So, myself and Ghostie were having an early morning discussion the other day, and it came down to the multitude of zoids in our room and me trying to figure out what the closest real life counterparts to these zoids would be in reality. Here is what I've got so far, perhaps you can think of some too! Zoid name: Command Wolf Military classification: Scout vehicle RL equivilent: Leichter Panzerspähwagen Zoid name: DiBison Military classification: Missile Artillery RL equivilient: M270 MLRS Zoid Name: Shield Liger Military classification: Light Tank RL equivilient: M551 Sheridan Zoid Name: Blade Liger Military classification: Medium tank RL equivilient: M4 Sherman Zoid Name: Liger Zero Military classification: Main Battle tank RL Equivilient: Leopard II Zoid Name: Death Saurer (not the giant mutated anime one ) Military classification: Super Heavy Tank RL Equivilient: Panzer VIII Maus Although perhaps the anime version could be played by the Landkreuzer P. 1500 Monster: Thankfully though, the P. 1500 never made it past project stage.

Nice! Pity it wasn't based on looks though, cuz that Leichter Panzerspähwagen is a dead ringer for a Cannon Tortoise!

Zoids Name: Storm Sworder Military Classification: Air Combatant PL equivalent: F-22 Raptor I've always thought of the Storm Sworders as F-22 Raptors. It's probably what made me choose Storm Sworders as the Seekers' alt mode since Starscream was a F-22 Raptor in the 2007 movie Storm Sworder Jet was just asking to be Skywarp! I always laugh because their color schemes are exactly the same.
