At least the proportions are finally appropriate. That's a pretty clever weapon design too, but overall it just looks like a mess

It still suffers from the Chibi that 90% of the line does... HOWEVER, it is a Chibi I will own, and I shall fix that Chibiness!

I think it looks all right, but I'm very interested to see how it looks in motion. My favorite part so far is probably the wacky pinwheel weapon.

I'm more interested in the actual Zoids looking good than a goofy looking model that has some sort of scientific excuse for looking goofy. Original Gojulas still looks better than 90% of everything in the history of Zoids ever, and that one's about as scientifically accurate as flat earth theory. |

I mean really I was just joking. Like they've reassigned this stumpy-legged body to a dinosaur that people have been making noise about the stumpy-leggedness of, and that's amusing. I was hoping people would pick up on what I meant about "it's a spinosaurus now"

That's what I meant. Dinofans are saying now how spinosaurus has tiny legs, even though no two restorations ever look remotely similar and why there's been a bit of controversy and variance. Tl;dr part of what was shown in the paper is potentially part of a younger specimen/possibly Sigilmassasaurus. They responded to Hartman here. It's not a 'dinofan' thing and until more material shows up then this is just how it is. The art varies because art just varies and not all art is equal and some people disagree with the relatively new material, especially the sail shape but you won't get paleoartists who are trying to depict the material 100% to differ that much. On topic, though, this looks like a really neat kit and one I'll probably try and get next year, along with gilraptor. I really like the rotating sail blades, it's kinda like improving upon the Spinosapper's idea, the saws themselves remind me of its excavator unit. |

What will ZW31 & ZW32 be?

I do like that this is essentially the first "sailed" kit that really approached the feature from a standpoint other than ECM (Dimetrodon, Dark Spiner, DimepUlsar, and I'm pretty sure Gator all did this). I do like some of the sculpting in this kit and think it will make an excellent custom. I know you folks keep an eagle eye on it, but please DO poke me in the eye when someplace has it up for pre-order.

New better pics of Geno Spino   And because on that subject (of new pics) here's one of (what's he called again?) Styrazor? ZW32  |

Mean looking kit! I do like the some of the directions they took with it. The Styrazor is not what I expected... very strange what they did with the frill and the guns. No point on the central part tells me it may be missing armor (the Gat replaces the ram, correct?)

Yeah... I'm totally not blown away by that Styraco.. The colors seem weird (yeah I know, I have a yellow Tricera  ), the rehash is not done well at all.. The whole spike including frills coming out of Tricera's head was lame. And now it's the same, save for the fact that it's now a gatling thing and you will probably have to fold down the top spike/gun thing... Does not do much for me. Do like Geno even though it still has some issues. |
