Small haul today, as both of the Graphics finally arrived from Japan (got stuck in Customs for 3 weeks!). Also over the weekend we were going through some boxes leftover from our move last year and I came across a Mirage Fox! Turns out the better half had ordered one ages ago and was going to hold onto it for a birthday gift, but it was forgotten about - it will be nice to finally add to the collection now at least!

Got a Molga Rokurou Special finally! Love the colors. The other Molga was a bit of a bonus. I already have one so I'd be willing to sell it if anyone is interested.

(Mild spoilers ahead) Picked up the newest issue of Corocoro today! There aren't very many pages, and I admit I was hoping that there'd be a bit more, but that's the life of teasers. The style for the Zoids is amazing, aside from the cartoony eyes. I am so in love with the Gabrigator it's not even funny. Too bad he'll probably be Blasting Off Again™ shortly after his glorious appearance, since I doubt he'll have a major role beyond flunky. The character art could be worse. It's probably one of the better styles in Corocoro right now, even if it's going to take me a long time to get used to.

More Graphics arrived today, along with a NJR Gustav (missing pieces) and Berserk Fuhrer (in bags in pieces with no instructions - my favorite). I wasn't expect this lot to arrive for another week and a half according to the tracking number! Now I just need to track down Graphics Vol. 4 Snakes and the two Extra Vol.s (which are going to cost a pretty penny) to complete the full set!

I have to know; do all the optional weapons and parts form some kind of diorama set? Could we see it?

The extra parts come from the old OJR remodel sets, figure sets and diorama base sets. I never really look at which ones exactly were reissued in the Graphics.

I wasn't expect this lot to arrive for another week and a half according to the tracking number! <IMG> Now I just need to track down Graphics Vol. 4 Snakes and the two Extra Vol.s (which are going to cost a pretty penny) to complete the full set! I only own Sea Panther, Twin Horn, Lidier, and Malder. I have to know; do all the optional weapons and parts form some kind of diorama set? Could we see it? I probably won't get around to building these guys until this weekend, but when I do I'd be glad to post up pictures of all the extras. Lionel is correct - they do form parts of the old DX diorama sets, as well as the soldiers sets from the OJR. Unfortunately until I track down Snakes (Vol. 4), I won't be able to complete the sets as Snakes contains all the connectors to piece the platforms together. Vol 1 Godos = One platform (White) Vol 2 Helcat = Tower + Barricade Frame (Diorama Set No 1) Vol 3 Malder = Turret + Launch Pad Frame (Diorama Set No 1) Vol 4 Snakes = Diorama Connecter Frame (All Diorama Sets) Vol 5 Twinhorn = One platform (White) Vol 6 Godos = Diorama Soldier Set (Diorama Set No 1) Vol 7 Sea Panther = Assorted Weapons Frame (Remodel Set No 1) Vol 8 Puterasu = Vehicle Weapon Frame (Remodel Set No 1) Vol 9 Hammerrock = Republic Soldier Set (Soldier Set No 1) Vol 10 Lider = Zenevas Soldier Set (Soldier Set No 2) The Graphics Extra Volumes do not contain extra frames. EDIT: For the recreation of the old OJR sets, you’d need these combinations: RCZ-01 Remodel Set = Vol 7 Sea Panther & Vol 8 Puterasu RFZ-01 Soldier Set No 1 = Vol 9 Hammerrock EFZ-01 Soldier Set No 2 = Vol 10 Lider DZ-01 Diorama Set No 1 = Vol 1 Godos/Vol 5 Twinhorn (x2), Vol 2 Helcat, Vol 3 Malder, Vol 4 Snakes DZ-02 Diorama Set No 2 = Vol 1 Godos/Vol 5 Twinhorn (x2), Vol 4 Snakes & any Gustav DZ-04 Diorama Set No 4 = Vol 1 Godos/Vol 5 Twinhorn (x5), Vol 2 Helcat, Vol 3 Malder, Vol 4 Snakes (x2) & any Gustav Not all the parts to create DZ-03 Diorama Set No 3 and DZ-05 Diorama Set No 5 have not been reissued. Likewise, FZ-03 Soldier Set No 3 and the Figure Set included in DZ-02, DZ-03, DZ-04 and DZ-04 have not been reissued.

One of my more significant hauls, and coincidentally also my first Redlers! Wanted the Reddra for awhile, and finally got one - or rather, a Zolkon in this case - for dirt cheap off the UK eBay. After removing the stickers I saw the plastic has a little sun damage, with the pink looking more like red, and the caps as well ... I hope I can manage to return them to their original color. The other Redler is one I'm REALLY happy about, since the MEGAROBO Redler seems to be nearly impossible to find. So when I saw one pop up on eBay I had to immediately snag it. The entire reason I wanted it was for its hot pink wings actually... can't wait to get a cheap Black Redler and slap them on it :D

Long time no see! Nice finds, everyone! I've never seen that Redler before, what's up with the Megarobo branding? o 3o As for me, well... Finally managed to get my hands on the big boi scorpion himself. I can already tell this one's gonna be one helluva monster to build, and I do plan on repainting! I picked him up from Amiami in celebration of finally getting a new job, yay!

Congrats on that! What kind of repainting do you plan? Always like desert camos on Scorpions!
