I just had another 4x6 dark red plate with the 3x4 section of tile in the middle shatter after barely applying pressure taking it off a ARC-170 from 2010 while disassembling it. I was just taking another dark red plate off it and it just cracked with the tiniest amount of pressure. It happened to both parts on the set...
Now I have to buy another one so I can sell this fucking set. I only have 4 of them left in my collection and I need them for 2 other sets I'm gonna sell.
So much for quality, Lego. as I sort through my collection I'm finding more and more brittle blue pieces too. Nearly 1/4 of my blue technic studs are brittle blue. A bunch of 1x2 technic bricks with a single technic hole in the middle are brittle blue. A bunch of my plates are brittle blue. I even have a few sloped bricks that are brittle blue too.
Does this issue of brittle bricks still exist with modern parts?
