    paint falling off my soldier

    Out of all the hundreds of KC figures in my collection this has only ever happened once, That was an WRAF figure who"s skirt came off!!!..well the paint came off her skirt..(RAF Blue paint) I don"t think the colour of the paint is relevant, IMO it is just down to contaminated undercoat or maybe...
