The Double-Sworder. It is easily my favorite zoid, for the following reasons: A-He's a stag beetle and I love anything that has to do with a bug, and B- he's SOOOOO much cooler than saicurtis. First of all, his wings don't flap like saicurtis', but there are little orange conceiled wings that can be folded out for...well, flight! His mandibles also pinch together by utilizing a clever little mechanism which gives the impression of guns deploying and retracting from the head. And, like Saicurtis, it walks, but I'm not a really big fan of the walking motion because the middle pair of legs don't move. It has an open cockpit, which I, unlike most people, like. I recently got the CP-07, the bomber unit, and it looks AWESOME!!! The only thing I regret is that I lost the antennae, but I'm hoping to find some at the shopping part of this forum. I really liked the blue color scheme, but since I lost the antennae I painted it black and silver, which doesn't look too bad, but it doesn't go with the bomber unit! GOOD: Excellent design, many features for a small wind-up. Looks great with the bomber unit! BAD: Not very good walking motion. Small antennae tend to fall of and get lost. WIERD- Nothing to say here.

Doublesworder is pure swesomeness. That is all I have to say.
If you don't buy one, you are missing out on a work of art.

doublesworder is great! I don't like open cockpits, but it's not like it could probably fly all that fast anyway. It's a zoid-jeep!

...I actually like Saicurtis better. But they're both awesome and buggy in different ways and rather neglected.
If you need help with getting the pics shrunk/uploaded/etc. once you've got them on the computer, poke me.

you can get one for $15 dollars counting shipping from wall of fame, or you go onto ebay and type in "double-sworder," and it will probably bring up one item, that being from jedi bill's zoids. There you can purchase one for $20 counting shipping. That's where I got mine!

Actually, can someone tell me how to get the pics onto the forum? I have them, but I don't know what to do with them!

Upload them onto a photobucket account.

You need to be linking to the photo pages, not just the images themselves, or Flickr may get a bit cross...when you're on your photo's page, you should see a "different sizes" link. Poke that, you'll see two codes. You want the one that looks like this:
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pointytilly/229015149/" title="Photo Sharing"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/80/229015149_06f8707fc4.jpg" width="344" height="500" alt="Riding Gunbluster" /></a>
Which you can mutate to work on Proboards by doing this:
[url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/pointytilly/229015149/] [img]http://static.flickr.com/80/229015149_06f8707fc4.jpg[/img] [/url]
