The color difference between 2003 and 2010 Avohkii

I have recently been rebuilding my old sets to sell them. I’ve found out that I have two slightly different versions of the silver Avohkii - one version is a little darker. Is the Avohkii that was used as Makuta 2003’s hand lighter or darker than the one from 2010 Takanuva?

Actually, the 2010 one is the lighter one, the '03 one was still made with flat silver, while the '10 is in pearl light gray, the which is a bit lighter and looks slightlymore blueish.

Senit is correct. The original 2003 Avohkii is darker silver and the 2010 is lighter. Commonly referred to as flat silver (2003) and pearl light gray (2010). This is due to production changes to the color made around late 2005 / early 2006. Lego does not even recognize it as different colors, however Bricklink does.
