I've only ever had a few very dark 1x1 round plates break on me upon removal
from a larger plate. Then again, that head has definitely seen better days.

Was it from a Used listing you purchased from a seller, or was it from a sealed
set?

Would be interesting to know of it's origins.

Poor C-3PO is suffering from exploding head syndrome.
