hmm, interesting.
I would be interested in seeing pics of the crappy paint jobs. My thoughts were that the designs in the more recent series have been a little more detailed that those previous. Maybe with that, the application of the color has QC issues they haven't caught up with yet???

If anyone wants to get rid of their shitty paint job Be@rbricks hit me up with some photos and your price(s). I still love 'em and collect them. I have 3 from series 14(Horror,Cute,and Animal)and I really like them allot!

Still buying them as well, though I am pretty frustrated about the lack of quality when it comes to newer releases... I really hope they will change this trend!
