I've also noticed alot of plates from the McD's set seem to have a lot
of signs of stress marks, I wonder if they didn't get a bad batch of ABS
in. It wasn't prevalent on all of the plates. Which might account for
what you are seeing below, maybe it's too stiff and it won't break off
clean from the mold.

Anyone else notice this on the plates in their sets?

Hi, is it just me or do there seem to be alot of crapped out plates
hitting the shelves of late. I recently got some plates sets, and alot
of them had 1 stud (at least) that had significant flash on its top
surface that required careful finishing. I might have expected the odd
piece or two be a little bit off, but some of the reccent plates had
studs that were abominable to say the least!

Please say it's only me, and TLG aren't throwing QA out the Window!

(...) Not that so much as more *warped* plates than I recall being normal in the McD sets. Perhaps that is due to bad handling by McD (or me) rather than bad QA, though... (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
