As you requested silverliger ^_~
Tomy has put out 3 small, posable die cast and plastic blade ligers of the years- red, blue and the more recent but harder to find mirage. The first two were convention limiteds if my memory serves me, the mirage was a liited edition item that was sold with zoids struggle. All three of them are often sold absurdly overpriced online. But Yurei did not pay too much, oh no.... ;D
Anyway, like his red and blue bretheren, BLM is very similar with a diecast head, plastic legs and body, plastic tail, metal blades and hip armor.
He has quite a bit of articulation including a tail, 4 legs, and 4 feet all mounted on ball joints as well as a posable head. The blades though sadly cannot be posed. Unlike my other two tomicas though, my mirage is *a lot* more posable. I'd describe him as being "looser" for lack of a better word. Especially his head. Everything moves less stiffly and more freely, which makes for more poses but a harder time keeping him in said poses.
Assembly time? About 30 seconds. He requires his feet and tail be put on, and that's all. His tail was a lot easier to put on than my other 2 bladies' as well...
Overall rating- highly reccomended, if you love posable, unmotorized zoids and are willing to hunt for one. They're hard to find in online stores and expensive when you do find one, but you can find them cheap every so often on ebay.
Size comparison:
Frolic, I command thee!
