Well this one came out of left field! RMZ has announced a new variant, the RMZ-016 Blade Liger Panzer, scheduled for Winter 2025! This Zoid is... exactly what it sounds like- An RMZ Blade Liger with Panzer armor installed. It featured as a primary character in the Zoids Battle Films short (well, sort of, they used an HMM, but still!) and was announced alongside the other armor. The prototype is on display at the venue, and Hobby Watch and AmiAmi have both posted photos. I'm rather curious if this armor will fit the following kit...

 Alongside the Blade Liger Panzer, RMZ also announced a Liger Zero Falcon, scheduled for 2026!! This kit featured as the other key protagonist of the animated short, sporting Liger Zero armor for the rear legs. It seems the RMZ will be fully clad, and will be the first Zero we're getting in the line! It's interesting to start with one of the less popular armors.

 A new group photo of the RMZ display at the event reveals for the very first time that RMZ is planning to also do the Command Wolf Urban Warfare Spec. from Episode 16 of Chaotic Century! (Name subject to change; the text isn't very visible.) This episode was so iconic to me when I was younger, so I'm stoked that they're making an official kit of it!

 The prototype for the RMZ Zabat is on display at the event! Not only do they have two of them around to show off the articulation, but it also seems like this Zoid will come with a special hangar bay with bars in it. This means the Zabat will probably be able to hang upside down, like a real bat, which was one of the coolest features of the old Tomy kit.

 The first promo image of the RMZ Saber Tiger Raven Spec. brings with it the announcement that pre-orders are starting in November. Even more interesting, however, is that it includes broken armor pieces for the face! In the recently-broadcasted stream we got to see that it had peeled claws, but it's awesome to know they're going the fully distance and including the damaged maw of this hateful Zoid. It also has a display at the event.

 Kotobukiya's promo twitter made two exciting announcements today, the Lightning Saix Irvine Spec. Recolor 2000 and the HMM Gun Sniper Rinnon Spec. Re/color 2001 with a slash through it because... y'know. NC/0!. We don't know yet what exactly these rereleases will entail. If they'll include anime pilots, painted or otherwise, what 'recolor' will mean, or what other changes they may still have. Even so, it's exciting news for fans who missed the earlier waves of anime Zoids, and have waited patiently for another chance!

 The event display for the Advanced Zi series shows off a brand new variant, the Murasame Liger Original Color Version! This variant has the striking blue that Murasame Liger was first released in (as a kit), still sporting a chrome blade. The display even seems to have a recreation of the glow-in-the-dark blade, which was a limited option part from the old Tomy line!

 Zoids Official also posted sketches of the Advanced Zi Liger Zero CAS units! This may be why RMZ is starting later in the armor line~ It's exciting to see X represented alongside the other armors, and I look forward to the prototypes.

 Zoids Official posted a very exciting teaser that revealed the CAS units for Liger Zero would be coming to the Advanced Zi series! The image teases not just Jager, Panzer, and Schneider, but also the X CAS, which'll match the limited Liger Zero EM.

 The AZ Liger Zero Empire went up for pre-order a while back, and now has its own Takara Tomy Mall page. The kit comes with a standard blue pilot. It's scheduled to release in March 2026 for 13,200 yen (tax included.)

 The AZ-13 Canory Molga was recently announced, and already has a product page! This kit will bring the Glide Cannon into the AZ line, and features the classic Zenebas color scheme. The product page has several neat concept arts and tons of pictures. The kit is scheduled to release in May 2026 for 6,050 Yen (tax included.)

 The RMZ Saber Tiger Raven was shown off in a recent live stream by T-Spark. This is our first look at the actual kit, if I'm not mistaken, and shows that it'll include all the standard weapons, optional blue or red leg armor, and optional splayed claws based loosely off of the armor-peeled Saber Tiger from the anime. The stream featured the RMZ Geno Saurer Raven, Shield D. Prime, RMZ Red Horn, Saber Tiger Raven, AZ Canory Molga, and a variety of others.

 A page is now up for the Red Horn Guylos Color, with some shout out promo art. It stays much truer to the original, almost looking cute from the side view while looking rather fierce from the front. It includes all the parts you'd expect, with a nice range of motion. The kit is scheduled to release in May 2026 for 6,600 yen (tax included).

 SigemikanZ over on X, who works on a lot of the customs used in official promotional art posted images of the customs used for the RMZ Blade Liger and Command Wolf Irvine! I highly recommend checking out their work. They also do a lot of cool customs.

 We've gotten some pictures of the Hunter Wolf Garo collab by Synergenex, and man, this thing is beautiful! The wolf features gold chrome armor with chrome silver accent pieces and red eyes. It also includes special Garo-themed stickers. The kit will be up for pre-order at the Garo 20th Anniversary Exhibit for 7,700 yen. We aren't certain if it'll be released elsewhere later, but the article by Dengeki Hobby noted that it might be sold on the event site later. The wolf also has its own custom lore.

 The Cannon Tortoise MPV released, and we got to see some brand new box art for the kit! Funny enough, it even features a little Shotodile walking beside the tort. It's always nice seeing diverse box art animations like this.

 Two new Synergenex kits have been announced as part of the Great Extinction Exhibition, scheduled to be held at the National Museum of Nature and Science. The venue will open on November 1st and run until February 23rd, 2026. The new kits are Redonda Gabrigator Rare Bone Ver. 2025 and Dimepulsar Rare Bone Ver. 2025. It seems 'Rare Bone' has become a label applying to these museum kits in general, with these two kits featuring particularly unique color schemes. The exhibit, which is focusing on the five mass extinction events throughout prehistory, will include displays for Dimetrodon and Redondasaurus replicas, among others, thus the choice in Wild kits.

 This guy was announced at an event a while back, but we finally have an official announcement for the AZ-02EX2 Liger Zero Empire Spec. and man does it look gorgeous in these colors! This kit is a T-Spark / TTMall exclusive with pre-orders expected to open in September. Now, in the past, some TT Mall exclusives have appeared on the Kotobukiya US store, but I can't help but notice that this post distinctly mentions it being a domestic release, so we'll have to wait and see.

 We now have an official web page for the AZ-12 Geno Breaker, which as usual contains some lovely concept art of the kit, as well as insights into the 3D model! There's tons of additional photos to view. The kit is scheduled to release in March 2026 for 19,800 yen (tax included). Those who order through the Takara Tomy Mall before August 31st will receive five limited postcards. There's a couple of awesome videos for you to check out as well!

 On the list of new products we also have an official page for the Shield Liger Bang Special! The page includes some (frankly adorable) concept art and a ton of pictures. This kit is expected to release in March 2026 for 6,600 yen (tax included).
