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.

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.

Gotcha, that (this may sound weird) has always been my favorite zoid and I am extremely surprised they are making a HMM of it so I am psyched.

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)

Hasn't been a post on here since this morning so I figured I would get a discussion going.

For those of you into the HMM, what is the next zoid you want done?

I wouldn't mind a bigger one like a dark horn or gojulous. Or maybe a well done Gun Sniper.

BIG as in HMM King G? But lets be practical, judging from the trend they are going, anime zoids are likely to be in their production plan. Big HMM i will bet on Deathsaurer or Gojulas. Medium zoids Dibison or Red Horn (dark horn will be limited release), Small Zoids gunsniper.
*
Yea most of the ones done now are from anime except I don't know if I have ever seen the sheild liger mk II in an episode. I wonder how many they are going to do from the CC series. I heard Irvines command wolf should be coming before to long.

yes, HMM CW Irvine

MKII SL & CW LC was part of the release cos the mould was already there and for them to max. profit.

WHen did they put that on the website? I was looking yesterday and it wasn't there.

Still...for me...Buster tortoise>Irvine's wolf

I think they took it off the website at some point, thats what I read at least...I could be wrong

And I have yet to spend anything on them, I want to but shipping stuff to the US is not cheap at all...

Bro, don't fret, have you ever tried EBAY? If you're in the US it should not be a problem to u at all.

Ebay HMMs

Yea, I have tried a little on ebay. I did find a sheild liger for $46.99 with free shipping from hong kong...But I don't know if I can trust that...I mean shipping form there to here is close to $40.

If you are paying through paypal it is pretty safe.  Ebay rating are pretty important too, you can see the number of stars or numbers of transaction being done on the seller. BUT its totally up to your own judgement.

HK or Malaysia shipping to US is pretty much the same. The price you stated presumed EMS but if given a choice go for normal registered postage SAL would cost much lesser. Could take up 2-3 weeks before it reaches u. Plus it might not be recognizable upon reaching ur door step. DBR (Damage beyond recognition) hehe. Ordering from online shops will give u a best bet of getting ya stuff intact and in good condition cos they are bound to customer satisfaction priorities.
*
Well I emailed the guy/ebay shop and they said it would be packaged very well and would still be shipped for free but then again they could not speak english well at all so idk haha...xD I do want the box intact so I'll probably just wait and buy from HLJ so I know I will get my stuff properly.

I really want the schwarz saber tiger but good lord...I'm lucky if I find it for less than 100$ but the price will probably drop shortly (I hope).

BTW Ed I noticed in your sig there is no Cannon Tortoise...Have you not gotten your hand on one yet? Or are they still on pre-order status?

HMM Schwarz saber for less than USD100 is possible that would be inclusive of shipping.

Cannon Torts was just announce 3 days back. I was hoping that it reaches singapore first but owners there have said that it will take another week or so. Fingers cross.
*
I wanna find it for less including shipping so I will have to wait a good while.

I'm not liking the Cannon Tort that much to tell you the truth. But the Buster Tort...I believe that is what it is call (the Cannon Tort with huge Gun on it) I will gladly pay 100$ for haha.

Also another quick question do you use additional paint or molding materials on your HMM's or is that how they come?

I will be getting this but won't be touching it in a while... In fact, I won't be even building another Command Wolf in a long time.....

Why not? If you don't mind me asking.

Also Ed, Thanks for the guidance biggrin.gif

I might order the schwalz saber soon. Depends on when the Buster Tort comes out because if it is coming out like the beginning of April and it will be expensive I will go with that one first.

How long did it take for it to get to your house? I guess they ship out of Japan.

Xnyhc, to better give u an indication of how much u will end up paying upon ordering from HLJ, using SAL parcel to MALAYSIA. This is the price i paid for AB Leon, though it cost slightly lesser than Sabre Schwarz about 400yen difference. That's just my assumption but it's all up to u to decide. Im just giving u a guidance.

First off, I edited post above so take a look at that and what exactly does SAL stand for?
