Hello! I'm Blueeyesgirl3, and that's my name on dA too so I should be easy to find  I'm fairly new to zoid collecting myself (just started late last year), so I only have a few Zoids too (3 of them I haven't even finished building yet!). Living in Scotland, which has like, no Zoids at all apart from my collection, I know how you feel  |

Raven's my favourite character, but there's a difference between having a favourite and claiming it's the best. Good to know I'm not the only one! Hrm, I wonder if I could build a zoid out of crumpets? GENIUS! That would be a true British Zoid! Pirate: Indeed that is true. Nothing better than an evil mod to keep members in line *shifty eyes* And with the Admin going Batshit crazy on people every so often we make a great team eh? XD |

America's zoidless too. Unless you hit a thrift store lucky Indeed. I sometimes get lucky at Groovy's and that's about it -_-b I don't even know what Groovy's is. I betcha it's a great popular store I JUST LIVE IN A SHITHOLE. We don't even have a fucking Big Lots or Game Stop or Sam's Club or Costco or even a gd mall. >_> |

I forget exactly how Renee started it, but she sells vintage toys, mostly from the 80s and 90s. It's where I found my Strike Zilla and original Skywarp. I also sometimes find good scrap gundams there to kitbash too. Next time I go I'll have to take pictures :3 |

Comrade Heart-of-Amethyst I saw that you added me to your watchlist, greatly appreciated <3 I think Van had pretty good character development, but I get what you're saying! Nah, I don't hate his guts, I just find some of the fangirling a little bit weird. Yes, Hiltz is a wonderful character! And is it wrong that in a way, I kind of like Herman more than Karl? "I can't seem to open my left eye, but you did great kid!" @adlas See, now that leaves me wondering where I've heard your username before! Yeah, even more annoying since he kills the freaking command wolf in GF, which was always and will always be 100x cooler than the lightning saix. The only thing I can praise him for in GF is leading to the Nicolo episode, which has to be one of my favourites in the series <33 (I really like Reese, though I think she's a really underrated character!) @celtic I really need to read the manga! I've been planning on ordering some issues from amazon for a while but have never gotten round to it, unless there's anywhere online where I can read it :/ I adored Prozen! Though, as I have said many times on many websites (usually youtube) did anyone else find it weird that his voice actor did the introduction to the show? "The war on planet Zi is finally over" is kind of chilling coming from the guy who made it all go to s**t in the first place! I don't really remember Polta too well, from what I remember he annoyed me a bit, but I do see what your saying, personally I think Bit's character prevents any decent villains from developing, seriously Harry's sister was the most evil force in that show. (I bet mine turned out longer) Ack, tough break! Sounds like a serious case of poor management :/ At least you have that! I am jealous of your American thrift stores >:[ @deathy What would we do without you ;D? I've resorted to amazon, which can be difficult at times because all they sell are shield ligers, command wolf irvines, gravity zoids and the odd zaber fang, once I saw a Liger Zero Midnight Shield on there, that would've been my first zoid if it hadn't been for pre-christmas lack of money! @shadow Blade So its basically ordering online for most of us? Ugh. I wish I had a job =_= Comrade Bluey Nomface I'll be sure to watch out for you! I love Scotland, so I'm still rather jealous! @ghostliger Couldn't agree more! I have nothing against people who like Raven, its just some of the fans can be a little bit weird about it. Held together by jam and accompanied by a zaber fang teapot. @shadow Blade That sounds like a wonderful place *o* </reams of text>

I generally find Karl more attractive, but if I had to choose, I like them equally. Hermann is pretty cool. |

Ya, that's where I first saw the LZMS too. Went to order, only to find out they didn't ship outside the US. I got mine from Toys R Us in the end, during the Hasbro Zoids Cast off influx the UK and Aus got after Hasbro canceled the US line a few years ago. Regrettably yus. Oooooh... |

Pirate: Here, here. I too appreciate Reese as a character which made it more painful that she was just yelling Raven's name in the Final Four. GF writing, not the best there ever was. And sort of makes Zoids a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. :/ And I tend to like characters regardless of character development or not. It's nice if it's well-done, but it's not a requirement for me to enjoy a character for who they are. But then again, I do like both complex stories and simple stories. And the manga makes Raven more likeable than his anime counterpart by far, by making him show weakness more often. And Van punching him in Volume 14 is extremely satisfying too.  And as for my DA username, I seem to recall commenting on the "In an Ideal World" picture you drew. It's a cool drawing by the way. As for this username, no idea.

Hermann and Riese are both really underrated, and I like them both. And Camford!
I figure Riese would calm down some after the final four-type stuff and go back to being awesome. Though I do remember her saying something all "we're all doomed, ahaha"-ish in the middle of the battle, which seemed very her...much more than the RAAAAVEN. Why not at least have her sic her bugs on Prozen and fail or something?

@migray and Celtic Exactly! Don't get me wrong, Karl's a pretty cool character, just Herman seemed to have a lot more to him. That said, the SS Zaber fang is pretty sweet. @ghostliger Oh no, this was on the UK amazon! Hence why I was so shocked. Damn that was lucky! The nearest Toys R Us to me is in Derbyshire, so I only ever went a couple of times to buy beyblades, limited bionicle (I got the rest for Woolworths, those were the days) and pokemon tat. @adlas Totally agree with, CC did have a lot more depth to the story than GF :/ Okay, I don't just want to I need[/b] to get the manga now! I really can't understand why no one punched him in the anime. I sure would've done. That must be it then! Yeah, I really like that one, although Hiltz's shoulders are really screwy in that picture o_e Comrade Tilly I'd totally forgotten about Camford! She was great, especially when she was in the same scenes as Dr D. Those two played off each other really well. I really don't like how they made her so useless and whiny at the end of GF "Why can't he understand that I don't want him to die like this when its all so pointless?!" ugh. That whole scene made me cringe a little bit. She should've gotten with Hiltz and continued her evil ways, she was much cooler when she was evil ;| Hahah, Prozen under mind control, now that's something I'd like to see! |
