On the Genius blue version, are all the white areas painted? Or some molded in white plastic? If so, which parts?

Based on the video @treatment posted just above, the white parts are painted.

At first I’m wondering if the nosecone tip could be molded in white, but when I look at the other VF-0 molds, the tip is not a separate piece from the rest of the nose, so it would have to be white-painted as well.

Thanks bud.

Upon further pictures, I've noticed these are the parts molded in white plastic...

So, the potential discoloration is minimal, as Bandai's matt white paint seems quite resistant to yellowing...  (Going on about this based on my Gundam Fix Figuration of 20 years)
