1. The product fails to perform its intended functions without prior notice (e.g., unable to charge, lights not working).
2. The product does not meet the standards described in its labeling or packaging. Applicable Products: All products
2.6 Defect-related Issues
① Type 1
Product: Blind box figurines, Mega-series figurines, hanging cards, articulated action figures, diorama figurines, Mini Figures and other figurine-related products
Defect Identification Standards
(1) Functional Issues (Part Fractures/Unstable Standing) Non-human-induced fractures; inability to stand upright; instability with wobbling even when able to stand.
(2) Appearance Defects (Scratches or Scuffs/Surface Stains or Oil Spots) Extensive scratches, scuffs, stains or oil spots on the surface.
(3) Explanation of Special Circumstances The following scenarios are considered normal, meet the quality standards, and are not covered by after-sales services: Since some parts of the products are manually spray-painted and assembled, certain individual differences may occur, including variations in color intensity and tightness. For products using special techniques (such as color-changing paint), due to irresistible factors like time passage and temperature differences, the effect of the technique will gradually decline. This is considered normal and not within the scope of after-sales services.
② Type 2
Product: Plush dolls, vinyl plush toys, cotton dolls
(1) Defect Identification Standards
Irrecoverable tilting or uneven legs even after adjustment.
Extensive scratches or scuffs on the vinyl faces.
Product fractures, seam openings, filling exposure, or severe hair loss caused by non-human factors.
Printing errors, missing prints, or significant misalignments in areas with printed patterns.
(2) Explanation of Special Circumstances
The following scenarios are considered normal, meet the quality standards, and are not covered by after-sales services:
During the production of plush products, various processes are used. Minor scratches, black spots, scuffs, stains, and hair loss are normal phenomena and not within the scope of after-sales services.
Plush products are soft items. Slight deformation may occur due to bumps and squeezes inside the packaging during logistics transportation. Consumers can manually adjust the products to restore their original shapes.
Most plush products are sewn by hand during the manufacturing process. It is normal to have pressed fur, loose threads, or slightly uneven sewing lines at the stitched parts.
Issues such as wear, discoloration, and scratches that may occur during use are considered normal product wear and tear, not quality problems.
2.7 Other Issues
