I'm not sure which gets the gold, and which gets the silver and bronze, but my three Schick injectors - a Type G, a Type M adjustable, and a Type I Hydro-magic - have totally taken over for me recently. All give me extremely comfortable and effective shaves. My DE razors and other SE razors just languish on the shelf.
What A Bunch of SchickHeads!!! (Lovers of Schick Razors!)

I2 hydro gold, G silver, the rest bronze..
A Schick E2 is the only razor I ever use, actually.

Where are all the SchickHeads??
Sorry- I was just taking a Schick.
I know this is not the most numerous group (probably because of the relative difficulty in finding Injector blades and the lack of all-metal solidity found in Injectors)...
...but I just had my first Injector shave and it was fantastic. I used an amber-handled G6, Chinese Schick blade and Speick shave-stick.
It was so easy to get a great shave with it. It's as easy as using a Mach3, except without the irritation afterwards.
I'm going to stick with this one for a while to see how long blades last and if this is just a first-shave good vibe. I'm used to a Fatip, which gives great shaves, but requires some real concentration to prevent losing skin, whereas I was able to use the Injector (allegedly one of the most aggressive Injectors) half-asleep.

They really are nice shavers.

I have 3 Schick razors so I am now in to injector razors....
Eversharp model G (injector)
Eversharp Hydro-Magic (injector)
Krona (DE)
Have not used an injector enough times to have an opinion but I am sure that I will in very short order.

The injectors are great shavers... smooth shave and gives a good close shave. Let's post some pics of the different types. I'm going to bed, but will take some pics tomorrow.
Nice revival of this thread, I've been using injectors this week as well.
I let my wife try my mint Stick Shick for shaving her legs.She loved it so much that she gave me back the GEM G-Bar she'd been using and wants to keep the Shick permanently.
Looks like I'm shick outta luck !

I have a G1 and a G2. Got them from my mom over TG. I presume my father used them years ago. They are simply great. No more Fusion for me.
While the G2 (gold plated, long handled) looks nicer, the G1 seems to handle a bit better, particularly when my hands get a bit wet and/or soapy.
I have mananged to find both German and Chinese Schicks at a couple of undependent drug/grocery stores. I have to say, I did not notice much of a difference.

Just started a planned 2 week run with a J1 and MWF. A great combination.
I have a Stick Schick as well....(in fact a couple of them) I picked up in the Auctions the "grip". What a superb injector. It has quickly become my favorite out of all my injectors
Here are my favorite Schicks, the G2 & G3... I think they were both Christmas edition razors, one in '46 & one in '47, can't remember for sure. They shave well like other E & G models. I don't have a Paul Revere Schick injector, but would love to find one. Maybe someone can post a picture of theirs. Let's have some more pics.
I'm loving my J type. I got it in a lot and I didn't think I would use it. I've had a spotty record with injectors. I' wondering when, if ever, that I go back to my Executive.

Cpool222 - those gold handled injectors are wonderful!!! They really are beautifully designed handles.
It is great to see that the SchickHeads are alive and well going into 2013!!
Merry Christmas SchickHeads!
