Why does this remind me of Bathroom Taps

That's a lot nicer than a multi-colored K-x

a bit flashy - don't like the leather on the case .
A tad OTT for me - I'll let someone else have it

It's weird. No doubt bought bought some collector who have kept it hidden and never used it once and will be bought by someone who'll keep it hidden and never use it. I hear nouveau riche Russians can't get enough of all that flashy kitch so maybe that's where it'll end up.

I prefer my gold in neat little bars nicely stacked in a safe deposit box, and my camera to be fully functional and usable.
I'll pass on the bling, and carry a camera that is less likely to be stolen, more likely to be used for taking pictures.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

I'd rather have a normal LX (approx £250 used), a K7, and a full set of Ltd primes!

I have seen a couple of lenses on the Dimitrov K-mount site which appear to have been converted to match one of these - I forget which, but he reckoned that they were very well-made 3rd party conversions of standard lenses rather than genuine factory items.
I'm still tempted to have a go at something like a bright yellow ME Super (with the original black leatherette on the body) if I see a working one for under £20. It would indeed be a one-off, although the colour is still up for debate! I already have a very nice silver ME Super so I would have no qualms about respraying a scruffy one in a custom colour.
