Yeah~ I have no idea if that spelling is correct but it was the leaked name along with Phantos, before we had an official announcement.

So... its gimmick is a ball-flinger> Not sure if I like the gimmick, but the kit looks pretty solid to me.  |

so cool and stupid at the same time. The way it hinges backwards onto the forehead, leaving the face open... instead of some kind of underhand trunk throw, or saving this mechanism for a hammerrock-type. Oh well, the Wild designers have their own sensibilities I guess.
I will say if you're going to keep the inside of limbs hollow to save on parts, this is how you do it with style.

Why doesn't it have a skeleton form?

Half glad to see it's actually a tossing motion as theorized! But this is going to be the worst toy to buy your children. You'll be getting hit in the face with a little plastic ball 5 times a day, and they're surely going to end up on the floor as small, high-pressurepoint plastic bits to step on lol
Also a little disturbed by the huge gaping wound in the face to make this mechanic possible.
As for the lack of a skeleton, CoroCoro toted these as "ancient Zoids", so I suspect they may be themed after original Zoids, with no skeletal form.

It's Zero Phantoth, not Zero Phantos. Comes out June 27 for 4,000 yen.

Huh, not what I was expecting. I thought there was going to be a huge trebuchet/GenoSpino type rotating gimmick. I find it funny too how far back the rider is, almost about to fall off  |

What is up with Takara Tomy putting a new Zoids Wild kit up for pre-order on the 15th day of each month?

Why doesn't it have a skeleton form? I believe they may be moving away from the Skeleton system and toward the original Zoid designs. Either that of they just haven't shown it, but that seems to have been a selling point up to now. I just realized that the feature I had seen before of the "solid legs" was based on the photoshopped image. Look at the inner leg on the box art and the inner leg on the toy photo. I don't mind it, but I would love to get two kits and "fix" that issue. |

Oh wow, didn't even notice the change made to the box art. That's pretty cheap...! The box art would be fine without the edit.

Sharp eyes Maethius, I definitely didn't notice that until you pointed it out 
Curious to see the size compared to other Zoids. I can't help but feel a little disappointed if it's similar stature to the Liger; I feel elephants should be bigger.

I'm guessing by the size of the rider and the caps that this thing is build along the size of the trike, so about the size of an Elephander.
