I bought a Deluxe Barricade a few months ago, because I thought it was an awesome decepticon (and his alt mode looks great!). I really like him, despite all the negative comments I found on the web about the difficulty of transforming him back to car, the funny spring-loaded arm thing, and the fact that the ball joints of his feet are not strong enough and if you try any action pose, he falls right on his chest!

Anyway I've started to notice a small crack, located on the socket that holds the left foot to the ball joint on his leg. I´m not sure if the damage has been caused by the transformation process, or the couple of times that he landed face down, when I left him in some unstable poses. There is a tiny crack on the right foot as well.

Does anyone have a deluxe barricade that has the same damage as mine? or maybe the one I bought is the only with this issue?

Me too--there's one foot that doesn't ratchet--or click when I move it--it's annoying. ...and there's one foot that falls off. I wouldn't worry about it too much, though.
