Geez...sorry to hear about the cracking paint issue. Maybe that could be the reason Sentinel went colored plastic rout and that might be the reason how they kept the price down. It's an odd issue because the cracking is only occurring when Sentinel paints metallic red. Any other color whether it's metallic or not, no cracking issue. Thankfully, Getter here doesn't have any metallic red paint. Comparing the prototype to the final product, there is still plenty of paint applications to make the figure pop. I think there's a lot less unpainted plastic than people think there is. o0620093014056182631 by sup3rhobo, on Flickr o0620082714118811644 by sup3rhobo, on Flickr

I think part of it's the mixture of the candy paint used. Something about it just doesn't seem to want to really stay "adhered" to itself. The craziest part is that the finish will stay perfect and there's no imperfection on the feel of the figure but underneath areas will just look scratched and scraped like crazy. I'd be ok with never seeing that paint on their products again. It's literally occured across every toyline of theirs using it from Iron Men to Super Robots.

If it's a ball joint, that just snapped off, a touch of nail polish on the joint will fix it. If it break, just like some got on DX Combattler....ouch

Seen a couple tweets regarding the ball joint of the torso area - not sure how prevalent this is From what I've read it sounds like the waist joint come off easily, but very difficult to install back, to a degree that some buyers are planning to return their piece for repair. My guess is it's widespread, just means you gotta be careful not to pull out the waist joint.
