Could also be simply a rear-mounted triple cannon, as well. Never assume your super-Zoid is safe from attack due to superness! After all, did the Deathsaurer really need those bitty guns? Well, had it used them to actually defend its fan, yep. It did use them in the anime, granted that deathsaurer was much more massive but it used them. ANd in Battle Legends those quad linear beam guns are quite effective for when they try to circle behind you, as are the missiles, in fact I consider the "mega deathsaurer" in Battle Legends inferior to the regular Deathie in some ways since that quad laser is replaced with a second cpc that you can fire constantly as you run around. Also, I like assymetry in military machines, need to balance the weight, yes, but doesn't mean you need the same gun on both sides. no reason you can't mount a 4 barrel missile pod on one side and a cannon on the other. And those spikes are impressive. |

i think I'm on a roll here. lol.. i made something in a stroke of brilliance moment. it was in my plan to make the weapons system and booster system moveable.. sorta like a CAS that would make this werewolf go through a series of upgrades to get it its final form. What i just did was make its propulsion system upgradable into various stages. the stroke of brilliance was actually utilising the battery flap door as a "hydraulic" plate that shifts up its primary boosters to allow for the extra booster pack that i made. i'll attempt the show this is a series of photographs. NORMAL MODE This is the resting phase of the primary thrusters. situated on its lower back region. These are currently on a ball joint that allows me to angle the varying degrees of thrust that is indicated by how wide the fins open. BOOSTER UPGRADE IN PROGRESS This shows the flap opening up , exposing the cavity for the batteries. This also moves the primary trusters into a high back/ shoulder position for a more upper torso boost. BOOSTER UPGRADE COMPLETE Heres with the booster pack slotted in. Will do more to enhance the look of the boosters. THRUSTERS ON 100% this just looks glorious....... i'm so damn happy lol..Again, normal mode side view  Maximum Boost |

Looks nice, perhaps it's even possible to design it in a way that it actually fits inside the battery compartment, so that it wouldn't be a seperate piece you have to attach/detach every time?

It looks amazing! I like the boosters there soo much better. Mainly because they look awesome in the resting position, like a spike of hair that bolts up when active.

Looking GREAT! That use of the battery door is inspired, man! My customs can't usually use them in that kind of way, because I end up chopping them through and loading them with bits and pieces. LOVE the look of the pop-up booster/weapon stowage.

That works well, very clever! Lets's Hope he could keep up with the speed the boosters want him to go being bipedal. Or is that thing also going to be able to run on all fours? Figuratively speaking.

ANd now i'm imagining this thing converting from running to suddenly rocketing forward. Also, I want to see it deliver a kick, or maybe even use martial art's moves. I'd love to see an Iron Kong do kung-fu for that matter. If this is an imperial zoid I'd love to see it suplex a gojulas giga or judo throw anouther heavy zoid. That would be an epic battle scene... |

Out of all zoids, this one would have to have the longest and most useful arms. Possibly Making the bipedal short-armed dinosaur zoids just that little bit jealous.  |

THough we've seen zoids kick other zoids before, and I-Kongs punch zoids, we never seen one grab another zoid, jump, and then slam it into the ground, your custom will be able to do that with all those extra thrusters. With enough customs like ti we could start a ZWL. Zoid Wrestling League.  |

Vig, I was thinking he should be able to run on fours for high speed chases. Similar to the gojulas giga and its dual modes. And one way to achieve this look is to have a separation at are pelvis that allows for the entire lower portion to be angled and arched differently. Absolut3 suggested that I build a pelvis for the werewolf but I'm still scratching my head how to actually achieve that lol.
As for the legs, I was thinking of adding thrusters to the calves if there is enough space. Ceilyurei"s skating idea sounds really sick. That definitely a feature I wanna have on the werewolf. Just needa see how to make it look convincing.
And ceilyurei, this one I'm hoping the werewolf and its pilot to be mercenaries... It will bodyslam and kick ANYONE so long as you can pay him enough. Hahaha.
