Hi, am new to this ZOIDS ver.4 thread.

Thanks riderTEKRAN. biggrin.gif Been looking at this thread but kept quiet as I have nothing much to share. @_@ Only started assembling them last year end with only buster tortoise and 2 command wolves completed so far.

Not sure if I should start with Geno Saurer cos I dont have any place to display them..and Geno Saurer is huge..@_@

It's ok guys. I"ll be looking into hardware shops and looking for some wires or cables to replace it.

Replacement parts..what I heard is it could take up to a few months just to get it as people say that one has to wait for the factory to produce it one go. If the orders are not many they might not produce it even.

The Panzer unit has so much more gimmicks.. <3 but was wondering if some of the missiles needed to be painted individually or not..?

And there's still no update on the STK Liger Zero Schneider..yet. So eager to get that.. >,<

Oh! They have it there? O_O I went here last year and didn't go there cos it's abit far from where i am unless I'm around there.

Appreciate bro Mooncake! biggrin.gif Thanks for the info!

Yeah, i just remembered that panzer armor has got more gimmicks tongue.gif
Knowing kotobukiya, missiles shud come in individual form or if it's in one piece of plastic, shud be prepainted laugh.gif
Think Panzer kit is gonna b the most expensive of all the three armor kitsĀ  sweat.gif
*
Yea, since now Koto is up to doing pre-painted stuff...so..hopefully they pre-paint the missiles. It's a pain to colour them each.. XD

Also, I hope those missile pods with the open-n-close gimmicks are not loose.. @_@

The price..it's 7665 yen..so roughly rm288.25.

Those who want to know in detail about the zoids leave me a PM. Or any capable people here like Ridertekran or Ahtiven are masters in zoids as well.

Hope i didn't poison damage anyone after this post. kekeke

I didn't keep in touch with zoids from 2002 or so...till last year end.. XD

And those we seek for now are all on the high side. @_@

Zoids Blox Diploguns was my last zoids back then and after that I didn't see anymore zoids in stores.

I'm not a 100% fans. And I know nothing about the anime series so.. XD

When HMM was first released I did look into them. And yes, I do follow up with the HMM line though my last HMM was Leena's Gun Sniper since it's quite expensive. I also hope the future HMM line will improve in the articulation department that since TOMY bought back the license to produce HMM from Koto..

We started back on Zoids as there are some things that zoids can offer other mechas can't.

I do look up a few places for reviews and such, with Dalong one of them. smile.gif Appreciate the link there Hitsugayat10.

Welcome, Collin to LYN Zoids. Er...which one is your nick again?

@Edmaestro: Did you happen to get those Kotobukiya Zoids rings?
If you have any leads on Genesis Brastle for sale, PM me, please.

For those who thought it was a cruel hoax:

I forgot what's the name of the HMM there.. Looks ok though. Hope they improve on the articulations.

Chrome D-style..not my kind of thing.. Perhaps like what hitsugayat10 mentioned, it would be nice if the claws and fangs are chromed.

Bro Mooncake showing some poison. XD

Hi all..been lurking here for a long time.

Thinking of getting STK Command Wolf (White) to start as my first Zoid..what do you guys think? Can't afford the Koto set..so yeah. I know there might be some details missing, but hopefully it isn't that bad.

I've got a SD Blade Liger sitting on my desk, but it looks so lonely..haha.

Go for it. Or in fact...get Barad's version. biggrin.gif

Hahaha..don't really fancy a Blue Command Wolf >< and a little too lazy to repaint the whole thing lol! But see how..

XD No worries. Take your time to decide.

The missing details not much unless you have ori to compare it and it's not that obvious. smile.gif

You can check the review I did for the Blue Command Wolf. There are some users who also shared a couple of photos of the white one too. biggrin.gif

Yup, I read your review quite a long time ago. Now only decide to get because got some extra income this month haha. Bought myself a few other kits already. Feel like starting on Zoids. Are the kits much more complicated compared to a Gunpla MG kit?
*
Depends on how you see it. In my opinion, koto kits, especially for their armored core & HMM zoids line, have good part separation. Lots of tiny parts and runners. It takes some time, so be patient and one will be very happy with the end results. wink.gif [ I took a week or so to finish it and i spend 2 - 3 hours on it.]

It takes much more time to assemble as compared to assembling a MG gunpla. Like I mentioned in the final review, one might need to glue some parts as some parts are abit loose or might pop out if you play with it too much, and the koto counterpart also have problems like this, so it's not an issue to me.

So far, the zoids line is doing fine. As for other koto stuff...so far there are 2 kits which I have that have missing parts.

http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10056986 you can click to see the manual here bro. biggrin.gif

I started zoids again as I wanted some variety in my collection. thumbup.gif

I have always been a Zoids fan, went so far to play the Japanese GBC game back in 2000+ eventho I didn't understand back then. Just wishing they'd have Murasame Liger or Soul Tiger kits =X

Thinking of getting Zoids for quite a while, only now decided on it though. ^^; Want some variation on my shelf too, all I have now is LBX and Gundams haha.
*
I only have a handful of LBX.. XD ok, out of topic. So yea, get the Command Wolf bro! biggrin.gif

@riderTEKRAN:

Wow..nice to see that Dibison is getting into the HMM line. biggrin.gif

Hope Koto makes the joints more articulated so it could do more posing and such. biggrin.gif

That's some pretty neat add-on for the Lightning Saix. biggrin.gif

Also finished my Gun Sniper Leena Custom few weeks ago and having some trouble keeping the weapons on it as they tend to fall off, since i pulled out the joint that holds the huge beam gatling guns on the sides as the movement is limited due to the missile racks it carries at the side of the legs..

Thinking whether I should just super glue it..?

@cryonic:
Great grabs!
Ya. You have too many 24-scale Republic pilots. You're Deathpion pilot sure get ganged up on. Good thing Wave Dontress will have a giant to help out there.

About the "Made in Japan", I think it's found only on one of the sprue corners?
I don't believe the 80s 1/24 scale were Singapore or Thailand produced yet.
@KPG123: Leena Sniper does look sad without all the guns. Take the ones from your STK version and supersize the weapons payload! Leena will be very happy.

I've been reading that a lot of HMM modelers have to glue pieces on their Zoids. Would it affect the posability very much if you do it?

=====

The Lightning Saix is supposed to be Irvine's in Chaotic Century (or is it Guardian Force?). I'm just hoping that the armour will be sold separately as well since I already have an HMM Saix that's in stasis.
*
So far..the HMM kits that I've assembled [Buster Tortoise; 2 Command Wolves and Leena's Gun Sniper] they are fine and no loose parts, other than the STK Barad's Comamnd Wolf having loose joints but it's fine. And..when i heard that STK is going to release the Leena's Gun Sniper i went wtf... shocking.gif

I didn't get the STK Leena's Gun Sniper..since I have the koto's one already.. ^^;;

For Leena's Gun Sniper, the loads of weapons will definitely hinder the posability of the model kit cos is big and if you pull out the support that holds the beam gatling guns to the max, the Gun Sniper's legs could move just out a lil bit. Plus the weapons tend to fall off like I mentioned previously.

Hmm..probably might super glue it..for the Gun Sniper's best I guess.. XD

=====

Ah ok. The armor parts for the Lightning Saix looks neat though. tongue.gif Thanks for pointing it out which series it comes from bro riderTEKRAN! biggrin.gif
