I totally caved and bought it. I couldn't resist how cheap it was. I've had him for a few weeks or so, just been waiting on a good opportunity to take a picture. So without further delay, I give you the Azure NIghtmare, the Genoritter. I have to admit, I absolutely love this guy. People gave it a lot of slack for not appearing astectically pleasing. I think he looks like a better version of the Genobreaker Jet version B. Here it is with the Black Wraith, the Genoscion. I will take more photos when it isn't cold as hell.

Where in the world did you find it for that price?

There's been mirage foxes on ebay for comparable prices. I'm sorely tempted to get one... because I feel like that might be the best chance i ever get.

AAAARGH!
You're right, though... poor Ritter got a bum rap out of the gate, but I always thought it was a very attractive recolor at least, and I like the custom parts. Wonderful looking kit; now it will have to join my dusty list of Grails.

Yeah, I thought people that were critical of this completely awesome Zoid were crazy...no accounting for taste, I guess. Unfortunately, it will apparently have to go on my list of "dreamer" Zoids, as I cannot and will not pay the ridiculous inflated prices...$85-$120 in the secondary market for a Zoid that retailed at around $50? Give me a break I am hoping that eventually some of the peeps on a couple of these forums that procured 4-5 of these when they were released will see that they don't really need that many individually, and will spread a little of that around to other collectors. Preferably without trying to get rich off of them, as long as I am fantasizing.

I will continue to keep an eye out. I feel horrible that I didn't tell anyone, but I wasn't sure it was really legit, and by the time it arrived (two weeks surprisingly) they were taken down.

I will. But its definitely going to have to be after I make the move to the mainland this summer. Oki is a barren wasteland in regards to Zoids. It makes me so sad too, I was really hoping to be able to support you guys requests sooner... Going to Korea again soon, and Singapore. I'll let y'all know if I find anything.

What part of Korea? I know they have the academy stores there. They should have a good amount! And don't worry about it bro. We know you are trying. You just continue enjoying the scenery! Keep us updated!

I'm not very in-touch with this.. what are the chances zoids like the current line are going to still be available by then?

It depends...The as yet unreleased red Storm Sworder will probably be available for sure. Depending on the number released, there might be some Command Wolf RGCs still laying around by then too. But the likelihood of finding any Geno Ritters or Mirage Foxes by summer will be low to non-existent. I am speaking of the brick & mortar stores though. There will probably a few Foxes and Ritters remaining online for ludicrously high prices.
