Both times it broke at the same point, around the inner hinge pin. The material does look very thin there, despite the fact that it covers the length of the hinge pin.

Apart from this, I've liked what I've seen so far...
Have those of you breaking wishbones at this point shimmed the hinge pin? I have, in my experience it tends to stop some of these breakages because the arm has less free play to twist around in.
