I'M GETTING THE SABER!!! YAYZ FOR B-DAY MONEY!!! *Is over excited and flails arms while running in a circle* Totally can't wait for him to come, and my King Liger <3 Comrade Tilly: I hate cars too and I despise driving. Just a big stress inducer. |

Congrats Shadow!!! Mine just shipped out from Hong Kong on Friday. I can't wait for him to arrive. I want a Gul Tiger whenever those are supposed to be re-released, March, April? Still debating what I want for my birthday, probably just give a list of zoids to my parents and tell them to order them. Man I'm going to have so many unbuilt zoids laying around. Zoids in boxes make me sad.  Oh is anyone buying the HMM Scissors Chicken (Geno Breaker)? My brother told me I had too many tigers/ligers and wants me to get it. lol Though it's a little out of my price range so I'll have to think about ordering one. |

Cool ^^ I wanted a Lidier back when it came out, but missed him. So I went for the King Liger instead. Zoids is boxes, sounds like me during x-mas. Poor Konig and Saix were stuck in their boxes for 3 or 4 days til I got to them :< Scissors Chicken! lol! Was never a big fan of the genos and he's totally way too expensive. I know how you feel though, my roomie always complains I have nothing but kitties and wolves. |

Glad I'm not alone on the Liger, tiger, wolves thing. xD You reminded me I want Lidier too! *adds him to an already too long list* You're making me spend more money! If you still have money I think imageanime still has him for $33. darn TOMY for running our wallets dry! |

I envy anyone getting the re-release Gul Tiger... he comes with an additional grade-up kit... I'd get one, but I got the vintage Gul Tiger already, so I lost my bargaining chip TT_TT As for the Scissors Chicken, I'm passing on that too ^^; The crappy Exchange rate right now means that HMM Saber Tiger SS set me back almost £100 when before the crunch it would've been about £50/£60 So I dread to think what the Breaker would come to! |

Has the pound really devaluated that much? 'cause I paid about 90 USD for the STSS. Man, I remember the times when your money was worth twice as much as ours. Money sucks these days, -_-, When I go to Canada they take US money at par now, earlier we would get about 1.50 CDN for 1.00 USD.
Toy-wave was cool with the STSS when I pre-ordered they gave an estimated shipping weight and made me pay for that weight even though it turned out to be much heavier than what they initially thought. (Paid for 990g when it is 1400 now.) So I got somewhat of a discount. I'm slowly learning pre-order is the way to go with this collecting thing. lol
But at least you have an 'authentic' Gul Tiger unlike the one I want which will just be a remake. You will have something unique unlike the rest of use who will just have a re-release one. Yours has value and personality! ;D
*edits* *gets excited like a small child on Christmas*
My STSS made it to America last night! Only a couple more days now. ^-^
I'm so immature. lol

Ya, at one point the pound was something like 1:1.8/1:1.9 to the dollar. Now it's about 1:1.4 Also in my case I had to pay EMS shipping from Japan to the UK which ain't cheap ^^; I just checked mine, it's in the national hub, but it looks like I got some customs charges to come ontop of that too! *Sigh* I never used to get charges... I reckon it's because of the exchange rate... Looks like I'm gonna have to rethink my future Zoid collecting... In regards to the Gul Tiger, Ya, I guess you're right on that one ;D It's even more sentimental to me because it's motor was broken when I got it, and I fixed it. |

I had always planned to get the zaber fang schubaltz. Just never really got around to doing it, i must say thanks to this thread it reminded me and I now got one one the way from toy-wave.
Will be a shame though, I'll have to restrain myself and not construct it until I move into a new place in 2 months. I'll take any precaution to avoid a zoid casuality.

Got mine a couple of days ago and built it, 'tis awesome! Oddly enough I had more trouble with this one, i.e. parts didn't want to stay in place.
@vig- glad we got you to get one, a truly awesome zoid. It's going to be hard to not build it for 2 months! A true test of self-restraint. xP
On other news mine also survived a nose-dive to the floor from about 3 feet up. I was rather surprised that it just shed a few parts that could easily be popped back.

Built mine too ;D I had the same problem with pieces not wanting to stay and I have to shave off some plastic on the one fore leg. It's way too tight. I'll be super gluing everything once i paint him. I hate the red and pale yellow. Definitely needs to be crimson and gold ;3

Thats good to hear, truly I had my HMM desert shieldy do same,he split in three and sure i got most of the parts back on, but some tiny little parts i just could not quite figure out. . I hate the red and pale yellow. Definitely needs to be crimson and gold ;3 crimson & gold sounds like a lovely choice, ya gotta show us the results when/if done |

Glad we could co-erce ya  It's an awesome Zoid and I ain't even finished building it yet. Ouch, the temptation will be terrible! @ Shadow Blade and kitsunefyn: Ya, everything is a lot tighter than the standard HMM Saber Tiger... somethings took so much force to press in that I had to take a break afterwards ^^; I just used superglue on the stuff that just popped out again. |
