Chapter 3 has been added to Zoids Wild EX-ZERO! This chapter introduces the Sniptera, and also a clear connection to the anime world of Zoids Wild Zero. This is interesting, as there was mention in an earlier interview that they would've liked to include Zoids like the Genospino without contradicting the lore of the show. I'm sure we can all also appreciate flying sort of cats!

 

 The next 3 chapters have been added for Official Fan Book 2! This concludes the story segment of the book, and what a conclusion it was! From here, work will be moving towards the Zoid profile sections, gathering info for the Zoids of the Empire and the Republic. Thanks to everyone who has been reading this book along with us!

 

 Dengeki Hobby Magazine 2005 April, July, September, and October issues have been added to the articles section! These issues include a lot of notable things. Customs on Gravity Saurer, Ultimate Seismo, Blade Liger BLOX, Rez Wolf, Reaper, and Souga. As well as concept art of Ultimate & Berserk Seismo, Murasame & Hayate Liger, Deadly Kong, Bamburian, and the Bio Zoids. Tons of stuff for you to check out!

 

 An article on face markings has been added to the encyclopedia! This features not only an overview of official statements on face markings, but also a fairly extensive list of them, with visual reference on a generic pilot. There isn't a lot of rhyme or reason to what face markings are used, but it seems to be a topic that people enjoy delving into. If you notice any markings missing, feel free to contact us and let us know!

 

 Temporary indexes (basically stats only) have been added for the Berserk Fuerher, Bamburian, Ankyrox, Arosaurer, and Bazootle. Larger indexes have been added for the Barigator and Guysack. Guysack includes a beginning color guide!

 

 July and October 2005 have been added to DHM. October includes some Generations content as well as a look at model kits for Souga, Hayate Liger, the Reaper custom, a custom Blade Liger BLOX, and Hayate Liger concept art. July includes Generations, a look at the Murasame Liger and Bio Megaraptor model kits, Souga and Rez Wolf customs, and Bio Zoid concept art.

 

 September and December 2019 have been added to CoroCoro Comic. December includes some awesome images for Drei Panther and Genospino, while September includes images for Sniptera and Beast Liger ABU.

 

 Ninjas, and scorpions, and mummies, oh my! Chapter 6 of Zoids Generations has been added, and it has some fairly dramatic scenes. I won't spoil to much. We only have 2 more chapters of the main story to go, but that's only half of the book. There's still customs and models yet to do!

 

 Zoids Wild Zero has been added to the anime section. Most of these pages are placeholders for now. Although I don't plan to flesh out most of the pages until the Blu-rays come out (to avoid having to take all the images twice), the character and Zoid pages consist of the official website profiles for now. There's also an episode list (translated by Falcarius!) and a concept art page, which gathers all of the concept art from various media sources into a single location!

 

 The Command Wolf's index page has been updated with pre-modern era info, covering its history as a wild Zoid. This was all covered in the Zoids Bible already. I'll also be overhauling the index soon to incorporate the Zoids Stats page, so that a good chunk of the Zoids at least have an index page with their stats and weapon lists.

 The current standard of not launching a page until I've collected all description stuff, compiled custom cut weapon images, media appearances, and sometimes color schemes has proven woefully ineffecient. As a result I'll be shifting to smaller index pages which begin with just stats and maybe a primary image. Don't worry, those fleshed out index pages won't be going anywhere, but I'll be adding to pages gradually as I organize info and images for them. This will at least give visitors some quick reference when they need it.

 

 The model kit page for the HMM Fire Fox has been updated with an automatic translation of the story segment and concept artwork from its instruction manual. This update was, ironically, done a couple nights ago right before they announced news on how inclusive the Art of HMM would be (read in the below news post). Now that we know we'll be getting this amazing collection of HMM goodness, I'll be holding off on posting anymore of these. Instead I'll focus on expanding the pages for information that's not mentioned on the main product pages, special release notes, etc. A special thanks to Falcarius for this one! While this is an automatic translation and will still have mistakes, it does reference some info he posted a while ago regarding the names, quotes, etc. from this story.

 

 3 more chapters have been added to Official Fan Book 2! In these chapters we meet the Geno Breaker and Death Stinger, and both Zoids prove to be a terrifying force. We only have 3 story chapters left in this book, including the epilogue, but they're shaping up to have some awesome doom and gloom.

