Similar problems plagued this years Target MP-4's such as the dodgy/substandard paint apps, visible snips of plastic flashing and the dent in the door.
Though I have to say, paint screwups look 500% worse in white.

That's atrocious. I don't think Hasbro have ever done one that bad. Generally its just the design of the toy being very challenging or testing the limits. This is simply a re-issue and those are some major screw ups.

i dont think its so much the screw ups in the creation of the toy, but rather a lack of effort of quality control, not properly assessing the toy before it is packaged, this one should have been pulled up as soon as it was started and redone

That is really unacceptable, I hope you get some sort of recompense for it.

I bought the Target one, it had no issues but over time it flaked a little in the corners which I easily touched up with a paint pen.
The real bad one was MP-01. The blue on his legs begun to chip like crazy and I had to repaint parts of it. However out of the box it was just fine.
I was lucky with my MP-4 as he has no issues (I opened the box to inspect and then returned to box).
The good news about your MP-2 is that the paint defects can be very easily solved with a white paint pen. The bad news is that stuff like the door deformity cannot.
Takara-Tomy is quickly loosing my faith in them as a costumer. It is also hurting me as a fan and collector too as before I could always rely on Takara to give me a good product when Hasbro would cheap out on it.
Now just like politics in election time, it seems that when a toy is released I have to choose between two evils rather than a toy company that has my confidence.
