Don't get me wrong; I've broken quite a few myself, but they have definitely improved over the years.

Well, I'm not investing anymore money in this line.

The primary function of the SIC Gaim line is to remove the armor from the main body and either A) Place it on the armor display frame, or B) Place it on the main body of another rider- right?

That's what you're supposed to do with these, that's what they're designed specifically to do- yes?

Well my SIC Gaim didn't even survive 1 single armor removal- I went to remove the helmet crest and POP! Snapped the peg off.

Everyone else can give their input, that's fine, I completely respect everything you guys say, your opinion definitely counts here, but personally, right now: I'm pissed off.

I've got a broken SIC on DAY 1 of ownership, and I don't know if any of you have ever been there before- but I have.

(Points to SIC 555/Faiz) Knee cracked and snapped off- day 1. Had to buy a replacement.

(Points to SIC OOO Tatoba) Knee broke and snapped off- day 1. Had to buy a replacement.

And to have it happen a 3rd time, on one of the most recent releases.....(SIGH)....f-ing dammit man...you gotta be kidding me.

I'm sticking to the SIC Drive line- that's it.
