Got a lot off eBay that had lots of Fury parts (namely armour and the buster blades, and boosters, and a leg, too), Death Stinger parts (including a backpack, I can restore the Stinger I'm gonna get from Deathy! XD Also: the front pincers, most of the back pincers, the leg guards), mostly complete Saicurtis (I think it's missing a wing) and a Molga... And one more thing... MOSTLY COMPLETE SCHNIEDER!!! EEEEE The tail piece didn't have the blades, it didn't have the little parts that go onto the paws, nor the nape piece (mane piece that goes under the jaw) and one part of the ear, but I am going to take a spare X part and darth a piece for it. Many pieces are broken, such as many parts on Saicurtis' nose piece, Molga's V tail piece, and a "mustache" piece on Schneider, which I can darth from an extra X armor unit... I'm thinking of customising this Schneider, then if I ever get a mint Schnei, keeping it that way. So... What colourscheme should my Schnei have?!  (I've replaced the tail blades with the little thingies that come off the side of Diplogun's head, since my Diplo is waiting to be a Diplo-Roy custom.) Oh, forgot to mention the price for all this: less than $33. (It was 32 and cents.) Thirty three for the best parts of a Fury, Stinger and mostly complete Schnieder, plus smaller zoids. X3 Is that not yay? |

Congrats Celtic! That's an amazing grab! I think I'm going to start an ebay account so I can get in on all of this. What really convinced me was when I saw a DSJ and Holotech shieldies for $35 each, so cheap and no one picked them up! O.o They ended up going to auction and actually going for more than the buy price if I remember correctly. Good for the seller! XD
But I digress, all you need is replacement parts and a Jager and you've picked up all three CAS's really cheap!
Color suggestion? I'd say maybe a turquiose-esque blue for the main armor and maybe yellow for the blades? Not sure if that would work, but I'd go for something subtly less "annoying/ flashy" than the orange and baby blue. XD

I darthed a replacement piece:  And used Diplo-Roy's rejected pieces for the tail:  And I've decided to do a darker theme, because I remembered some fingernail polish I have... (It's black with red sparkles) Just need to make a black base so that I don't have to use as much fingernail paint. Gonna do something similar to my very first original zoid's theme... I forget the name of the zoid, but it was black with a red hatch, and the blades were blue tipped with red. (I described it as stylised bloodstains, I believe.) |

That's right  Because everyone knows that when anyone buys zoids, it's always for you and not for us. |

Woo, Noir and Raven are some of the more awesome color schemes out there, and that's a hella nice price.

Congrats Celtic! I was thinking about going for that lot but I just bought a Fuhrer from the same seller, who coincidentally arrived yesterday. XD I can't believe I didn't have a Fuhrer before. O.O They're so cool! XD  Helcat Noir! Been thinking of grabbing one of those recently, tell me how it is! |

Thanks guys. ^^ I'm glad you didn't buy, I was really looking forward to it. ^^;; Thanks for not bidding, Kitsune! When did you get the Fuhrer? How much longer should I wait for the parcel to come? *excited* @ Tilly - Yea! Noir and Raven were more of the "Oh those are nice. I'll never own one" things. XD @itty - Helcat Noir is, it's a black-silver helcat that's from VSII, AKA Battle Legends. I have to admit, part of me wants it for the picture of Kouki XD; *likes Kouki* I wonder if the pilots will look like Kouki. o.o And Raven Raptor is another ... uh... painting one like Tyrann, isn't it? Yuji Kaida or something. I love the paint jobs of those two, I thought of customing my second Helcat to look like Noir, but it wouldn't look the same... So I'm excited. |

Yeah I never even see a Helcat Noir or Raven Raptor on ebay. Sounds like a good plan for the other Helcat! Right now I'm trying to get a Konig Wolf off ebay that has the CP-22 rifle with it |
