Default Zipang 2 (SCZP-2000) first impressions

Hi, I finally arrived the Zipang 2 probably it's the twenty-ninth because the serial number shows this code *SCZP00000029AE* (Progressive Code?)


My Impressions:

Good
Silent fan, you hear only with the ear attached to the fan.
Good air flow even when the fan is silent.
Very solid fin, do not bend easily.
Perfect assembly and materials of excellent quality.
Lightweight for its size and very low height(my impression)


Bad
The copper baseplate(not aluminum) is very thin(2mm). Thicker (4/5mm) could not be done?
Clip fan, difficult to detach the fan from the heatsink.
Clips for Amd, do not allow the positioning as the heatpipe vertically, as we recommended in the manual--> http://www.scythe.co.jp/manual/zipang2-manual.pdf but only in horizontal.
Little thermal grease


Congratulations Scythe, an good product worthy successor of Zipang.



EDIT:
What is this? Bad Bad the air is heated through fin
