Wasn't aware of the winger, I really like it, and I've never been a boomerang fan (probably why I don't know anything about the winger). A little tip for Japanese instructions, get the translation app on your phone, works with your camera, just hover over the text and it loosely translates enough to understand what it says.

Very cool! From what I could get out of Google it says "light blue" for the paint color but no paint code. I think you nailed it with the gun metal and it looks fantastic! I can see where painting that body would be a terrible pain with those deep pockets in there but I think it looks really neat. It is funny so many others mentioned it being broken in the case, I didn't even notice it! I am always paying so much attention to the stuff on the bench I never noticed it was sitting back there busted!

It's not my jam, bit it looks pretty good. I have a Boomerang that I fixed up from a non running state. Actually had to replace a front arm from only sitting on the shelf. I think that comic sticker says Bon bon. It's in katakana which is what the Japanese use for foreign words. I might have been able to help you with finding out the paint colour. Gunmetal looks good anyway though.
