The Secret of SIC Faiz..... SIC Faiz 的秘密。。。。。

I took my SIC Faiz (Classic 2007 ver.) out from the bunch of toys that I not yet played. I was shocked & disbelief when I opened the box..... Faiz took revenge on me for neglecting him so long by self destruct on his own left leg !!

今天从一堆还没玩过的玩具中抽出 SIC Faiz(Classic 2007 版本)来玩,一开盒就让我不能置信和震惊的情景。。。。。 它报复我冷落了它那么久而自断左脚!!!



It's well known that SIC Faiz is easily to have broken arm & leg joints & I don't believe it has happened on my Faiz. After I dumb strucked for few mins, I started to clean up the mess. While I'm cleaning up I found another shocked truth - Bandai used metal instead of diecast as the joints. Why I knew it's metal? It's because the joint is rusted !!!

民间盛传 SIC Faiz 很容易断手脚,不能相信这样的事情也会发生在我身上。我呆呆地看着它几分钟后,就开始收拾残局。正当我收拾的时候,又发现另外一个令我震惊的东西,Bandai 竟然用了铁棒来做关节,而不是合金。为什么我知道是铁而不是合金?因为那个铁棒生锈了!!!



Rusty metal will expand due to the rust. The tight plastic (ABS?) joints can't hold the expanded pressure from the rust and then break. Another leg also having some cracks on the joint so sooner or later the joints will break too.

I advise anyone whom wants to buy SIC Faiz now should open the box & check before pay. Those who already bought it should put it in a dry place to prevent corrodes.

Bandai, return my SIC Faiz back !!!

生锈了的铁会因为氧化物(锈)而“膨胀”。那些多出来的锈,就让本来很紧的塑胶(ABS?),因承受不了膨胀压力而断开。另外一只脚关节也开始有裂痕,看来断是迟早的了。

我劝那些要买 SIC Faiz 的大大要当场开盒检查,买了的大大就应该把它放在干燥地方防止生锈。

Bandai,还我 SIC Faiz !!!

Small, but expensive haul from my wife 老婆小但贵的收获



Saw these Disney's Tomica having 50% discount at Isetan KLCC last Sunday. My wife immediately bought all available units since she already interested to buy them in the past.

Each of them is just 5-6cm long & mostly made by diecast. Although it's small, it's not cheap at all !! Each of them selling RM 23.90 for the single pack & RM 39.90 for the double pack before discount. So if without discount these lots can cost us RM 200 =_=


上个星期日在 KLCC Isetan 看到这些 Disney's Tomica 有 50% 折扣。老婆立刻把剩下的全部款都买下来,毕竟很旧以前她就想买了。

每辆车大约 5-6cm 长,大部分都是合金制。虽然小,却不便宜!!折扣前单辆的要 RM 23.90,双车包装要 RM 39.90。所以如果没有折扣,照片看到的这几辆就要 RM 200 了 =_=
