Nice to see that Koto is going to make the little guys too. I'm curious to the price of it. I can't imagine this little guy will cost much.

I ordinarily approve of two-for-one deals, but in this case I'd kind of like at least the option of just buying one or the other for half the price. :/ Guess I'm just not that crazy about Molgas. That said, they both look like quite nice kits so far, and it's good to see that the smaller, less-popular windups are getting some recognition in the HMM line.

I like Molga lots, but I think it's a silly choice for the HMM line over things like the little raptors and whatnot. You lose inchworm motion and get...um...really, there's not horribly much to pose, even if it can rear up.
Like Aardy, I'd rather just be able to buy one, because it still IS a Molga.

From the standpoint of production, making smaller kits allows a manufacturer to satisfy demand while working on a larger product (large - small - variant - large - small - variant....) The release of the Molga will very likely be a precursor to a variant (Great Saber) and then a large release (Red Horn?), the we will see another small unit (Guysack would rock!)
This is a nice kit- I do agree with the, "just make it one worm with the CP" idea, though. Also, the Molga may have great articulation, we just don't see it. After all, the weapon hatch isn't even shown open here. I really like the new design... MUCH more robust and intimidating!
Also, this would be the first HMM with the old style Zenebas clamshell head! We will probably see those sprues on many more kits.

Kind of Molga'd out myself. But, this shows they're still committed to the line; hope they're making money off of it hand over fist!!  More sales=more models! Small models=can actually afford them! If they're going by sheer popularity, as it appears they are, then Liger Zero, Rev Raptor, and Guysak are pretty strong contenders. --- After the HMM Geno Breaker, of course! It's got to be in the pipe!! |

Wow - I go offline for two weeks and all sorts of news comes out !
Aside from the chunky mount of the tail spikes, the design is very nifty. The idea of YET ANOTHER Molga sounded pretty blah, but I actually really like these. I like that the two versions have different guns on the head. And I'm dying to see what the clam-shell looks like. And I agree its nice to see a smaller Zoid get HMM'ed. Can we have Sea Panther next please ? This may have to be my buy-it-for-myself-cos-no-me-buys-me-Zoids birthday present ...
