I figured something like this might happen. The first five whiteheads are the least popular and easily the most common vintage Zoids they could have possibly chosen to release. Why they didn't go straight in and release the far more popular red Zoid set I'll never know.

Pants ! I was really interested in this set.
I'm sure most the Zoid Collectors out there would buy a set that included Slime, Zaton and Sea Panther.

"Pants"? Is that the word filter?  I'm gonna wait for a confirmation before falling into despair. |

I was planing to buy a lot of them for customs... ouin !
I consoled myself by making a new order to Amenbo : Masterpiece Starscream, reissue Galvatron and the two NBZ 09 and 10 (to have a little part about Zoids in the packet).

I have to admit i'm more than a little gutted too. I love the white heads and theres some red zoids i'd love to see again...
I agree better choices could have been madein the set but surely they'd have made the set's to go to stores by now ?
They'l have to shift the stock some how ?

Dammit, I was looking forwards to this though. Had I known that pre-orders would've kept this alive I woulda told everyone to make some but I'm getting the feeling the "disinterest" was in the Japanese fanbase or something?

Is there anywhere that is still accepting pre-orders?
P'raps if a whole lot of interest were shown NOW, TDP would reverse its yet-announced decision...

Bastards. Illegitimate chickadees, sons of ubiquitous wrens!
HLJ had a preorder, I thought, but I don't remember where it was or if it's still there.

www.hlj.com/product/TOMX-02HLJ probaably hasn't updated their site yet and I figure that if a bunch of people were to place orders now they'd just cancel them all anyway. The thing is, I was talking to a friend who browses HLJ a lot and said that the Zenebas set was put on order stop for getting too many orders. In fact, she was rather surprised to hear that the reason given was "lack of interest". Multiple Japanese stores have said to put up cancellation notices of the set and a recurring theme is that no one seems to have been given a decent explanation other than "lack of interest".

Shenny - Nope "Pants" is the internal zed brain word filter.
I usually get my new stuff from Amenbo, and had they had a Pre-order, would have ordered at least one set. But it is pretty daft to ask buyers to commit when the composition has not been confirmed. Same reason I don't pre-order a new mold without seeing a picture.
