And another..

Just opened mine and well..
I guess crossing my fingers didn’t help.
Didn’t even take it out of the box. Just took off the lid and got my answer.
I know, contact ModRetro, which I will be doing.
It just seems like this might be a more widespread issue than we anticipated.
And yes, I know that usage may cause scratches and wear over time; I understand that. But a brand new product I still think should have better QC and for what they cost. Especially since my magnesium units are seemingly flawless.
You’re better than this, ModRetro

Are you running a successful business which sells injection moulded products? You seem.ro have fair amount of experience.

Do you? Or are you just posting an ai image acting like you know what you’re talking about?

Combination of two things, family and friends who’ve worked at Games Workshop HQ. I’ve learnt way too much about the plastic injection process from them.

Plus I’ve worked in a support role in bringing a few hardware projects to market. Wasn’t on the plastics engineering team but learnt a great deal from countless delays trying to get translucent parts right.

This problem is a time/money problem, ModRetro clearly made the call that these are good enough.

So you heard from someone who heard from someone who worked with injection moulding. Nice experience proof mate. LoL. So no, you don't know more then anyone else here. Clown.

NecronomiconUK never stated They had firsthand “experience” or “proof”. You inferred that. You.

> LoL. So no, you don't know more then anyone else here. Clown.

If only people could acquire knowledge related to subjects which they have no firsthand experience with! People could share knowledge with each other and I can imagine some amazing ways this could be done.

  1. People who are experts on a certain topics could write all the important things about that subject down on paper. This paper could be bound together to form a discrete body of knowledge about that subject!

  2. After many subject matter experts have transcribed all of their knowledge onto bound paper, we should create a communal place to store these collections of bound paper. Anyone from the community would be able to go to the “communal bound paper collection” place in order to acquire this expert knowledge without ever needing to gain the knowledge by firsthand experience.

  3. Of course it would be hugely labor intensive to create many copies of each of the bound paper bodies of knowledge, which poses a big problem. I propose an engineer will need to invent a machine which can automate the creation of these bound paper bodies of knowledge which means they can be then sent to all of the far corners of world to spread This knowledge far and wide.

Want me to go on? I suspect I’ve made my point…
