Totally agree on the legs. Here's our first armorless view of it~ |

Man, that thing looks like a killer Deadborder without the armor! I do agree that the T-Rex needs to have legs about 50% larger.

That and they should have made that tail blade silver.. It looks like a seperate piece and they have enough other silver parts so it wasn't that they didn't have some silver sprues in this kit..
That way it would have looked somewhat more like in the anime.
And their pics are inconsistent, on the first pics the first top spike on the "wild blast parts" is present, then they are gone. On the walking vid they are also gone and on the previous pic they're back again??

Bizarre proportions. Looks like they just deleted the tibia and attached the feet to the knees like Cotton Hill. but it still looks like it could kill fitty zoids
with the short neck too, and the body totally horizontal, it makes me think of a crocodile instead. I wonder how easy it would be to modify

If I had to guess they discovered that the Wild Blast didn't work properly with that one tooth. It likely collided too closely with one of the armor pieces if it stopped at a certain point in the walk cycle. I imagine we will be missing that tooth on the final version, but the product photos are likely using an earlier version of the kit before it was removed.

All Zoids CAN be modified....  |

Maethius any plans to try your hand on a Zoids Wild custom?

If I had the money to throw at them, I would mod them all! As it stands, I'm afraid that I will have to wait until either a bird drops a lump of cash on my head or until a client pops up that wants me to butcher a kit. ^_^

Someone posted this teaser over on discord. REALLY surprised the Dilo isn't using the Gilraptor base... Like it already has the crest! And the new crest isn't great. The weapon looks pretty dumb as well imo. We now have a release date on Fang Tiger though, as well as some others! Definitely want Spideath, and Anky rocks. Not sure how to feel about the tail turning into a mace. It makes sense, but I'd like to see some proper Anky tail whapping. The Demipulsar has a completely mismatched head for the species... but it's not bad otherwise. Happy to get the purple/gold gilraptor! |

Oh, interesting lot...
Spideath looks great, the Fang Tiger is... well... a tiger. I am most excited about the Ankyrocks because I have been waiting for a Ankylosaurus that wasn't a Gunbluster since 1982! The Tilraptor is another Gilraptor, but it looks good in black. The Dimepulsar has some interesting aspects, but the head... I don't get that at all; they kind of gave up on it. Dilopaos has potential, but again, not wild about the head design. Still, some great custom fodder in there, too!

What a neat batch. The Ankyrocks and Dimepulsar are early standouts for me-- I think they have lots of potential for cool customs though their names are... interesting. The Spideath looks like a fun little design as well with a weird-looking Wild Blast mode.

Wow...when I first said that they should do a Dilophosaurus done justice I didn't think they'd actually do it. But didn't expect them to cheap out and deliver such an underwhelming Craptor clone.. So Diloforce is still a better Dilopho..
Anky looks nice design and color wise, but that WB.. Instead of tail smash (up down or left right) we get manual awkward "put on back stuff"
Dimetro...that ugly ugly head..
By the way a lot of Stego green, again..
Spidey looks okay but weird color choice..would have been better in black with red eyes.
Fang tiger is what he would be.
Gil in black is nice (I see an all black one, or a red and purple one)
That only leaves Pachy.
But what to do after these?
The XL are more L than XL (Grachio and Rex should have been bigger) as there is no L size..

Red eyes would've been cool for Spideath. Looking at it, there are hooks in the backs of the legs. I bet it could walk upside down on strings to simulate a fake web. At least I hope. It'd be fun to play with.
There are large Zoids. Triceradogos / Stegosage are large class. It is the only Zoid base we've seen in that class though, I believe.
I laughed more than I should have at the name Craptor, even if I love them.

Thanks to Hanyoutai for these pics! First of all i am so glad to get more new Zoids, with even overall new designs!
My favorites are Ankylo and Dilopho at the moment. I can understand the points that are maybe not perfect but i find it hard when i still haven’t seen the zoid in front of me so i may have to wait. I remember i didn’t liked the pics of Barigator until i had the zoid in my hands...
And really have to build my unbuild wild zoids!
