- Extra Details

  • The B sprue (containing pieces from the legs and arms) comes in both silver and dark blue, meaning you can mix and match the colors to recreate the HMM-style color separation, or go for an original Tomy motorized Gun Sniper look.

  • An alternate concept for the box art would've featured the Gun Sniper W2 running alongside the Shield Liger DCS-J as they were entering Nixie Base.

    The final box art was chosen because it had a wide variety of builds that could be featured, matching the numerous ways that you could build the kit. For example, if you look closely at the final box art (up above in the Technical Data section), the Gun Sniper in the front has almost all-silver legs, matching the old Tomy model kit. The one beside it has a blue and silver combo, more closely resembling the HMM style. The Gun Sniper in the back also has the Short Beam Gun on the arms instead of the usual gatlings.

  • The fact that the Gun Sniper on the right has no WW unit is also a shout out to the Zoids lore. In the old Zoids Battle Story, Gun Snipers were known to throw off their auxiliary equipment when entering close quarters. The Gun Sniper in the back is doing exactly that. This made the Zoid more lightweight, making it more effective in melee battles.
