Is it just mine?

I don't know how many people here have gotten the Platinum Edition Decepticon Triple Changers set, but I am very disappointed in the paint quality on the die cast parts. Astrotrain's boiler has several spots where the paint is scratching off. Blitzwing has a couple tiny spots like this too. And I notice that when I window shop on Transformerland, the original versions from 85 have no problems whether they are in or out of the box. Is it just me, or is anyone else having this problem? BTW, I got this set at Botcon 2016 for $40. :BOOM:

The paint on my vintage Japan white space shuttle has some occasional paint chipping on boiler part.
