Has anyone else experienced any white paint flaking off their MP Ratchet?
That's what I've done, with both robot and vehicle modes.Originally Posted by philby

I finally got to open mine up the other day and despite only recently getting Ironhide (and playing with it more than usual for a MP toy), I wasn't bored or felt like it was a chore to transform Ratchet, as this design is just a delight to transform. A little tricky with the chest area, but the result still amazes me every time I transform this mould.
And the legs... the way they turn into cartoon legs and hides everything... one of the best (since MP-01).

Not personally, but I believe it's a fairly common issue.
I've heard a reliable rumour the factory ran out of the mould with late orders. So to make up the numbers they used a Michael Jackson mould, used whitening cream & hoped nobody the wiser. Sounds like you were unfortunate to get one of these.

A little bit here and there, not noticeable unless you look real hard, but it is disappointing.
I swear Takara must not be able to apply white paint properly, because i've had white paint rub on Ramjet, Wheeljack (reissue) and now Ratchet.
