Nice Grab! Especially the Shikkoku Gairyuki Shin, this is a very rare and expensive kit.
However, I strongly disagree to build the Shikkoku Gairyuki Shin. This kit is one rare kit and too expensive to build.
Since it just change the color from the regular version(all the caps and clear parts are same as the normal Gairyuki Shin), if you need a black one, you just need to buy a regular version and repaint it.

Hard to say, do you buys Zoids to keep them in the boxes and sell them at higher prices years later? Or build them and bring them to life???

If I acquired a mint Blue Seismosaurus (one of my Grail kits) or the even rarer Gravity Rex, would I build it? If it was the Blue Seismo I definitely would! But the Rex? Honestly, I would probably attempt to make a copy of the sprues and build the copy. When it comes to really rare kits it can be a tough choice. Did I buy this kit because I have always wanted to own the Zoid, or did I buy it as an investment to cash in on later?

Finally acquired Bamburian! The lances I've had for a while lol. Blitz Sworder is nice. I actually really like the little bloxy Zoids.

Nice Bamburian, it is a fun and interesting Zoids.
But watch out for the gold part, they are kind of "crunchy", especially the area to holding the blade on both wheels.

Enbahan: This is a very interesting design and looks quite unusual for me as i am after dinosaur types and Kongs most of the time 😂 But i like your new zoids and have to look for a video to see the movement of these types.

After a long hunting i managed to get a Badox for a good price! It is not complete but as for the other big Robo Strux Zoids i was not willing to pay these crazy amounts so i can complete them from time to time, Gordox and Brutox worked fine that way hope to get the missing parts for Badox too.

Congrats! I love Brutox! He has some nice unique features, like the dual shoulder launcher with a 3rd pilot station.

Yes, they are the same, so if you have a Gore already, Badox is not that special beside those chrome weapons.

Badox and Gore are the sole to have this special shoulder gun. The blue is really great on this one. But the most important is the armor, not black as the OER, but bluish. It is looking more like the one in the UK comics. Badox as Brutox is really important because of his colour.

I own a Badox but never acquired Gore. Gore was a must have for me as i had one as a child. I really like the decent colors and retro charme.

Yeah, as much as I hate changes made for 'safety' (as if we didnt all grow up with spring-loaded magazine-fed missile launchers. G2 Megatron was the joint!), I think this weapon looks a lot better. The original is just ungainly, and its magazine only makes sense because in real life it has to be gravity-fed for it to work.. but in-universe that's the last thing you'd want, and it just ruins peripheral vision, when a side-mounted magazine would look way cooler

This might not be interesting to you guys but I just found a delivery notice on my mail among all the trash and just picked up my first ever HMM Zoid I bought it from TOP JAPAN on eBay and I think it is in good condition, although one of the bags seems unintentionally opened so I hope everything is in there. I'm pretty excited
