I was just reposting the post they made on twitter, didn't even remember that they had stocked before. I suppose they were just advertising new stocks in that case. It seems to be a fleeting moment with these kits~
There are fewer and fewer places left for international zoiders to buy. I know there are some on Ebay, but I am very reluctant since I'm a stickler for nice boxes, and in my experience Ebay Zoids rarely come with nice boxes. Whereas if I wait patiently I know I can pick them up in perfect condition from more standardized businesses. It is truly a dilemma with how fast they're flying off of shelves.

No worries buddy And I understand...it's indeed not easy being a Zoids fan outside of Japan. Over here we have no shops at all that sells Zoids (yeah 1 but overpriced) I can't even remember the last time Zoids were sold here (there used to be a Hamleys on the airport, but ages ago) But if Wild is such a succes they might want to rethink their international strategy. Pokémon and DBZ were a huge hit because of good marketing, everyone knows those names, and mostly because of the fact that it was released everywhere.. It would not have been so big if it stayed in Japan

I came to post the Tiger picture, but you have done it before. So, just saying is awesome!!!
Also there is an anime picture of the ceratopsian in Wild Blast mode.

Check out this site~ It is where the Triceradogos picture is from (though it has made its rounds in this thread a couple times I believe.) It has the main cast so far, with the normal and wild blast image of them from the anime. Click Characters > Zoids. Then you can click the small circle on the left, after selecting a Zoid, to see its Wild Blast form. You may need to set your browser to 'mobile' mode if it has one, because for some reason my desktop, it does not switch to the Wild Blast image. If I use a mobile device though, or set Chrome to mobile, it shows up~

I'm looking at it wondering how it intends to use that spike coming out the top. Jump, tilt forward and charge! Ah good to see regardless

I didn't notice this Stego before, it is the best of the line, the most beautiful.

I'm having trouble finding the post again (internet isn't wanting to load twitter), but someone on Twitter pointed out that the Triceradogos and Stegosage use a lot of the same body parts, same legs, etc. This really surprised me! I had to go back and look, and they did an excellent job of making them look different.

The Pachycephalosaurus will also use a lot of the GilRaptor parts (arms, some neck parts and the tail at least, maybe more

Pretty sure Death Rex and Grachiosaurus have the same torso and possibly a similar Wild Blast. It's really clever.

HLJ's got a 10-piece box of light-up figures, no pic yet but apparently featuring Wild Liger, Gilraptor, Gannontoise, Gabrigator and Scorpear. Also, is anybody who's ordering the gacha boxes going to be willing to sell their extras?

I know I posted this elsewhere on the boards, but I figure it might be helpful to some trying to figure out shipping costs for the kits. Zoids Wild box weights: Wild Liger 499g Gilraptor 440g Kabtor 132g Scorpear 132g Ganontoise 472g Gabrigator 449g Wave 1: 2124g Kuwanga 192g Grachiosaurus 799g Wave 2: 991g HLJ's got a 10-piece box of light-up figures, no pic yet but apparently featuring Wild Liger, Gilraptor, Gannontoise, Gabrigator and Scorpear. Also, is anybody who's ordering the gacha boxes going to be willing to sell their extras? Interesting find! I am really curious what the light up figures will look like. As for the gacha boxes, I know I'll be selling off my extras at cost as I won't need them, I'm sure a few others will as well.

I wish these things were easier to get. I have Gilraptor on the way from AmiAmi. Scorpear and Gabriator I ordered from Hobby Link Japan but they haven't even shipped yet. Everything else it out of stock? I hope they can rectify this. I really want to get Grachiosaurus too!

I suspect Grachiosaurus won't be restocked until it's actually released, so they have a better idea of what they're dealing with.
Thanks again for the weights! Shipping turned out to be 5,900 Yen for all but the Kabutor, to WA. I'll need to pick that one up elsewhere at some point.
