Yobo FC+smell=why?

Post by 17daysolderthannes »

Does anyone know why the Yobo FC smell the way it does? Every one I've come across as well as most people I've talked to report a weird smell sort of like burnt/melted plastic. I don't care that it smells, but I'm curious to know if its actually toxic to inhale. I don't want to recommend something to kids thats going to give them brain damage, you know?

it could be one of the chemicals used in the plastic, i dont know if inhaling it would be toxic, but you probably should wash your hands after touching it if the smell rubs off on you.

It's cheap chinese plastic, of course it smells. It's not that bad for you as long as you don't chew it.

Perhaps you may buy a smaller one.

Except it's made in China. You are thinking of China. Japanese do not do that kind of thing. Everybody knows that Japanese make their paint from broken mechas that have been ground up.

Racist. You were probably joking, but i wouldn't make that kind of joke here.
Sometimes, life isn't fair, but you just have to work around it.

How is that racist?

He never said America is better than Japan, and even if he would have said that, there is no racism!

Racist means degrading another Race or saying that your race is better than the other.
