Okay, well, first things first, this isn't MY zoid. Its Ligers ^^; I'm just giving it its light system, and posability. SO DONT YELL AT ME FOR STEALING. Anyway... I just got started on the battery box. The original plan was to use a 9v battery and small circuit board, but that 'small' circuit board, and that 'big' battery took up too much room. Now, since its the weekend, I can't go back to school to get the materials needed to shrink it, so I am going to use either button cells, or a 9v lithium battery. The intended purpose of the circuit is two things. The dial on the right controls a set of strobe lights. It controls how fast they blink. From once every 1-2 seconds, to so fast that it appears solid. The other dial is a dimmer circuit for the eyes. Or in this case, cockpit. XD I may mass produce these things, so I can make them use nine volts and stuff, and give them to you guys. If you want, that is ^^; Not much to go on so far, just a few photos. I'm not gonna make much progress till I clean my desk, there is NO room. And I was busy fixing battery boxes for liger as well, so didn't really start on the shieldy ^^; Here are some photos. The circuit board, and all of its untrimmed glory. The bottom, how messy. XD Now with extensions! The final product, closed. However, I have an issue with trying to figure out how its gonna stay closed, being that I shaved the screw holder off... ^^; Any ideas? Thats what the inside looks like for now. So what do you guys think? And a pack of 100 orange led's should be here in a week... hopefully.

I can guarantee it will be an awsome shieldy when all done thanks to itman making him posable and giving him a full LED light work out. and the paint scheme I am gonna be doing on him. It will be a Liger that the great Spartan 117 will be proud of lol. I got the idea when I saw a mogla painted up to look like Samus Aran from Metroid.

Okay, here is an update, most likely one of two this night ^^; Got the parts done, all that remains is waiting for the epoxy on the feet to dry. I feel inovative for the head, since I had an idea and went with it, and it worked! Its hard to explain, so look at the pictures ^^; IT WORRRKS!

Wow! That shield liger looks fantastic, colors and all! I could never do something as complicated as add an LED to a zoid or make it posable, I would fail miserably. XD

He is looking cool, and old shieldy is not even finished being painted yet. Itman was kind enough to offer to make my old shieldy poseable and do up an LED light system then again I did give him my old broken down fury, has all the parts other than the drills, Those are on my custom Energy Liger.
