FINALLY got my batch of coins after some stress with the post office.  I have a bunch for sale; more than I expected actually, and will be putting up a thread in the trading post soon. Below is what I kept from the lot. Not sure what's up with the black coins. I'm assuming they're the base for the bronze coins and never got a top coat. I don't think that's a legitimate gold coin either. All the ones I've seen have been a much more shiny gold, and I'd think they'd be the same size as the silver coins, if not a little larger.  Also of note is my beautiful Blue Sissy! Been hunting for over a year and finally snagged her without having to sell a limb to pay for her.  A Special Edition Murasame, Red Horn keychain, and blue chrome CP also arrived, but I haven't taken pics of them yet. Oh nice! I'm so happy you got your coins as I remember you were really worried lol. If your selling them do keep me in mind as I'd love to have just one coin for my collection. I haven't seen them in some time ^.^ |

Thanks Gigaman! Yeah, super worried and had to call the post office several times to get it here. Such a pain. I have a few people in line who asked for some but I'm sure I'll have several left over. I'll let you know!

I too would be interested in a coin. Back when the US first started making the state quarters I was one of the nerdy kids who bought a book and eagerly waited for each new one, lol. I still notice new ones being made from time to time- not states but historic landmarks, etc. And I pray for you who has the blue Sissy that it is not going to break into little itty bitty bits like my NJR Sissy did. That has without a doubt, of the over 200 zoids I have in my collection, been the most brittle zoid of all. Even over some of the holotechs/crystals. My NAR Sissy was great quality, the NJR more fragile than an egg! A piece of breakable crystal! You name it. I pray for you that the blue one is of much better quality that NJR.
And nice job Rhas on yours! Hope you'll post pics if you choose to build it.

Anyone know how to contact Darwock about decals for this guy? I just made it here, awakening from a two-year slumber from Zoids activity (I took it badly when the originals line bombed, lol). Decals are on hiatus until I get back in gear (sadly I used ZP as my only depository for my own work, so I need to refresh my memory on what I have, and put it all together again). it was getting pretty unwieldy with over 65 sheets completed, so it will do me some good to sort it out from scratch I guess. |

I have a black seismo as well, not sure from which release, but it seems to be fairly sturdy. Hopefully my blue will follow suit and stay together... I'd be heartbroken if it went to pieces. Excited to see your decals, Darwock. I didn't have a chance to see them on ZP. |

darwockI assume that those decals of yours will be a pretty penny since the discontinuation of those lovely printers. Man, I SO wish I had bought one back in the day!

Well, it's not a REAL Zoid, but I'm kinda happy with it.  I found one of the bootleg "Robotic Beasts" kits that were of interest on here back in 2009. Picked it up from my local Goodwill for $2, it's missing a battery cover and the remote control. Shame I can't see it move, but hey - it's kinda a cool Dibison! I chopped off the bent antenna it had and now it's sitting next to my Liger Zero for the time being, I think it looks kinda sweet. |

It's not so much the discontinuation of the printers that is the problem, it's the discontinuation of the ink! After all, without the ink, the printer is entirely useless. I have some stockpiled, but one of the ribbons I use to make my yellows has already gone the way of the dodo, so I am limited by my supplies of that one cartridge. |

Great grabs everyone!  The most recent additions to the stable here...  A US-boxed Stunra would have been preferable, but, beggars can't be choosers. Now to find that damned elusive red-box Chompz... |
