Looks like they are doing some things right.... and like they are planning to really futz the line at the same time (zip-racers, pull toys and such will, in all likelihood, not see a dime from me)
Still, there is a lot of promise in some of these designs. Those little ones look to be almost evo-drive/remote models.... hmm.

Some of that concept art looks awesome. The interchangable chassis types seem interesting and I see a gorilla type with wheels. The frog is very cool. How exactly are these pictures getting leaked?

Some of those Zoids, namely the two being used in some sort of gladitorial arena, seem to be the "old" Zoid types that pre-dated the Godos, with its enclosed cockpit. I sense a prequel of sorts coming on...fascinating.

. . . Oooookay. These are certainly weird. A subline, perhaps? Iunno.
The designs are attractive, especially that spider, but... y'gotta wonder how big these are gonna be, how much they'll cost, and how prevalent they'll be in the line.
At least it's SOMETHING to reboot the normal line, right?

Reminds me of SMACKY! Zoids or whatever.

The top is no doubt Zoids and man they look cool!
The stuff at the bottom doesn't really strike me as mecha. In fact, they looks like some anime I might have watched back around Bubblegum Crisis days.
Oh! Dominion Tank Police! Bonaparte will finally have some company!

My brain's thoughts on the dinos went like this:
"Hey, they're holding their hands better. The organoids coulda learned from that.
....wait, wheels. What the frick?"
I like the frog. Please stay a windup, froggy!

I get a bad feeling that those zoids with the chassis are gonna be Cyber Drive/Battlebot type zoids. I hope that they're a little side thing, not the primary focus.

The wheely things might not come to anything. And even if they do, we still have new traditional Zoids to look forward to (the frog, crab, crayfish etc).

The best picture is the first one, you can see the lizard(reminded me of heldignner) the frog, the crab, the spider, the lobster, the fish down and the dinosaur with a Zoids 03 on it. But don't like the wheels so much. Anyway let's wait, when it is finished we can talk.
PS: I didn't never like neo blox, the only zoids line I didn't like
