1st I've heard of it! I'd like to know more as well. Hey! Please make them put a red ultra to catalog specifications in it. I was saddened by the last core box having the elephant in blue when I already had it in that color. I know most would rather have it that way, but I was in need of the red oer one.

We haven't heard any information on this Core Box yet, other than that it has entered the planning phase. However, the tag line "Machine Beast New Century" is tied to the NJR era, and was used as the Japanese title for the Zoids Chaotic Century manga. So I'd expect whatever it comes with to be NJR focused, as much of the anniversary has been focused on the anime era.

I still can't get over that the NJR/NAR era of Zoids was over 20 years ago... That being said, I'd be down for some re-releases from that era, maybe a book with some promotional photos and NJR boxart. If they were to package a Zoid in with a 40 years Core Box, I'd almost guarantee it'd be Liger Zero or Ban's Blade Liger. Then again, Mammoth was kind of a weird choice for the last one; would've made more sense to go with Gojulas, I'd think.

They have played that damn card way too much!I've always been more of a fan of the dinos and mythical creatures myself. Hense my fondness for my gunny! I've missed out on quite a bit of the 40th anniversary goodies. I want some of the shirts, the umbrella, the stainless steel cup and a few other goodies. But they are trickling into the auctions and mercari. I did get the patch set and both judges stand ups. So they likely will see what over stock they have from the event enough wise to put into a box and then throw something else into it to make it wanted. Idk |

I'm having to come to terms with the fact that what I want is a unified army of zoids, not just a few iconic mecha that I remember, in new and better forms. There are some zoids that I feel could use a second pass, but they should still fit in with the originals that I have dozens of. These masterpiece ones are amazing, but at those prices it's ever gonna happen. Even cut in half

Every new release starts with a damn kitty-cat and then it ends because nobody bought it. Sigh. Anyway, I wouldn't get my hopes up too high for anything better than the AZ Zoids. So far we've got those, and these lame ZW recolors with the "40" sticker - if they were going to do anything bigger than that, I think it would've been announced by now - the year's almost over. I will happily eat crow if they announce a Masterpiece Deathsaurer tomorrow, but I kinda doubt it. |
