Beautiful. Reminds me of a lot of fan zoid designs from back in the day. You know, on places like Vision of Zoids and such. Super good price too, I'm seeing it for a way higher price elsewhere... At least, assuming it's as big as it looks. Which it can't be, right? I saw a listing that claimed it's a full 30 cm long, which just can't be true. Not to mention suggeesting the price would be 15 dollars, there's no way. and it is still technically available at that price on ebay...
I'm also really curious about details.. Not just size, but how tiny the parts are. If this is full-on HMM I think I'll have to give it a miss, but if it's closer to a regular zoid or maybe an HG gundam model, I'm potentially in. and I am very reluctant to give China money, but this really does look good. I know just what I'd call it too, to make it fit in with zoids. Messer Führer

It says 30cm (about 11 inchs) tall, which I assume is very highest it can reach between body and boosters elevated. It also says it is a kit, but the pics don't show much about it. I was just wondering if anyone else has found anything on it. For parts, it would be a great source at only $35 USD!

Until you showed it I didn't know a darn thing about it. I do like it. I might just preorder the darker version of it.

So I did a little bit of research, and Sun Queen is a new maker on the market. Watched a couple videos/read some preorder stuff for these guys and they look awesome. I couldn't find anything on a tiger, just the two dinos here. Very much skirting copyright but man these look super cool.

I mean, I don't see anything here that Zoids really owns. The key in my mind would be if they made some where half the line had distinctive dome cockpits on animal heads, and in general if they included the uniform cylindrical caps on all the joints. That is the Zoid trademark.. Dinosaurs with back-mounted weapons? Lots of people have done that. Hell, Trypticon kind of rips off a lot of Zoid trademarks, but then since the merger I doubt Tomy is going to get sore at Takara for that (if that even was them). I'm also reminded of ENJOY*MOBIL models, which had some very zoidesque dinosaur-robots-with-weapons
Come to think of it, is this thing even piloted? Have we seen any pictures of a hatch or anything? Any mention of its intended scale?

Is it an actual kit or an action figure? It is listed as a kit at Gundam Store, but so would the toy versions of Zoids.
