Sorry for double posting, but I just had to share what I picked up last night!:  I was already elated to have obtained two of my all-time favorite Zoids, but these two both have a bit of a story to go with them. I figured you guys might find it interesting. Can you believe I got both of these for UNDER $100? After stalking the "newly listed" section of eBay for a few weeks, I came upon the Blade Liger being sold for only $80 with free shipping! Seeing as how most Koto BLs are sold for well over 100, I jumped on this deal like a Liger pouncing on its prey. What was interesting is that the guy listed it as the Renewal Version, but as you can plainly see, this is the original 2008 Leon. The box is somewhat beat up, but everything is there and sealed inside! I don't really miss the Leon figure though, because I'm going to repaint the hell out of this guy. Anyways, what was up with that? Isn't this version rarer? As for the Dimetro Ptera, I found him on Amazon for $13, which was amazing considering how much a sealed one usually goes for, especially the Japanese version. Again, box was beat up but he was sealed and complete. I didn't see this on Amazon, but apparently he came from the one and only Tisinc99. Anyone remember them? I thought they were long-gone after like 2009 or so, but apparently they're still floating around if you look hard enough. Hmm... Well, these two will certainly make some fun weekend projects! |

Nice grabs! You are right, the original 2009 version is likely going to be rarer.

Not bad! 2/3 Genesis Ligers, and a really cool looking Wolf. What kind?

So I stepped out the house this afternoon and came upon a box from one Gojulas Omega Omega... Could it be what I purchased from him?  Why, yes! I've been after this one for quite a while. He also happened to supply me with the elusive CP-09...  Just when I thought that was all, I tunneled through the generous amount of bubble wrap and... OHHHHHH WHEEERE YOU AT  He threw in a surprise! I don't know too much about this guy, but he looks cool! Can't wait to get to building them. Thanks man, you're a beast! |

 Ok so I've had them a little while but just got around to taking a picture. I've been after that Brastle tiger for a while! I love the color scheme so much more than the other one. The Organoids were just kinda a nice bonus as I found them for pretty cheap even though they aren't part of what I normally collect. I guess Specular never got a release? |

I remember when I got a red wing with the cp-09. felt good man. pretty sure that thing was in the anime
those big organoids look cool even if shadow is pink for some reason. kinda ends up looking like mewtwo..

 The other day I received a pre-built Hammerhead. At $8, he was quite a steal! He's my favorite aquatic Zoid, and a lot bigger than I expected! Sharks are even scarier with missiles... |

The Hammerhead is one of my favorite non-land based models! I picked up a MISB NJR one last year and still have yet to build it (my NAR Hammerhead's got some broken pieces D:)
If I were you, I'd go ahead and pull the stickers off. They distract your eyes from the beautiful lines that kit has!
Also, you need to try and see if you can snag a Wardick to go alongside! They're both awesome little kits.

I rarely put stickers on aside from Red Wing's (not the face though, it looks so cute without it) or the ones on Dimetro's cockpit, that's just how he came. Gotta capture that anime look lol. I definitely plan to get Wardick; the NAR one was part of my original collection that I got when NC0 was new and all that, and I'm slowly rebuilding it. Although I must admit I like the American name for that kit a little better... "Hey, Beavis... he said 'War *Watch your language!*'... Uhuhhh... Huhuhuh. Yeah." |

I used to feel the same, but the Japanese name just rolls off the tongue better IMO. I think of it as "w-ard-ick" rather than the "war-dik"  Ah, how fun it is seeing the forum censor you, lol |
