Those are quartz halogen bulbs and must not be touched by your fingers. The oils off your hand will cause them to explode, and you are supposed to change the bulbs by using the cardboard sleeve in which they are shipped and then remove them.
If you've touched the bulbs they will explode. If you haven't, then try to find replacements made in Japan not China. The Chinese made bulbs are a pice of C**p.
