Default Question for Flame ball owners?

Quick question, Are you happy with the quality? Received my red/black/white flameball today. Just looks like it has cracks inside. Pieces of chipped plastic internally where colors meet. Asked the maker, let me know this is the way they are all made. Not sure if the quality is worth the $60.00. LMK
Thanks,
Banzai

Mine is flawless.
They’re great people at flameball.
Let them know and I am quite sure they will provide you with a showpiece shift ****.

I have the 5 color also. It looks perfect. Think I would see if they would let you return for their inspection. They seemed like really good people and have been making these things for (many) years.

Good luck.
