Coleturner: very nice bro! some of what you have there are consider hard to find zoids. I am glad people are contributing to this thread.

Xnyhc73: HMM can get at XL-shop & robotica Subang jaya now, but ealier i got them from singapore and YJA (especially the limiteds). My sig is running out of space after i build my Geno breaker lol. If you have problems obtaining them let me know i can help source.

I intend to have a more depth discussion for this new V3 thread, instead of "wah, oooo, OMG, nice, good, great, how much, where to get?....." replies. I hope everybody agrees with me. blush.gif

At this juncture i wish i have a good display for my zoids collection. It's getting massively big at the moment and my baby is coming along soon. The dust is the main problem although most shelves are sealed in transparent book wrappers (got the idead from ahtiven). I may have to move my collection to another room so that my baby stuff can be place there and have a healthy environment. I've actually lost count of my zoids numbers, presumely 400+ and counting. I will know once i moved them to the spare room i have.

Faizzaki: Where did you get that glass windowed shelf?

Another thing about collecting zoids, friends, made some good friends. We are not big, but thats our strongest point, we are closely knitted. Our motto is not about building an empire for zoids but bringing awareness and creating friendship.

let me just borrow this from ZP forum "Make a ZOIDS friend first. Buy a ZOIDS toy later".


OK, i just bought the Geno breaker, it cost me RM328. I know in Penang you can get it for RM300. It's a heavy box and much bigger than all the HMM boxes i have. The plastic sprues are filled to the top, i bet this has the most parts of any HMMs, i may be wrong but i will count the parts when i build it....NAH! tongue.gif HMM is a great line and is improving. Improving in the sense, structural design on body segments and limb. They are more sturdier now compared to those of HMM Shield Liger, Blade Liger and Command wolf.

Hey all,

I am fairly into zoids.  I had a bazillion when I was younger...trying to find them now in a basement that might as well be defined as "junk yard".

I was wondering where you guys order your zoids now?

When i was young I just got them at walmart and what not...(I'm in the U.S.)

Now I don't see them sold anywhere and was just wondering whats the best website that is trustworthy and has decent prices.

I Really like the HMM zoids, they are sick. 

So any help is appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Xnyhc73: hey there welcome to LYN ZOids Club. The best and trusted site to order now would be www.HLJ.com
and the direct link to zoids HLJ ZOIDS HMM They have almost complete list of HMM zoids there is.

i like the word bazillion, if you've spent your childhood int he 80's im sure those bazillion zoids you have would have worth bazillion Dollars! LOL

MOgenthau: So can i put you name in the confirmed list? Bring yourself and your modellers brain is good enough for us.

Coleturner: Yea building HMM has a strain on every part of your body. My eyes gets blurry and i can't look at the manual afar. Every parts completed you need to get up and walk around, smoke or something. I had this phobia sometimes, when you open the box and close it back immediately and wait for another day.

I can see that you can buy the Cannon Tortoise but I'm not seeing anything on the Buster Tortoise.

Yea no one has an official confirmation when it will be released. It will come as separate unit unlike the molga. Only pictures are shown in Japan Exhibition. Until further notice we will know of the exact release date.

yes, all of you well spoken. HMM really very challenging, many small detail parts and very interesting. I too also enjoy building it, but if I am not in a good mood, better don't do, sure the result will not be so good. take our own sweet time assemble it. The end result will be very rewarding.

Anyone ever used leoshop.com to buy zoids before?  Just curious if it is reliable...I am trying to find the Schwalz Saber Tiger for less than $100 USD with shipping.

I've not bought from leoshop before but they have been around for many years and i've heard many time over, they are legit.

Answered my question above, thank you.  The only thing is the first link you have there doesn't give me the price on shipping, which I guess the item would be shipped out of Japan.
*
www.1999.co.jp : hmmm i thought they are only for japan orders.

The Online Sellers you need to stay away from of are:
# TISINC99.com (US)
# Toy's N Joy's (US)

the reflector use to minimize the shadow. as you can see very strong light coming from the window. Yes, you can use camera flash light direct to the object, but it will leave a very strong white light at the object and the background will expose.
but if you try natural light source, defuse all the flashlight using umbrella. It will give more natural and killing look ! tongue.gif

as for Normal compact camera, try to use manual mode if you have one. If you can master aperture, shutter speed, iso , so yes you can produce almost the same quality.

It's just my 2cent opinion. I'm still learning photography

I'm not pro la ! I'm still learning . hihi. Glad that you guys enjoy my picture  rclxm9.gif
