Thanks. smile.gif

There's one Bigasaurus on ZP for sale, but to my dismay he never responded to my messages. Guess I need to leave my signature with "Stephanie" and re-try again. Was watching that old rusty and dusty Bloody DS like a hawk. Will be more than happy to become its adopted new "father" if given a chance. :rolls:

Ramar is the band with their "Wild Flower" featured in the ending of Zoids anime.

It's actually quite good, and the band had a reboot recently if I recall it correctly.

Edit: Nevermind, pre-ordered both DS and BL. happy.gif Ultrasaurus d-style bilaaaaaa?

I don't think the name "Ramar" appears in any of the Zoids anime.
As far as I can tell, the goldish Shield Liger was part of the Japanese band's promotion item. Kinda like the Linkin Park exclusive Gundam, I guess.

Linkin Park exlusive Gundam? o.o. btw, wasn't Wild Flower a song from Ramar? They should credit the band at the ending credits, can't prove it no anime here.


btw, how much(reasonable) would you guys pay for MIB this? Assume we all had the money.

Can anyone help with the comparison between the various TS motors released thus far?

@Ahtiven:
As for MIB Bloody DS - would RM250 be too unreasonable?
I wish I could spend more on Zoids nowadays but there's impending house renovation to think about.
When are you completing Valga so that I can get it off of you at built price?  tongue.gif
*
A comparison? Aren't all of them TS motors are of a same build? Barrigator's TS motor would fit in Gul Tiger and vice versa. I've got a pretty acute memory for them motors but I can volunteer to open up my RCZ boxes for confirmation if you really want to know. laugh.gif

RM250 would be an insult to BDS don't you think? That big boy was released in 2003 with 3000 boxes worldwide by Toy's Dream Project and was never reissued unlike Neptune, Whitz Tiger Immitate, Proto Gojulas Giga etc. Which to say, only a very very small marginal percentage of the people who collect Zoids even have BDS displayed in their collection, let along a MIB one. On top of that, a tiny 15cm Kamen Rider figurine would cost you RM250 nowadays. Just a little annoyed because BDS is still by far, one of my holy grails, even a built one hovers around RM300-400.

And congratulations on the house! Can I pay you a visit? biggrin.gif and Valga remains in the box until I got my own place/shelves.

Theres so many exclusive and limited HMM zoids now.. does it make a difference? Probably Less than RM200 would be reasonable.. point here is I dont think many people in Malaysia knows enough about this band.. and whether they are famous enough to make an impact here..hence the expensive price... so I guess some suppliers would bring it in but I doubt it would sell.. even some of the other regular zoids are still on the shelf and they are not moving.. hehe maybe I'm one of the few who do buy them.. but no time to fix...

There are people who collect entire series of HMM, they just don't show up in forums or too shy to drop a "Hi". Ha ha

Aiks - touched a raw nerve with Sir Ahtiven regarding Bloody DS.
@ahtiven: Every Zoids head is welcome to the house in S'wak, as long as you bring Zoids to play with. Really need to renovate with a basement just for my Zoids Vault.

They're nerves of steel, and I wasn't angry mang. lol

Zoids Vault and basement... is this something like what Bruce Wayne owns in The Dark Knight? That would be cool!

QUOTE(Cole Turner @ Aug 10 2011, 11:37 AM)
Can I just comment on the HMM's  to date. I just reealize the qulity is getting better! I just got the Liger zero with the schnider parts and the quality of the material seems to be better. It sticks easily and they dont tend to be loose. This is good for a HMM zoid! Comparatively when I first bought the Shield Liger, Blade Liger AB, Saber tiger Schwartz.. everything is loose.. you literally need to glue everything together!! But with the new liger zero.. its a big improvement.. or maybe I just got a decent piece which is not faulty.. overall I like the HMM Zoids better now.. just a note to collectors.. the earlier version will give you hell for sure.. you move one piece everything comes off!!! how annoying.. the recent saber tiger gold too had many improvements compared to the saber tiger schwartz.. they add in a few rubber pieces to make the parts stick together. But it still has a long way to go.. I cant stick my liger zero ears in place.. need super glue for sure!!

Glad to hear this from someone with first hand experience! Go Koto! I hope their D-Styles would be as good too.

the original Mugen's parts are too thick for this.. so it seems to be created from scratch. (could even be cardboard!) lol

Rider, I've spoken to Yap and I want to pay him a visit one day(was supposed to be last Sun night). you wanna join?

Cole, is that a custom made glass? Where did you get the trees and how the ground is made of? I would avoid sunrays to the Zoid though tongue.gif

Dstyle reaches XL already? No changes to its Preorder status yet. I did pre-order but they didn't ask me for payment so I don't know how their system works..

Rider do a review please! I know you have one lol.

I'm thinking to buy a Ikea detolf soon to house my grails.

I saw the XL specialized one cost RM50 but that's only for 1/6th figures. It's way too small for Zoids; Zoids need huge ass aquarium in upside down! LOL

Last two weekend's hauls.

Rumored to be a 2012 release. Personally, I feel that sooner or later HMM Gojulas, Madthunder and Deathsaurer will be released.

And I'll be getting HMM Deathsaurer 500% for sure because you know...

Any good sites other then ebay to purchase hmm and other high quality zoids?

Brick and mortar shops for HMM Zoids. Aplenty. Older Zoids you can try forums and individual collectors.

Saw the Dstyle Ultra already, ETA Winter 2012. Yes, wtf?

I didn't go but I'm betting on all my fingernails that there wasn't any single Zoids model featured.

Remember, we Zoiders are a niche community, something puny like Toy Fairs just doesn't cut it yo. xD

Btw, Dstyle Liger has arrived and [WTB] NJR Ultra.

Thanks Rider. I've BIN it via Celga. This is the last one I've left to complete my MISB Big 5 so willing to pay a little premium for it. The one from eBay goes for 500usd, that's absurd.

I've no idea why the price of Ultra goes that high everywhere, been monitoring Yahoo Auctions they always go for more than 10k Yen MISB. And half the price for a built one. I predict they will go higher in coming few years, NJR is the new OJR yo.

Next, WTB Gil Dragon. LOL

Holy marcaroni batman!

Just sent another email to Celga to put the purchase on hold. T_T. I didn't even read their shipping/handling policy. Oh crud. I hope they have not clicked the Order button. Awwwwww.

Edit: Heh, instant reply! They are processing the refund as we speak. ^^;

That's an awesome random assorted Zoids wallpaper dude!! So intense, never felt this kind of moment for a long time! ^o^ What Genting hauls huh?

Btw, Mandarake emailed me that they will get back to me whether the item is in stock in their Umeda store.. so not a 100% successful purchase yet. Bleh. From the hiragana,[未組立 箱イタミ] it's definitely unbuilt all right, but it states the box is damaged, but don't know how serious the damage is.

ADD:Ehhh it says Sold Out now after I submitted, plus it's from the first batch! I got to have a Ultrasaurus Trading Card if lucky LOL
