Has anybody else had paint damage on the wings of their MP Rodimus?

    so I finally sat down with my Rodimus last night and I wanted to adjust his wings. They did not want to move at all. I figured the pin was just really tight. WELL needless to say it wasnt the pin. It almost seems that it was assembled with the paint still wet. When I finally got the wings to move the paint chipped. Now if I keep the wings in the same positon as they were when I pulled him from the box you cant tell. But DAMN!!!! so now I have two choices trying to color match or buying another figure...

    Hasbro or Takara? I have the Takara and I was trying diff backpack configs and inadvertently put a small scratch on about 1/4 of
    the circle around the pin, but I've never had an issue with the wings not moving between rodimus and hotrod mode.

    IIRC, Testors signal yellow was mentioned as an exact match?
