And there are more issues. Orko still doesn't balance well, but I had already come to terms with that. However, there is some minor paint cracking and a few other chips.

I think you need to look rather hard to see those in fairness dude.

The lighting is tricky and I'm just using my iPhone, but pictures two and three are pretty noticeable. If I knew that the paint wouldn't flake off, I wouldn't care. But my fear is that those cracks will spread and the whole thing will suffer.

Oh, and in the first picture I'm not even talking about the grey paint bleeding onto the skin. There are two cracks visible. Also found this flaking

Damnit...after seeing so many paint cracks on other people's He-Man, I gave mine a closer inspection today and found this:
Two pretty noticeable cracks on the right hand...I'm choked I didn't notice them before.
I don't think anything can be done about it now since I think PCS's return period is only 10 days, but I sent them the pics anyway. We'll see what they say.

Whoa... Those are so small and subtle now I'm worried. I'm going to inspect mine throughly tomorrow in the natural sunlight. Hope they take care of it B. Don't know if that would lead to future issues or if its just a minor blemish that can be looked past. I certainly wouldn't want to chance it though

Yeah, it was the last spot I looked, too. I was just thinking to myself, "whew, no cracks", and them BLAM! Two of em on the hand.
I honestly would be worried a replacement would be worse than the one I have, so ok not sure what they'd do about this.
Luckily, they are on the back of the hand, so not visible from the front.

they look like hairline scratches even from that close up. Barely visible. It's isolated to the just the hand as well. That would be a rather easy touch up for someone fairly exoerienced. You got the guy that painted your thor. If that's the only issue you've got I'd keep it personally.
Edit
I also would be curious as to whether the cracks could be an indicator of paint for the rest of the statue. Especially in the same colored areas . I don't know enough about paint but that would help with deciding too

Hopefully this isn't like some Psylocke PFs where the production line "forgot" to apply primer prior to painting.

Here is my little imperfection. I do not see this as a good enough reason to return it, it doesn't bother me as I will never sell it.
I personally don't agree with most of those seeking a replacement over what I think are such small issues and unless you are taking your statue on the road or on a bike, I don't see how these cracks would spread. These statues are not made by androids and I fear all these returns will hurt the company and thus the other statues.

I know...hopefully this isn't an ongoing problem.

As Snad said, on Psylocke these cracks developed over time on some pieces. Hopefully that is not the case for He-Man.
The cracks on the hand of mine probably do not warrant a return...and I think I've already missed out on the return period anyway...but a partial refund would be appreciated in case I ever need to repair these cracks.
