After going home, I was looking for Rhimos parts to restore my old Zoids 2 Red Horn/Rhimos. But then I found out that I have some chrome parts used in the old Slither/Molga. Now I bashed my NJR Molga to substitute some Zoids 2 parts. Hopefully some paint (chrome and black) will make it look more like the real thing:  picture courtesy of Pheno's Zoids Reference Center. |

So it's bye bye to my njr molga (well it's easier to find an NJR molga than the zoids 2 one) so far this is what I've done: I've just done a switcheroo.  Some of the points I'll be considering to change:  |

well after a chrome paint job and black paint job I'm proud to say my Zoids 2 Slither/ Molga is resurrected.  See, he's better than the previous restoration I did to the molga. He's now got more similarity to the real thing.  Weapon isn't painted. It's the same thing in my Zoids 2 Slither/ Molga.  Probably one thing that didn't change is the cockpit and canopy.  Canopy didn't changed, but pilot color did. Well that's that. The chrome didn't got the same finish as the plastic, but anyway it's near the old Zoids 2 SLither. Well at least I have revived another zoid in my vintage zoids collection. |

Hehehehe, Probably the aquazoid will be done after I get his body from the province. It might take some time since I'm not in the mood yet to go there

maybe because I took the pic outside. See the chrome painted front parts? Not the same as the chrome body.

Chainer those arms you mentioned were the ones I painted chrome. So it seems the paint is different from the chrome plated plastic after all. The stickers are gone. I still have one arm with the sticker, but the other is gone (this is why I decided to paint 2 arms of njr molga chrome) so nothing else can be done.
