Lovely pic, dude. 
Same here as long as I use my rubber care.
1 1/2 - 2 months is the longest the dome on mine stays good, then a teeny-tiny-crack on the front shows up.
barely half a mm long.
All sleeves are great, just the dome needs more love, but once it´s all cared up, he looks perfect.
So...all 2 months a rub is ok in my book.
A little sacrifice taken for the sake of having him on the shelf.
Not a day goes by that I not look at him.
Such a sight to behold.

Thanks, guys. Although the dome on mine is fine, the leg & arm joints show cracks. Nothing major but it's there if you look close.

I got my ED real early and straight out the box it was perfect. It's only recently started to show cracks. Just on the joints.

Just found this on FB.
... it's a ****ing shame!
Man the rubber covers on those pics above look awful!
I just checked mines. I had my ED209 in nearly air sealed Detolf case for a year now. With Honda silicone grease applied to dome only. Dome and joints show no signs of any cracks or deformity.

What a fail this figure has turned out to be.

Mine's still looking fresh from almost a year ago 
Yeah, seems like it's only a disaster for an unlucky handful of us. 
For a lot of folks, it's still a terrific piece. I just wish I was in that second category.

Thankfully, Knock on wood, mine has been on display since it came out with zero damage.
Gotta give mine another inspection.

Purchased from a seller in Japan and came today. First thing I checked was all the rubber and it is perfect, now to buy the silicone grease to keep it that way. Very happy with the detail & this piece is a beast! Going to try and stuff him in a detolf.
