Side-Tracked: Recent Haul of Such (145) - Kamen Rider Faiz (555) Basic Gear Set: Driver, Phone, Shot, Pointer, Gearbox

1 item from eBay arrived! And it has to be my most expensive order from eBay to date... Presenting the Kamen Rider Faiz (555) Basic Gear Set! "As you can see", this basic set consists of (from top-left, clockwise): Faiz Phone and Driver, Faiz Pointer, Faiz Shot, and Faiz Gearbox. Cost me USD 220 (approximately SGD 288.75)... Super expensive, in fact, I have consider many many many times to delete this item off my Watch List, but in the end... Anyway, quite fun...



The Faiz Gearbox comes with ... nothing, as in none of the gears, it is just an empty briefcase. I immediately tear off the sticker pasted at the back of the Belt compartment, and the printed cardboard in the Gearbox that shows the details of the various Faiz gears... Don't like these, felt too "kidish"... The gears can all fit into the Gearbox... well, almost all... because of show accuracy (eg. Faiz has his Pointer holster at his leg naturally after transformed, so he need not dig into his briefcase to hunt for the holder to hold the Faiz Pointer...)... you get what I mean... Anyway, the big words "SMART BRAIN" is printed on a silver foil sticker, quite nice...



Opening the Faiz Gearbox will show you the (spaces to store) Faiz gears. "As you can see", there is an empty space for the Faiz Axel Watch, which is super expensive in eBay... Don't think I will be getting 1 in the near future, unless struck lottery... The empty space is also too small to store the Pointer holder, sad... anyway...



In the middle of the Faiz Gearbox is a divider plastic piece that can be unlatched to fold down and reveal the space for putting the Henshin belt (Faiz Driver). It is indeed a bit worrying to need to bend the belt straps so much in order to store in the Henshin belt (Faiz Driver), after connecting the belt straps to the Driver unit... But lazy to every time remove the belt straps from the Driver unit, so ...



Picture below shows the miscellaneous parts that cannot be stored in the Faiz Gearbox.



Hope my other eBay item and my TaoBao haul will come soon...
