oh my. Its huge ! I wonder where they kept it now.

I didn't get such luxury. Usually it was the belt for me if i decided to lie down unconditionally.

gundam76 Not so sure but it was a cheapass RM 350 thing. As long can shoot air can.

If you mean the old Jaya Jusco in Taman Tun, yeah, they had this awesome display in the middle of the toys department that I would just stand there and stare at it.

I would just sigh and walk off with my dad!

HAHAHA Yes Jaya Jusco Taman Tun Dr. Ismail, i once lived there Lorong Datuk Sulaiman 8. I go there almost everyweekend those days, lucky for me 10 childhood zoids survived! If it's not for my younger brother and my mum i would have more!

HEY Welcome to the LYN Zoids thread DUKE!

I remember you saying to stay away from Tisinc99. Why is that? Is the cheap prices to good to be true?

thanks my man

Not a problem xD...also it looks fairly cheap compared to some of the others.

well, the reason they are selling cheap is that possiblility they order in bulk, it is cheaper.

But bear in mind, the handling charges is very expensive, almost can buy another models...

well from what I saw it depends on the weight...for the sheild liger it is only like 17$ to the US

so for the command wolf it is prob the same as the others which would be around $12 to the US which is fairly cheap from other places.

but for say the geno breaker or schwalz saber the shipping is around 40-50$ to US because they are much heavier I guess.

Yes...you are definitely right. The handling charges is base on the weight. If can, buy from shopping centre shops. If not, you have to pay extra $$ for the delivery cost and it is a pain.

To be honest, here in the US zoids are not really sold anywhere, at least not that I can find. A while back they were sold everywhere but it seems no one has a interest for them here

Tisinc99, I've been to a couple of forums which mentioned that they are poor at servicing customers, shipping delays, un-updated site and goods not being delivered. These are asiantic forums who experience these problems. BUT it may not be the case for US ORDERS. It is best that you write to them inquiring your intention to purchase. If there's respond then good, if there's no respond then make your own decision.


Picture Spam:
Look what i found, this is a pretty close custom Iron Kong that appeared in the marketing poster of DARK ZOIDS releases.
