I have not built my IKSS but heres my assumptions.

the power difference could be due to the motor within. The one that spins all the gears. If you want to you could remove the motor from the NJR replace it into IKSS engine and see what happens.

I am also unsure if IKSS has the same gear box build inside. Sometimes difference sizes gears influences the speed of the zoids. You could open up and have a look snap some pictures and enlighten us with your review.

I will build my IKSS soon, i will find out for myself.

I belief there are 15-16 heads all together including the limiteds.

Those are not customs la, they are available at retail. What im saying is there are heads which are limited release for this series at convention and such.

The Zoids statue figure are very nice too. Kindredd has some displayed at his house.

I just got this, been waiting to get my hands on it since last year! Finally mine!
Limited Red Shield Liger Leon

Will build and show later.

Well ive heard the Hasbro doesnt come with the Van, Fiona and Zeek, choking hazard. Also one major difference is Hasbro red liger has yellow plastic fangs and feet for safety reasons. The legs are grey compared to the tomy version are black.

That is why i wanted this limited so badly. GOLD DIECAST & PILOTS!! It has darker red than the hasbro version.

The parts for DS Head gun is hard to find bro. Rear gun some can get off Saber or Red Horn.

Since you asked i will show you once i built it in a moment. BUT its definitely not similar what soever at all with the SLCSP color. Well i'll show.

in the mean time. Kindredd would love this!
Got this off from the net

prebuilt bootleg. I saw this once on ebay 2 years back. If it comes out again will probably grab it.

Buyus really salute you man! those are really good paintjobs on such a small figure. I took a look again on the figures can't imagine how you did it? Magnifying glass by any chance? I use my magnifyer to paint the normal pilots yet don't get that detail like yours. Again really good job, hats off to you. Would like to see more of you work.

Ahtiven i really hope we can get that bootleg from the hypermarts! Looks great man.

Ok Rider here's the comparison, Ahtiven knows my collection too well, Yuki Kaida BL Mirage stay MIB for now.

I got 4 and half rolls out from this fella

yea i just said 4 and half rolls.

I have no idea how many roll counts but i do know is more when TT posted the prototype on the website.

Built this as well. at first i couldnt figure out why he is moving backwards. Then it occured to me that the socket for the power was inserted upsidedown.

wonder what causes the problem. I belief is the problem with the lift flap. Actually i tried removing some non essential parts from valga like the weapons and horns to reduce the weight and i got a half roll more.

even in YOutube doesnt show muc of valga in action
Valga Roll

Ahtiven thanks for sharing the IKSS custom cps they are indeed very nice painted as well.

This is a nice display of OLD MIB ZOIDS! Mint boxes

Dont worry bro, one fine day you will have them in your collection. Thats what i tell myself every time i see a zoids i really wanted. For instance my most recent was the red Blade liger limited, i waited for a year to get that, sometimes i get distracted by other zoids as well lol.

I dare to dream but also dare to fulfill my needs.

And zoids are meant to be built! Value at Minimum RM600-RM800+ MIB on YJA. And i rescued it from the 20 year old box!! The chrome is still excellent.
One of the most seek OJR, GodKaiser. He is one of the early 1989 Tyrant type zoids. I have only seen pictures of it but now im thrilled to have this at my grasp!


one issue puzzle me is it always has chrome silver not gold like whats on the box

hahaha you got me there, but hey when i really have a good home for them in display i will built them. 90% of my zoids are built
No harm showing off again, right?

"Yuji Kaida is a Japanese illustrator and mechanical designer. He has worked on numerous high-profile properties, including Godzilla, Macross, Gundam, Patlabor and Tomy's Zoids."
Imagine how much TOMY has paid him to illustrate the design for these limited series of zoids line. I was told that they are now valued at more than RM4000 whole set.

Bro give us the link better. Cant see the youtube.

Buyus nice work on the gattling. Come to think of it I like the speed IKSS is moving at. Not too in a hurry.

treat you with 2 OJRs for comparison

oops forgot to close up the DS tummy. Guess the pilot wanted to be in the picture too.
