Judging by the comments section this seems to be a pretty recent unveiling, sorry if it's old news but would be great if they are actually going ahead with the kit! Ironically I'm bidding on an old school version

Gorgeous. I'm sure it'll have flip-out guns in the hand position and we just can't see them, or something bidding on the original is a fantastic idea seeing as they're so rare

Cheers Snowflake, just won it NIB and actually in the UK for under 25gbp inc. p&p best of all no import tax!! Boy that makes a refreshing in change! I have to pay over 70gbp in import tax on Zoids alone this week!! Yup they got me for the Gojulas Ogre from Japan and two used Zoids from the USA...

Hot damn!
I don't like flying Zoids, simply for the fact that I have never had a way of properly displaying them (I have never been a fan of using stands to emulate the idea of flying because it feels so inauthentic). And with HMM especially, I don't want it falling from some great height just for it to break; this line has problems with loose parts already!
This kit is beautiful enough to make me reconsider. And it is incredibly faithful to the original design.

I would have to install hooks I guess. I guess I am a bit of a prick though because actually seeing the string bothers me a bit (I am sure it is less noticeable in other types of lighting). Also, I love your Transformers Prime stuff. I loved that series, even though I am not a huge TF fan

That's actually what got me into Transformers, I was ill and bedridden without much brain power so needed something simple to watch (like hangover TV) and ended up streaming all of the series after seeing the design of their Beast King that I thought was amazing, now I have every figure and variant version from that line except one or two. As far as string goes, that's the flash reflecting off it, it's actually transparent fishing line and you can get it much thinner I just have a habit of using whatever's lying around for pretty much everything!
