Oooooh that is a fun retro color scheme on that saber. Genoritter seems a little bit disappointing though The pic honestly doesn’t do Ritter justice. It’s this really beautiful navy

I have the Ritter MIB (the last Zoid kit I actually acquired) but I also have an HMM Geno, generation one, MIB. I've thought about bashing them to make an HMM Ritter, but I'm not sure. There are many aspects to the bat-op kit that I prefer to the HMM.
Congrats on the grabs!

Huge, huge, HUGE thanks to Falcarius for pointing this gorgeous thing out to me. The Zoid is someone's custom chromed König Wolf, not the official. It was actually meant to be a full MK-II setup, but the additional parts aren't yet assembled. I'll probably post again in a couple weeks, when I pick up some silver paint for the non-chromed bits of the sniper rifle. The chrome is just beautiful. It's completely flat, and you can faintly see the silver on every edge, which I love. Unfortunately in photos it just comes off as a black blob, and often reflected off the silver under the paint, causing horrible flashes in the photos. None of the orange shows through, that's just the lighting. Needless to say, I'm in love, and I'm really happy to add this guy to my K Wuf family.

It's about time for another haul pic, and boy is there a wide range of stuff in this one... In the left-hand column is a flexible Shield Liger resin kit made by ArtArea back in 2000-ish (I'm still not sure if it's an officially approved product or not) and two pairs of tiny Blade Liger shoes by MoonStar. Apart from those, everything else was bought in person on my recent trip to Japan... At top-left are some 80s manga from the School Grade Magazines that never got books of their own, which I printed out at the National Diet Library (I spent half a day there and it wasn't nearly enough). Below them are various catalogues, booklets and posters which I was given by a Japanese Zoider called Sanshiki (I already had most of them, but the Neo Blox Graphix and Official Fan Book EX volumes are new). To the right is Zoids Battle Research Volume 3, a doujin by Sanshiki that's absolutely packed with information (over 130 pages, and most of them are walls of text - sadly unofficial, but they're based on official material), along with a sticker and business card for a customising group called the "Muscle Zoids Club". Then there's an 80s issue of Coro Coro (also from Sanshiki), a few more Zoids games (Battle Card Game and Infinity EX NEO are now the only official Japanese Zoids games I don't have), and some models. The Fury was new from Volks, the Shellkarn and Guntiger were secondhand from Mandarake, and the Rayse Tiger was also secondhand from a shop called Hobbyland Pochi. Lastly, on the far right is some non-Zoids stuff, including the manga adaptation of an interesting visual novel called NOeSIS, some merchandise from the Kemono Friends cafe, and a legitimate copy of Touhou 6. As you can probably guess, I had a pretty great time! (And spent far too much money.)

Wow, that's an awesome haul! Sounds like it was a great time, and with plenty of goodies to bring back. I'd be very interested in seeing the manga if you ever get the time~ The Gun Tiger is a neat little kit, and the Shieldy kit isn't too common anymore. Have had one sitting around for years and never got around to building it. Come to think of it, don't think I've seen anyone post a built one in years.

That Mandarake is just wow ey, makes one want a bigger suitcase. And I see you met someone from the muscle zoids club, I got a sticker from too but very different, they appear to have updated their logo. Kong with a weight in it's mouth Suitable really. Also who is the name you mentioned earlier I would recognise? Someone from Muscle zoids club?

It's been a while that my last post in this thread.... (well, who cares?) Anyway, I did got my hand on some interesting things- Oh yes, " Death" Saurer fit it's name nicely in this photo. (especially it has damaged tail and missing parts) For the King Gojulas, only the one on the left hand side is complete(but also has damage), the one on the right is the left over. I got myself 2 incomplete and damaged King Gojulas, put all the best parts together to make the one on the left. The rest of the parts to build the one on the right. NJR Ultrasaurus is complete without damage, but some parts(like the big tube on the head) are become white, so can't said it is in good condition. Terox come with almost complete, only missing 1 fin, and I has the extra fin for it. Blade Liger Mirage is complete but very dusty, and Blade Liger Black Impact is almost complete too.

My boy has arrived, completing the holy quintet of my favorite Zoids. Surprised by a) the quickness of the build (he only took about 45 mins) b) the sheer posability (though I wish the lower legs were posable) and c) his size. Thing approaches my Giga in size, which is nice because I was a bit disappointed when I found out how small Bio Tricera is.

That's a lot of big Zoids! Which version of the King is it? Both of them are OJR. (but not much different between the OJR and Rebirth Century version) pika247, Nice Bio Tyranno. Although the lower leg is not posable, but it is the most stable Zoids From all the Bio Zoids series.

Gojulas Omega Omega: Very cool lot! Must have been difficult to get them via post as these are all big ones. I am a great fan of the King G but the room you need is huge to display them. Bye Cougan
