Bloody hell! Just purchased and built Double HeatMetal, but parts of the Metal half’s arm started crumbling once I tried moving it! Is this a common problem?

Given that I bought this guy while on holiday abroad and that he’s been out of print for a while I’m not pretty sure I won’t be getting replacement parts. I wonder if I may just be safer getting a spare version of a different version of Double and repainting the Metal parts so that they’re made from a less crumbly material.

Crumbling as in it was brittle and broke down? Could it be something like humidity and room temperature that affected it over time, perhaps? Because a long time ago it happened to me once when I bought a model kit and just had it sitting for months, and when I finally got to it and was building, some pieces crumbled like biscuits.

Yeah, pretty much. I only bought it a few days ago, though it?s hard to tell what conditions it would?ve been in beforehand.

Dang, that sucks.

God damn. Don't tell me GPS is still a thing.

Please no, I don't want GPS to return.
Edit: Also, any chance for pictures of how it broke?
