Has anyone noticed an increase in missing or malfored pieces in the

I've gotten a few heads that look like they were double printed, they are • all
blurry.  Also, it could just be me but I don't think the new bricks line up

I have more than 150 sets, and most of them are from 1997 and before. I have

than the older counterparts. Extreme examples are the cupboard pieces and
their doors from RESQ Cruiser. Minifig movable parts are not tight as in the
old times, too.

Don't forget the radardish from set 6453

Great space-exploring... radar is looking at the ground.
