Ouch ! Sorry to see that mate. I don't know of any version that has that particular issue. But i can see that being a fragile piece of plastic. As someone who never transforms my toy Valks ( or takes them out of the box) i can see the tightness of all the joints being an issue when the VF has not loosened up from usage. And , therefore, a fragile piece of plastic my have more strain on it . But ,as we all know, father time also has his way with it..
