This is under the 1/24 line which also refer to as "Panzer Tier".
Originally released by TOMY back in 1987, Toys Dream Project re-issued it in 2004. Actually this is the 2nd time this model were being re-issued. In 1992 under the Zevle line it was released but by different name: Landgallop.
TDP Battlerover is a wind-up motor Zoids. It comes with 1 fully articulated, painted pilot.
The box and bits, unlike the WAVE 1/20 Zoids using waterslide sheets, TDP Battlerover comes with regular sticker sheet . However, the sticker sheet is so thick & hard that it will be difficult making it stay in place especially on uneven surfaces. Thus, I only uses the Helic Insigna & placed on both legs.
The finished product: TDP Battlerover
You can place the Pilots gun on the back of the seat.
Though this model kits has less parts, assembling the legs makes me nuts since the instruction manual erroneously numbered the left leg as #27 whereas it should be #21 and vice versa. Also, the front shaft connecting to the lower leg has minimal space in it that if you wind-up this Zoids the cap keeps on popping out :PI ended mine not putting the caps since it still holds securely
Comparison shot between TDP Battelrover with GZ-010 Murasame Liger.
Nevertheless, it's a great Zoid & kudos to Toys Dream Project in keeping the Battlerover as close to the original version.
Cheers to everyone ;D
