I'm sure it was a factory primer issue. It has been brought up before.

What are some things I should avoid to have these kinds of things happening?
some things I could come up with are:
1. avoid direct sunlight
2. avoid humidity by placing those absorbers near statue
3. keep it inside glass display to avoid dust/oil particles.
what else guys please?
thanks in advance

That sucks. Sorry to see.
We have one in our display room and its fine.
It may be a batch where the primer used by the factory was mixed incorrectly (sometimes it takes years to show itself) or it could be the weather conditions where it is displayed.
Hard to say.
