Dinosaur Teeth Paint Peeling

My Pnso Acrocanthosaurus has the paint on its teeth peeling off. The upper left has already withered away while the upper right just begun. Any ideas why?

That's unfortunate. I have had a similar problem with other figures that I think was caused by the figure being packed and shipped before the paint had dried completely. I'm assuming that in this case you weren't using the figure for rough play, like having it violently eat other toys?
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

I think early shipment may have caused this. I never violently used it to eat other statuettes or figurines, as the box says 14+, meaning in mu understanding, it is not a toy or action figure. I'm based on California, and the recent heatwave may have something to do with this. But this has been happening to one portion in July, and another in August.

That's a bummer. Heat could accelerate it, but yeah, my guess would be incompletely cured paint due to hasty packing. You might be able to get a replacement from the seller, depending on where you bought it from.

avatar_Halichoeres @Halichoeres  I don't want to go through the whole return process. I'd rather try to fix it myself.  But thanks for the insight