 

 I've posted a first ever custom to the site! A custom of the WF kit Gilvader Modoki. Although I love starting custom projects, finishing them is... uhh, a lot rarer, haha. So for now customs are linked at the bottom of the model kits page, until such a time that there are enough to warrant their own section on the site. Hopefully more will follow later in the year! This was a great first kit to work with.

 

 A huge update has been rolled out for the HMM Model Kit section! This section has now been updated to mirror what we've got going on with the Zoids Wild section, where every thumbnail is now clickable, even if we don't have a review for that kit. Reviews are now on a separate page, which you'll see linked at the top of each individual Zoid's page. Their main page, however, is for the official product info and includes a full stat list (almost all translations are courtesy of Falcarius!), as well as the stock images, box art, etc.

 This section is still undergoing some fine tuning. We've still got a couple pages to fix and upload. A select few Zoids have story bits translated by Falcarius (Saber Tiger Gold, Blade Liger Leon, etc.) In the future I'll be posting google translated stories for the rest (each page has the appropriate warning), but this will come much later. There are also plans to update with blog entry information, relevant links, and additional promotions that aren't covered on the official pages, like Jager's special painted claws.

 

 An update has rolled out for the next chapter of Zoids Official Fan Book Vol. 2! This chapter introduces Irvine, and the Gojulas the Ogre. As many of you may know, Keiji Fujiwara, the Japanese voice actor of Irvine and Jack Cisco, passed away on April 12th. It is only fitting that this was the next chapter to be added. He provided the voice for one of the most famous and beloved characters in Zoids, as well as numerous other roles in popular series. We wish all the best to those mourning his loss.

 

 Episodes 12 and 13 have been added to the dubtitles page for Zoids Wild. Episode 13 is generally where everyone agrees this series makes its mark. It sets into motion many of the stronger story aspects of Wild, so if you've not given the series a chance so far, we recommend at least watching this episode. On the note of watching, we've also changed it from the youtube release to a dual-audio blu-ray release, generously provided by Mecha! So you can truly appreciate the fights that take place. We will update our older files to be timed to these files shortly.

 

 Zoids Wild EX-ZERO has been given its own page over in the books section (last image in the stories category). It is also still linked through the HJM article. With this change, Chapter 2 has also been added! Please bare in mind that this uses automatic translation, so will have some mistakes. All scans are there, though, including story pages, advertisements, etc.

 I also wanted to ask for some opinions. The books section right now has every volume posted separately. Do you like this format, or would you rather each series only have a single image, leading to a main page, like what the Official Fan Books have? You can cast your vote through this Straw Poll.

 

 I've never been quite happy with our last revamp of the article section, which was messy and honestly a bit hard to navigate. The section has been updated to be broken down into categories: Merchandise, Assorted, and Reading categories. This should make it easier to find what you're looking for at a glance. The actual magazine scans have been put into their own column to make it easier not to confuse them with similarly named articles.

 The Buying Zoids From Japan article (renamed Shopping For Zoids!, and now located as the very first item you see) has been completely rewritten from the ground up. The article now includes a F.A.Q. section, as well as separate pages for Deputy Services and Stores & Markets. The Deputy Services have been updated for a less scroll-heavy layout, with sections added (for those with enough info) for pros, cons, and shipping standards. Japamart and White Rabbit Express have been added to our list of popular services. The info table for every service now lists whether or not it covers Kotobukiya Direct exclusive items, such as the Liger Zero EM.

 Stores and Markets have been moved to their own page, divided into International Stores (New Items), International Stores (Used Items), and Japanese Only Markets. Each major store includes a basic rundown, location, and stocking info (if it regularly gets certain items in stock, etc.) Some stores have been added.

 

 The Zoids Generations page has been updated with Chapter 5! In this chapter we make a quick pit stop to participate in the Sunlight Festival. Soon after, Midori leaves on a task to deliver a warning to Veauregard, the owner of a Zoid Ranch that's already under a lot of pressure. As always, this chapter is translated using google translate, so expect a number of errors. Thank you for your understanding!

 

 The Zoids Official Fan Book page has been with chapters 3 & 4 of Official Fan Book 2! These chapters are relatively short, but we'll be moving into the meat of the story soon. For now, the bulk of the Republic's forces have to make their way to Europa, before the real war begins! Please be aware that this page uses automatic translations, so may contain errors.
