc, it could easily appear different from the in game version. As they call him gold bowser, I'm inclined to believe that the shell is in fact golden. I dunno though.

That's pretty accurate. I believe it actually is a bit more white-tinted gold with a gold border in-game, to stand out a bit less.

How about basing the image off my color correction of the video?
There shouldn't be a blue hue, more of a light reddish one.



I'm pretty sure that's about as close as it is going to get, unless someone can find a HD video featuring gold bowser.

Im pretty sure the one in the 10th post is the most accurate one...remeber theres camera quality you have to factor in and everyone else who has tested Bowser at E4All said it was gold....so yea...

The gold color you have for his armbands and shell rim seems close to what I remember the shell being. It wasn't pure white, but it wasn't the dull yellow you guys have in the first two pictures in this thread.

Remember, he's the Pimp King and his shell is the prime feature. It's not a dull yellow, it's a shiny goldish white because it's his bling.

Is this recolor I made accurate? Just want to be sure.
there are gold straps around the arms. His hair is gold too. There is something different about gold bowser's face too. Looks good so far though.

My lord that video of him laying the smackdown on Link is a thing of beauty. I wish I was an artist, I would totally draw an O.G. version of Bowser with a pimp roll in one hand and courvoisier in the other and a platinum medallion of Peach in a thong, sitting on a red velvet throne. And wearing sunglasses with a crown. I've thought too much about this haven't I.

This Bowser is so badass. He really is a pimp lol! Too bad he's probably going to be overused like Pink Luigi. Other than that, I like the idea and I have yet to see an accurate pic of it. Could someone post one if it exists?

That one's the best so far. Maybe we'll get a closer look in some sort of "Alternate Costumes" update.
