It's prompted me to bust out my other Super Imaginative Chogokins (they were in a box for part of this year) annnnd I have two questions for ya.

1. What would you say is the #1 forum for SIC discussion? (Not just here, I mean across the internet. In English though.)

2. Both my Kamen Rider Leangle and my Kamen Rider Blade Jack Form have broken joints! Each has a broken knee and a broken elbow. Since these were sold as a two-pack set, I'm guessing the plastics used for this particular set's joints must have been of lower quality than normal, as all my other SICs are still intact. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is this a known issue?

Thanx all!

As far as I know, plastics used on SICs are almost always inferior to SHFs. That explains the price, and also probably for ease in manufacturing process. My first SIC, the SIC Kamen Rider G3 & G4 set, both had broken right knee joints right out of the box. And they were MISB! Since that time I swore to only buy second-hand SICs. Way less risky than buying new. I bought my second SIC, the SIC Kamen Rider G3 Mild second hand. It was cheaper and safer. Then I discovered that broken joints on SICs had been a well-known (or rather, notorious) problem among collectors. That time I decided not to buy SIC again until they fix this problem. I heard the line with the highest number of case was SIC Faiz. If I'm not mistaken, EmGo also had broken joints on his review of SIC Kamen Rider Zangetsu Melon Arms. I think this problem have been eliminated on the new Superior Imaginative Colosseum series.
