Thanks! Actually I wanted to upload a picture of my collections for sharing (I am not a professional photographer like you)... but somehow I can't load it (any file size/type limitation?). Perhaps I can try again later today.

no file size limitation but you can ONLY post 10pictures MAX in a reply. If you want to post more wait for someone to reply then post again.

All those parts are European edition? Wowee, dude. This makes it your second Zabre, yes?

Just thought I'd share my latest build: Taylor Swift's "White Horse"

Another nice grab there Ed.

Haha....rider's Gilvy is afraid of the American pony( coz it has America flag colours )

Manage to spend a night at rider's house and shot photos of the giant Zoids together in a row. Finally got to see the saiz comparison of the 5 giant zoids with my own eyes. From Right to left : Mad thunder The warrior, Ultar saurus the wise, King Gojulas the King, Death saurer the crooked, Gilvader the destroyer and last but not least TDP's Saber Tiger the BRAVE.



The duel

Hmmm did you edit the picture, orudios color looks weird.

Hi, guys. Zoids newbie here. I buy TRansformers movie toys but what's so special about Zoids to you guys? Thanks.

OMG I like this haha! Classics, some more on top of the King's palace. (box). Cool effects as well!

@Rider
The Orudious looks brighter than usual. I think its the camera overexposed or photoshopped went wrong. The Gilvader's color looks strange as well.

@lowyatben
Unlike Transformers, most of the Zoids move, chomp, crawl, or even scream and etc. Which is COOL and SPECIAL.

Do they transform?
Which are the more popular figures?
Is there going to be a movie?

Hi there lowyatben,

I too collect Tf movie toys, the hunt still going for the TF ROTF figures. But for Zoids its something special in all the heat of Zoids lovers. They are amusing and nostalgic toys, agree with my bro ahtiven, Zoids move, chomp, crawl, or even scream, they also can fuse each other to form other kind of zoids, Zoids got cp (customize part) and upgrade parts to make them look better, faster and stronger.

Apparently there is no Zoids movie this moment, hopefully one day. But their got best ever anime series with great ZOIDS machines and exciting story line and also hot anime chicks hihi......

What can I say, Zoids rock. You should try to own one and FEEL the power. It will flow trough your blood and veins.

Lastly Zoids are toys to be pleasured.

Thanks, ahtiven and buyus15tuyus.

So what anime is the best?

And which are the more popular, fan-favourite figures?

@Ahtiven, Edmaestro: Yes. Had to brighten up the picture a bit otherwise the Talk bubbles would be too bright. Still learning the photoedit software as well. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the colours to come out right on the camera. Bright Blue Gilvader horns? What the *TOOT*?!

Request to official Zoids photographer, bro Faizzaki:
Need your professional advice on doing model photoshoots on a budget! The digital camera I have does not have a Macro setting. But it was free, so I'm not complaining.

Anyone want to sponsor me a proper toy-taking camera?

@lowyatben:
Welcome to Zoids! I hope that it surpasses all other "Toy" pleasures for you.

I love Zoids because:
(a). Nostalgia - loved them since I built my first one. Can't remember what it was - maybe Megatopros. Most probably OER Mammoth the Destroyer!
(b). You build them then get to see them move. Some of the mechanisms are incredible, like King Gojulas' cam gear operations.
©. With over 25 years of history to it, there are so many choices of Zoids to admire. With the Kotobukiya HMMs, I believe the attraction just got wider, not just limited to motor-box geeks like myself.

I still adore Transformers, by the way. Great resale value and those boxy G1s are less fragile for play. Unfortunately, at the moment I have to limit the amount of money I send to the Japanese. I think I'll start Masterpiece series next year.

Dispelow is a triple-changer and some Blox Zoids combine but it's a matter of taking apart pieces and putting them back together in different combinations. Fuzors Gravity Zoids probably count as transformers.

I'm not too sure about Popular figures. Maybe the big, motorised ones like King Gojulas, Gilvader, Sturm Tyrann, etc. But HMM Zoids are poseable, albeit at the sacrifice of movement.

They have been official animes for Zoids:
1. Chaotic Century
2. Guardian Force
3. New Century Zero
4. Zoids Fuzors
5. Zoids Genesis

Bro Kindredd's probably writing the script for the movie to be shot at the next Malaysian Zoiders meet. That was a fun, fun day.

lowyatben: Our fellow zoiders probably covers everything well at least the surface about zoids. But one thing they miss out is brotherhood. We are TIGHT!

Er...haven't we got some "Sisters" lurking here as well?
Hello, Mrs Tan. Thank you for starting your husband on his chromies binge.

Rider: Your camera definitely needs a fix, the orudios color looks flat.
mine




ahtiven... hehe

We are so small that we can count with 10 fingers.

What Mrs. Tan? who? hahhaha

Ed, on behalf of rider the camera is fine but is only 5 mp and its mine . I admit is not sharp enough to take good pictures. Here I think is the best pic I can find from my camera shot for rider's Orudios during my stay at his house. Hope one day I can get a good camera to take good photos.

Hehehe no worries. was just teasing.

Hehe Ed
yours OJR Orudious is as clean as the RCZ! Shiny shiny gem. Without the manual, one cannot tell which decade the Orudious was from! xD

Including those lurkers, we are not be able to count with 10 fingers liao.

@buyus
MP aka megapixels are actually determining the size of the picture not the sharpness. Bro Faiz please correct if I'm wrong. I think to take good, sharp picture, a proper lighting is very important. Hence most of the good toy pics came from studio with proper lighting setup. How about you try taking them pictures again under natural sunlight? Outcome could be waaaay different bro.

NEWS FLASH! ZOIDS seen again in departmental store!
One (1) CP08 Pile Bunker for Rev Raptor and Iguan at Parkson, Riverside, Kuching. Seems to be old retail price though. No discount. So sad.

And before anyone asks - NO. No other CPs. Was scrounging around there to see if there were any others but unfortunately, takda.
Kedah, Kelantan ada Zoidskah? Please, share share.

About picture lighting - only have flourescent light at home. Can use ah, bro faizzaki?
