Distant Cousins of Zoids

Starriors had something that the US Zoids never had: a story line. The short version: Solar flares are destroying the earth, so the humans split the scene and build these robots to take care of things until it blows over. But then something goes wrong (of course)…

This story was told via the magic of comic books! There was a four issue miniseries put out by Marvel, as well as small comic books included with each toy.

These little guys have pull-back motors, for the zooming around. Note that the toys’ colors are different from their comic book depictions. Also, I have discovered my Thinktank has the wrong accessory colors.

These figure heavily into the miniseries comic’s plot.

These guys are tiny and cute, and have pull-back motors. They also have spring loaded claws, for the gripping of things.
