>>5755060I don't think so. I've had two and there was no broken gold on either, but he doesn't feel totally solid either.
His mosquito antenna have major stress marks on the base. The ball joint fits pretty snug in the socket so moving the antenna around makes me feel like I'm gonna snap them off.
See pic related. The purple cylinder parts on his arms that peg to the side of his body tend to crumble to pieces and fall off. On my old one, both were broken off, and one is cracked on the one I have now, BUT the arms still peg in perfectly without them, so it doesn't matter.
The wings feel brittle since they're clear plastic. I get kinda nervous when he falls backwards, which he does pretty often because his feet suck. (See 5:47 of

I'm also worried about busting the spring mechanism that keeps his head together. On my first one, it was loose and the head tended to flip open. (See 0:25 of
