>was the clear plastic sturdier before and got weaker over time?Might be the case now, but they've been notorious to break on release with figma like Rin, Kagami and Fate.
That paint cracking aside, my only figma part casualties are 1 shoulder joint (because 2nd figma and me being retarded), a few hands where the ball broke off (Mainly Haruhi figma, and 1 Saber hand iirc. Bless the "1.5" hand-peg era), and a couple of stands (Peg that goes in the back). Repaired the latter though.
Nothing yet with "2.0" onwards, though those wrist joints still make me nervous with how stuck they can get.
And some front hair pieces can get quite stuck, too. Especially with my orange Inkling.
