Blast from the past! A guy named Card (from the Zoidfans Yahoo group made this back in 2003. I forgot about it until just recently (March, 2011) when it fell out of a Zoid I was about to sell. It looks almost exactly like a chrome pilot, but it has an actual weight to it. When you drop it, it goes “clink”!
I got this off the Yahoo Japans, mainly because it was the cheapest way to get an OJR smoke colored canopy (got it for 1000 yen). Turns out it’s a very sweet repaint here. Good detailing, though oddly the dood didn’t trim the stickers (it doesn’t hurt the model any).
Another ebay catch. I like the color scheme on this. I think the pilot lady suffered a bit when shipped from Singapore, but otherwise this is a sweet find.
I have no idea where these came from or what the deal is. Someone sent me a few pages from an old (80s) Japanese magazine, and these were on one of the pages. I imagine it was some kind of contest. I also totally forgot to repost these when I moved everything to WordPress.
I got this off the ebay a long time ago. Dood stuck to the NAR color scheme, but toned down the yellow to something more manageable. Great detailing too!
