From my knowledge, it's a recent occurance. I can't think of any sets that came
out more than 2 years ago that have this problem. Many of my sets from more than
2 years ago seem to be exempt. UFO and Exploriens come to mind as 'safe' sets to
work with. Fright Knights, Wild West, and certain older town sets ring a bell as

seem to have the occasional hidden piece, but not to the degree we are seeing
now. Some themes that seem to be suffering from this 'problem':
Ninja, Insectoids, Star Wars (the most visible one)

I don't do town jr or castle (if I can help it), so I'll leave commenting on
those to others.
