As much as I enjoy new building experiences, I find that when looking at my Zoids, it's always nice to see some identical kits side by side.
I have 2 Helcat Noir's for example, each with a different weapon loadout. And they look great together. It adds some uniformity to my displays.
What do you think about owning multiple of the same Zoids? What Zoids do you have multiples of and/or what do you wish you had multiples of?

Hmm... I don't think I have that many duplicates. Whether as a kid or now as an adult, I guess I've been more interested in each model's uniqueness rather than building out a squadron or military formation-type collection. For example I got the HMM Sturm Tyrann but skipped on the re-release of the Berserk Fury since I'd rather save the money/space for a completely different model.
I do really like seeing variations of the same Zoids together though! Always fun to compare Zoids "relatives" next to each other.

I like variants more then duplicates, but only certain ones. Duplicates tend to end up on the customizing table.

I have some dupes, but I mostly keep them for spare parts. It's not necessarily that I don't like the look of several identical Zoids next to one another, but I have way too many and I'm constantly running out of display space as it is, so multiple identical ones really isn't an option.

It gives me an excuse to do a custom paint job without worrying about customizing anything else. Also parts-swapping can be fun. But absolute dupes? Those are rare in my collection. Usually due to a shipping error, like that time I got 3 Saberlions

One I have in duplicate is the Blue Mammoth : the OJR, the OER, the Radio Shack, the french Mammouth, the Core Box, and the one sold in Europe in a red box.
Same thing for Glidoler : Mechabonica, OJR, OER, OAR and Starzeta.

being a z-knight fan.....i dont have much choice but to collect dupes. i keep one of each variant in the best condition/un-touched and on display. still missing a mega clone  but I will collect dupes when they appear cheap enough on ebay. i have 3 english z-knights and 2 japanese (darker) versions spare. as i turn them RC im never too fussed about missing bits etc...if anything it kinda relieves the stress/guilt of potentially ruining them. |

Oh Yeah! OCD persona kicks in at times! Um let's see robostrux Terrox count sits at 5 plus a box. Stang 2 plus 1 mib of both box years, but model count of versions of releases now at 4 plus junkyard fodder of at least an ability to cobble 2 more together. Iron Kong 3 plus junkyard of almost a whole 1. King Gojulas 1 built 4 mip plus 4 more mip customs. Gungyrados 2 built 4 more mip Gilvader 2 chromed out customs from what I was told from a winter wonder fest plus both versions of new releases mip. Gators 3 technozoids and 1 robostrux built and an mip of 86 box version. Then a slew of double mip zoids. Basically if I liked how it looked, which was often, I bought 2. However I am WAY WAY behind on the HMM models with one and only 1 thus far.

OK...my hands up. I got many duplicates Zoids, like Legend Blox Gojulas, Gojulas and Gojulas....??
Well, because of the way I collecting Zoids, I got many duplicates from NJR Zoids line.
I want to, I hope to and I wish to share them with others, but not many people around me are interested to Zoids...

Love multiples, but not enough money to collect them!

Well;
In the course of accumulating parts for repair and customs, I now have five Horns-- wait... three dark, three-- no four red, and a Brutox... alright, eight. Eight Horns. And a similar number of kitties for similar reasons. Two fangs, soon to be three as now I want to make a MkII; I don't like shieldies but I have, gods, parts for like three or so; two bladeys including the blue one buried in a bin somewhere.
Just for example.
And don't even get me started on the woofs that seem to come in every parts lot.
