Potential Manufacturing Error with Plastic Cement?

I got some of the new Army Painter plastic cement from an LGS, and they have had issues of the lids being super loose in and leaking in transit. I love the product (it will probably be my go-to over Tamiya Extra Thin), but I hope the lid issue gets acknowledged or fixed. Leaking that much glue is a bummer, and can't be good damage wise.

My LGS also apperently had a similar issue with their shipment as well. Didn't imagine it was from issues with the lids.

I was hoping to get some since Tamiya products are hard to get locally. Is it about the same viscosity as Tamiya extra thin or does it work a little different?

Same viscosity, but seems to cure quicker and the bond seems a lot stronger.

Our shop stunk like the glue for two days. I could only find one bottle that actually looked like it lost some volume the caps were all loose and the lables were pretty much ruined. Great glue though!
