are these balls metal / gold plated or plastic / gold plated?

These are metal gold plated. They are very attractive when added to the peace. They add a very soft and subtle hint of gold. Great buy I might say myself.

Honestly, I gave these to my grand-daughters and didn't inspect them prior to that. I think they were metal, but am not absolutely sure.

That is incorrect. They are plastic, unless this is an entirely different product than I ordered.

I think they are hard plastic and then the prongs are metal... Hopefully that gives you the answer you are looking for.

They are Metal. They are exactly as the single packaged ones. The only problem is that you don't know what you are getting. I got jeeps, truck, van when i wanted mostly cars. But I can't complain, my son loved them. It was a very colourful assortment.

The red portion is made of plastic with the gold/bottom being metal. I think the only reason the ratings are lower so far is because people thought they were glass. I think they're a good buy in terms of they are a cool design and they do what you need them to do, hold alcohol =). They're a solid, fun buy. Safer and cheaper to ship as plastic and they won't break if they get dropped or knocked down.

I believe they are plastic. Don't have it in front of me. I've give it to two baby boys and both have absolutely loved it. Has become their absolute favorite!!

The ball bearings are ceramic but the races are steel. Fortunately there is no metal to metal contact, thus no chance of rust. These are extremely fast!!!! Very smooth, and impeccably quiet!

I have only received the plastic ones. I would return them if they were metal. I have purchased them twice from amazon and they are plastic

They are plastic. I am trying to think of a scenario where they could be broken. Nope. They appear virtually indestructible.

The ones that came with my set were not plastic. I'm not sure of the metal makeup but I'm positive they were not plastic.

They are stainless steel colored. Not gold. We like using them for cold drinks.

the new ones, have a flat metal bar. The balls are solid. I never had a set of the "original". These are very nice!
