Doubledealer: on the bright side, in that condition the toy's probably legit and not a knock off!See your local hobby store and see if they have a paint similar to gold chrome that you can use to restore your Rumble. You won't find actual chrome but you may find similar. You can get actual chrome paints, but they're expensive (because people use them to spray-paint cars & machinery, not toys or miniatures). Like for silver chrome I would use something like Mithral Silver. Not sure what the closest approximation of gold chrome would be though. I'm guessing maybe Lord_Zed might know?

And I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that toy appears to be a fake.
According to the Transformers Variations site it's from a KO Microman line called "Transistor Robots."
