No. There isn't a SIC figure I know of that has a diecast torso. Nothing that big. You may get small diecast bits like diecast feet, belt buckle, diecast heart, a diecast sword handle, weapon pieces, or diecast engine parts for the bikes. The figure body is mostly painted or transparent PVC and some harder rubbery-like plastic for the joints.

You're welcome, but it doesn't end there.... it never does! Time to draw out your wallets again, and get down with the SIC-ness!!!  Kamen Rider Faiz Fiaz Wolf Form**Source: TBDX Cool... I think I will wait for the Faiz Blaster + Auto Vajin |

Man... To my surprise, Faiz is a bit disappointing...
Just opened mine, and found this release a really mix bag...so far. This release definitely has great design, great articulation, and lot more diecast content than previous releases. So excited when I was opening it, but left me a sour taste after I did. As awesome as the articulation design to let it pull off a lot of cool dynamic poses, the knees & ankles are super loose out of the box, making it not holding those poses very well. It feels very much like the old loose Hakaider. And almost none of the buckle, phone, & weapon pieces stay on the figure at all. Pegs are not tight & stuff just fall off one after the other. And since they are really small, you'll lose them quick if you are not careful. Since almost all these piece are used to convert into weapons of some sort, I can't even super glue them if I wanted to. End up all of them just stays in the briefcase it came with...
Haven't tried to turn it into the wolf guy yet, but the loose joints really bothers me. If only they did better on the joints & accessories, this figure would be SOOOO nice. And they had it right with Red Doras & ZO! Just too bad...

Haven't gotten mine yet, but hearing that news makes me want to wait for the next Faiz instead, the one with Autovajin.

Man... To my surprise, Faiz is a bit disappointing... Otaru and I had a chance to visit some local toy shops, and saw the Faiz first hand... it did look disappointing. It looked top-heavy, and the legs looked scrawny. Personally, I think I'll wait for the 'blaster' version with the Autovaijin.

I'm fairly happy with my SIC Faiz (one of my first SIC, actually). Annoyed that his elbow and wrist isn't tight enough to hold up that insanely heavy die-cast sword tho. But still, he looks fine to me (not too scrawny).
I'll probably pass on the Auto-vajin set... I'm not big on collecting variants of the main characters ...and blaster-form wasn't one of my favourites anyway (Accel Mode would be cool tho - in fact, instead of the Wolf Orphenoc option parts, I would've been satisfied if they had different coloured bits to do Accel Mode... couldn't have been too hard.

I'm almost complete with my Kamen Rider Ryuuki SIC's.
I'll be picking up KM Ryuuki (red w/ dragon) this week, and that's it for me and SIC's.
I'll pass on the Faiz for now. I don't like the way this version looks, even if the Wolf form looks nice.
I'll wait for the Blaster Faiz with the Autovaijin, and that'll be it for me and SIC's.

Here's a picture of the Limited Edition Kamen Rider J from Bandai's SIC line. It's a complimentary figure for the limited edition Red Doras.  Here's a pic of Kamen Rider Zo (Zero). Pretty much the same.  What I don't like about it is the poseability. It's not as poseable as the kamen Rider Ryuki figures. Other than that, here are other pics of the upcoming SIC's: Kamen Rider Blaster Faiz W/ Autovaijin:  Kamen Rider Kaixa (?) Prototype:   Akumaiza 3 (three Kamen Rider type characters from the 70's if I am not mistaken):  Akumaiza 3 pics from the TV Series are fugly IMO, but the SIC (or is this for the Movie realization series?) versions look bad@ss!!! **Akumaiza 3 Source: incolor.inetnebr.com/stuart/akumaizer3/** |

Akumaiza is, indeed, fugly. I am Akumaiza, king of the demons. Bow before me, foolish mortals!
Man, that SIC Akumaiza set is SO nice. If I can scrape up some cash, I'll probably pick it up.

Looks like Delta and Kaixa is going to be awesome 0_o;; but I dont really like the way autovajin looks ;; now that we get a better view of it, I kinda thinks it looks nice only from one angle. |

That's not really true, I don't think. The Dunbine line is just sculpted by Takeya. It may not even under the SIC label, but does share the same stylistic approach towards the Aura Battlers, like the SIC towards Japanese henshin heroes. With so many other heroes still left, I don't see why Bandai would stop cashing in from the SIC line.  |

You are absolutely right about that, it's only sculpted by Takeya and not under the SIC line, it's going to be in the Dunbine line so I think they will released more of the Dunbine figures but hey.. any new products are good news to us but not to our wallet  |
