Angry It broke!

Well, I hoped that these bodies were indestructible.
They aren't.
My body on my bB Open Deck cracked, after only using it a week. The front bumper is gone. It broke because it fell off a countertop/desk/etc. one too many times. If only the front part wasnt so weak because it clips on... maybe this wouldn't have happened. Anyone else have this happen?!
The worst part is that I didn't get my hands on a camera that could actually take a picture of the thing until now.

See for yourselves...

I have a Skyline body on one of my Microsizers and it has fell from by dining room table I don't know how many times and it has not broken. Maybe I'm lucky.

when I was removing my NSX body from the chassis, I heard a crack. There was a crack in both the front wheelwells. I guess some bodies are more fragile than others

Sorry about the picture size... still the 2 megapixels the camera took it at. You can see the dust on the car... haha

Is there some way that when I get another body that I can reinforce the front bumper piece? Id put some hot glue on it...but then it can't snap in. Maybe I just need to be more careful and not let the people at school use it.

Yeah my skyline is practically indestructable. I dropped it many times on to hard surfaces and nothing.

Thumbs down

Looks like you shot it out of a slingshot. Damn! Did you keep it somewhere real cold like in your car and then try to use it?
Bitter cold can turn even the strongest plastic into glass. I would be real surprised that you did not do any other damage to the steering components or at least knock the magnet out of wack. Someone take those tables away from that man! PUT THE BEER DOWN AND WALK SLOWLY AWAY FROM THE CONTROLLER!
