The paint eventually would chip off of metal, I've seen it, but with rubber-esque (come on, a real name, please! Soft plastic?) the paint gets rubbed off. With hard plastic the casing just chips off a bit, but the design is still okay.
And what's so weird about cardboard in a hard case? I have a bunch of them, and they look fine! My only real problem with them is that if you abuse them too much they tend to break off at the loop end. Maybe other people don't abuse keychains like I do. :wink:
Wandering around the site, I start to wonder where I ever saw a 5M.net logo with a red wedge. Is that like a really old logo, or something? As long as the red rim is preserved I guess white's fine, too.
