it’s dot-Smeat!

Since I don’t have the funds to get the Dos Godos, and Tiga has all the required parts, I’m having it fill in. And since the TS motor is being borrowed by all my other windups, I’m using a windup motor from Spinosapper.

ARGH, the hoses on this one!

Thanks to a sale at HLJ I was able to pick this up for cheap(ish).

When I was taking pics of all the possible weapon variations, I also took a few that took advantage of Hammer Rock’s “serving tray”. Somehow I forgot to post most of them, though. The tiny food in pics 1–4 came from a co-worker, and pic 5′s is from one of my mom’s Re-Ment sets.

This motor is one of new developments from the Rebirth Century line. It consists of a reworked windup-sized gearbox and an external battery pack. Official releases with this motor are Barigator TS, Tiga Godos, and the super-rare Merda TS (a “Guylos” colored limited). SO, I wanted to see how many Zoids could use this motor, [...]

Due to a lucky find from a US shop, the inflated prices of Rebirth zoids, the horrible exchange rate, and shipping costs, I somehow managed to get this LIMITED version for about as much as the regular version would have cost me. This was supposed to be one of those “faction switch” limiteds, but it [...]

OK, not so much a review as it is some highlights of the neato workings. This is because I’m lazy.

I’ve been wanting to do this swap ever since the dawn of time—aka, when that other guy did it. It needed a bit more contrast, so I kept some of the silver bits instead of doing a full swap.

Box damage, half price, woot! That and finally being able to do the awesome swap would have been good news enough, but it turns out the original color scheme is pretty wicked. I never knew the purple parts had a metallic flake finish. A-and the clear red is beautiful.

TakaraTomy commemorated the 10th anniversary of the anime by releasing more anime-accurate versions of certain kits. One of them was the Iron Kong of a certain Germanic colonel who likes gatling guns. The upside: a clear green gearbox, and inclusion of the super ultra mega rare CP-A1 (a sprue of connector parts that lets you [...]

Best HMM ever! More to come… someday…

In the Rebirth line, ol’ Godos got two upgrades! (Tiga means three in Malaysian, and we all know what Dos means, right?). A big part of the fun of this kit is the new motor, as you can see here. The other big thing (introduced in Dos Godos) is the choice to be motorized or [...]

stay tuned…
