 | | Melted Pieces —Cory Gallaher
|
| | | I just got my UCS X-wing in the mail today, and it is the 4th set I have gotten in a row with melted pieces. Am I the only one that this is happening to? When I was younger I got quite a few sets and I don't remember any coming with melted pieces. I (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | (...) I too have had the odd "melted" piece in my more recent kits... I suspect most of us have. However I have not had nearly the frequency you seem to be observing. I've only had two melted (malformed) pieces in the last 20-30 kits I've bought and (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | (...) Yep, I've got two (same part, same set) "melted" red quarter curve slopes from 6097. Those are the only ones that I know of, not really a critical part to get replaced as I got 10 of that set within a month from the same KB store. I WANT to (...)

| | | | | | I don't have alot of sets yet but I am working on it :) I am trying to remember all the sets, some were from last year. I may have been exaggerating when I said in a row, however not by much. I know my snowspeeder had a melted piece, and my b-wing, (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | Iv'e had quite a few defects in the last few years. It started with the 8448 Super Street Sensation with the bad shocks that break over time. Then I got the Naboo Swamp that had a pair of warped pieces. Two of the 2x1 bricks with the claw coming out (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | | (...) Well, I'm in the US and I've had the same experience you've had with the SW sets... nothing defective, nothing missing, and usually some extras. In fact, I can't recall *ever* buying a set with defective or missing pieces. It's possible that (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | Geesh I have had "lots" of new sets parts not "melted" but pieces so brittle (not from cold) they break under normal human finger pressure. Anyone else? -- Kenneth A. Drumm Ph.D. (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

I have had a very few mis-printed elements, but certainly not more than 10 (and I (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | (...) What about the "common" minifigure head-print smudge on those that are printed using more than one color? If we start talking about them, then I'll have to make a spreadsheet, mostly covering the Adventurer sets. P.S. In the last few years any (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)
