They seem to be primarily metal, as at 9 grams each......and they are kind a small. So only the faceplate on-top, is resin, I figure? But 9 grams each is on the heavy side of the fence.
You're welcome...but really, are they metal or resin?

That does not negate the fact that this iem is worthy of the 4.5/5 rating, already corroborated by many who purchased it with their own money. So your blanket statement is totally not applicable here.Sure!
The reliance on short memories is common for the hobby - works well to jump from one hype train to another.
The latest stylish tricks of some "gurus of free samples" is to hype to the sky on first impressions and then give 4-4.5 stars "objective reviews".
The more objective criteria is the "market" - it looks like there is a mighty supply of Butastur for sales here that is not met with the demand even below $400.

Good to see the trolls I've blocked are still in here spamming and flame baiting people. 
Just ignore them, folks. They'll eventually go away and troll somewhere else.

Oh, great, even better! I thought it was all resin. I have nothing against resin...but I do love metal more (it feels goooood)...it's probably old-school syndrome. In the '80s, everyone wanted walkmans with metal boxes.
Plastic was not very popular in Hi-Fi (unfortunately, metal ones were often out of reach)...and plastic was not as good as it is today.
And it's 9g, not 900g, I don't have a problem with 9g
Cool, now I am looking forward even more.
Cheers!

What sources did you use with the Butastur?T'was about time since I love them so much, my Night Oblivion Butastur review is up on headfi here
https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/night-oblivion-butastur.26677/reviews#review-32661
THE PLUS:
-smooth cohesive and natural balance
-warm to gently bright neutral with mellow bass boost
-extremely versatile musicality
-spot on tone and timbre
-dense lush rich natural mids
-weighty non fatiguing thick bass
-good note weight
-wide instrument presence
-master of acoustic instruments and vocal (piano, saxo, violin, cello)
-smooth like butter without the warmth muddyness
-excellent layering and good imaging
-holographic spatiality
-can be use for monitoring or music enjoyment
-rich sound info that scale up with source
-TOTL performance for the price
-jack of all trade, master of tone
-safely tuned without being boring
-excellent cable
-excellent sound value
THE MINUS:
-bass is a bit warm in definition of impact
-like always with multi BAs, it lack sparkle-brilliance
-when treble switch on and bass switch off, highs are less refined
-not the cleanest background especially when bass impact occur
-quite intimate soundstage
-will be too maturely tuned for both treble head and basshead
-personaly, im not a fan of more than 1 switch
-and those switch cant be turned with our finger
-a bit capricious in term of ear tips, cable and source pairing (worth the best!)
