>>7130675The plastic quality in general took a nosedive.
Just recently I took a bunch of a few years old sets back out of storage and was greeted by this.
This is just a detail part, not one that stands under tons of stress or anything, is relatively thick and also made from softer plastic so I have no fucking clue how this can happen outside of some sort of chemical breakdown.
Interestingly it's just the gold ones while the gunmetal and red ones are still intact.
