Having looked up the concept of the character, there's definitely like... the skeleton of an interesting miniseries in there but I can see how he would be very vanilla.
Also, a herald design where he's just shiny gold man is not interesting. We have no less than two shiny metallic people in the herald stable. One of them has a surfboard and the other has massive tresses of flaming hair. Give the guy something cool and unique.
Arby is about right for the group fight, I reckon. I will note Surfer is the only Herald with speed feats of note, though Stardust's species is supposed to be FTL without the power cosmic... Though she's never actually demontratedd enhanced reaction time on panel IIRC.
Whatever else happens, Galactus is going to be looking to hire a new Herald. He is not going back to finding his own lunch.
Bonus Bonus Question: How does the fight go if all the Heralds are in their most powerful incarnations, such as Morg with both the Power Cosmic and the Waters of Life power up and the Keeper Silver Surfer who wielded the Quantum Bands as well as the Power Cosmic?

Meanwhile if you do most powerful Lanterns you have stuff like White Lantern Sinestro or Parallax Kyle Rayner. And the Anti-Monitor, I suppose, who is enough to take it solo if he counts.
Edit: Though to be honest I wouldn't count him. At best he would be analagous to Galactus for the Heralds.
