I only had some small chips on the belly area (in robot mode) on the plastic parts.

Basically, in order to match the baked enamel diecast parts (which are hard to chip) the plastic parts painted mettalic blue are done w/ a silver layer of paint, then a clear blue. I got a few small chips on plastic areas where the silver paint shows through on the belly area where the tabs grip.

I still say a few small paint chips are a small price to pay for such well excecuted die cast. I'm not a diecast maniac (like most of the TBDX board :) but the fact that almost all the panels in car mode that would be metal in real life, are in fact diecast on this toy is very cool.
