All the wooden toys from Melissa and Doug have lost paint. Anyone have this issue?

we have had for over a year and they have been played with a decent amount, no chipping paint, but they are kind of rough on the inside of the hole, makes it hard to pull the string thru as it gets kind of caught.

Ours seem fine, but my daughter doesn't really like them so we don't play with them very often.

We have had the same problem. Ruined a coffee table and hardwood floors... Writing Hasbro and maybe returning a favorite toy....UPDATE: Contacted Hasbro via live chat on their website. Gave them the numbers from inside the legs and told them the issue. Also said others mentioned it on Amazon. They are replacing for free. They sent a prepaid envelope to send him back in so they can see the issue. I also had an issue with Bumblebee not closing all the way in vehicle mode. They are sending me a new one of that one as well without me having to return it.

Water doesn't seem to afect it. However, my son left paint thinner in styrofoam cup that seeped through and took color off. I mistakenly rubbed it hard and took surface down to wood...our mistake. It is great table and chairs.

No, using wood as water toys can cause several different issues. First of all, the water may damage the paint over time. Second, moisture can cause the wood grain to swell and eventually result in splinters. And lastly, wood can grow mold and mildew when exposed to excessive moisture or soaked. Depending on the type of wood some varieties do hold up better (longer) to moisture exposure (quick drying hard woods with antibacterial properties) but that would not be these.

I painted mine with geometric patterns to match our grandsons playroom . I did not do anything before I painted. I put on a dealer after I was done to make sure the paint did not get worn off. I have have it this way for over 6 months and no problems so far and it looks great!!

This iS a good question. But I got this for my 15 month old, and she really likes it. There is not any small parts that come off or anything, so unsure why. Maybe because it is wood, and if they chew on it paint might flake off? This is my best guess.

They probably are different because the 2-pack seems to be a knock-off. It's weird, one of the toys seemed fine and the other had the paint come off as soon as it got a little wet. I would suggest going with the single pack.

I have ordered several of these in the past--and they all are black. Never saw a brown one in the Melissa & Doug collection.

This has happened to ours as well. We've tapped them back in a couple times. I think I'm going to contact Hasbro. Everyone else that is having this problem should too. The company should know about this so they can fix it.

I haven't with this product, but it's happened with several other toys when the batteries are dying... Maybe try new batteries?

I just spoke with Fisher-Price customer service and they said 'Do not remove strips" as it will cause product failure. They will update their website to show only the newer toy as currently it showing both the new and old model which I stated was generating a lot of customer confusion.

I didnt notice the paint being poor on mine, I know one of the batman I order has battle damage but its supposed to. If youre not satisfied with the quality, contact the seller and let them maybe send you a different one. One thing I know is amazon is very concerned with customer satisfaction, so either the seller or amazon will resolve your issue if they can.

You might try contacting Fisher price directly. Some companies will let you purchase replacement parts.

At least glue. I did not realize that the model needed this and did not give the model as a gift because the child was too young to work at this level. The model does not say what types of paints are needed. So I would have to say yes. You will need to buy the glue and some paints.

Did anyone try the crayons on the board? I'm trying to find out before I buy it.
