The first of its kind. A fully posable Zoid kit manufactured by Kotobukiya.
- 491 parts including 8 spring coils and 1 core
- Took me a total of 6 hours and 30 minutes to complete this thing.

The contents

The sprues

The head
- Took me 55 minutes to complete.
- Be very careful with the teeth, they are extremely sharp!

The body
- Took me 3 hours to complete
- Make sure you get all the parts needed before construction because it pretty tough to deconstruct once you miss pa piece.

Hind part

Middle part

Front part

The idea of the core is really cool.

Chest/belly part

Tail

Whole body

The legs and paws
- Took me 1 hour to complete 4 paws
- Took me 2 hours and 30 minutes to complete the legs

Pics

The tail has an extra segment w/c won't be used but I opted to use it for a longer tail... looks nicer IMO.

Longer tail

Shorter tail (manual based)

Fun pics

Anyway the tail is segment as far as I know.

mechapunk: seems like it. a far cry when it was a fresh board in 2001. we started with just Malvin,me, omni x, and oliver. then it rose to about a hundred members, lurkers and the like. now it is a Ghost town. Oct 2, 2014 19:49:27 GMT 8
