My 8448 Supercar had a gray pin that had one end mashed flat,
then not 1 month later I got a 4561 train that had a green 1x4 tile
with what appears to be a piece of metal, fingernail shaped melted
into the top of it. Consumer Affairs replaced the parts no problem
(Although instead of the green tile they sent a green brick and I had
to call again :) Also, in my 8448 I found a chunk of black plastic
that looked like it would be a part of a technic lift arm or triangle.
All the ones in my set were fine, so someone else must have got the
broken part.
