I can only speak for N gauge where unfortunately the answer is yes
The most common loco type in Switzerland is the SBB Re4/4 ll/lll. I have examples of the class produced by Arnold, Minitrix and Fleischmann and all exhibit noticeable detail errors. Admittedly the Minitrix loco represents an early version of the Re4/4 ll which has detail differences but the Arnold and Fleischmann examples should be the same yet look completely different because of the different manufacturers interpretation of the locos body shape.
