I have a problem with my International Space Station 21321 set, all the blue clips that hold the panels to the main beams are crumbling, and weakened enough that I wake up to panels on the floor. I have no idea why this is happening, but hoping someone can help? Ideas I can do different to prevent it after I replace these parts? It seems to effect all the blue clips not just the big ones, even the little pod lost one of its solar panels :(
Some details, it's probably 4 years old now. I keep it on display but not under glass, in a 72f room. I have difficulty keeping it totally dust free as it's very fragile to begin with, but it's never really been touched otherwise.
Thanks for any ideas
Edit: not the technic connectors, the blue solar panel pattern tiles are the problem
You could always contact Lego. That seems like a problem with the production run or color.
And while somewhat blasmephous, if it's a display piece, you could consider glueing the things.
Yeah I think I'll do that. The specific part failing is "Modified 2 x 3 with 2 Clips with Solar Panels Pattern"
