A korean website called gmarket has started stocking some of the various Zoids Wild merchandise, including sticker books, lunch boxes, game books, coloring books, and more! There are a ton of items to choose from, and they're all quite cheap, so take a look!

    On March 20th, Zoids Bases in Japan (that is, select stores) started passing out Wild Liger "Black Flame Ver." stickers for purchases over 2,000 yen. This sticker sheet is, once again, for the Wild Liger.

    The next set of Assemble Models for Zoids Wild have popped up for pre-order! This set includes the Fang Tiger, Gilraptor Commander, Dimepulsar, and Wild Liger. Which is a little unusual because the Wild Liger showed up before in the first issue. You can pre-order this on some sites for 4,104 ish yen (not including discount) for a box of 10. This means there will be some extras.

    The upcoming CoroCoro limited, the Wild Liger Extreme Release Form, has seen some new photos. These are posted over on the Zoids Official twitter.

    Zoids Wild: King of Blast has confirmed 6 new Zoids to be released in a free DLC available this summer! So far we've seen the Grachiosaurus, Hunter Wolf, and Dimepulsar. A general overview video was posted on the TT Youtube Channel, as well as some individual commercials. See their videos below!

Grachiosaurus

Hunter Wolf

Dimepulsar

    TakaraTomy posted a silly crossover video, with Zoids featured on their Ania playsets, which you can see featured at the beginning of the video~

    Zoids Official posted a double page spread from the Zoids Wild Manga. This snippet is from the April issue of CoroCoro~

    The Zoids Wild Anime twitter has posted some new renders from Zoids Wild. This includes the Dilophos Wild Blast, the Spideath's Wild Blast Mode and its pilot, Youkon. They also published some of Arashi's Concept Art.

    The HMM Liger Zero "Marking Plus Ver." has sold so well that they've already decided on a reissue, even before the kit was officially released. The reissue is scheduled for August, for 6,804 Yen~ The upcoming event on the 27th will be their new kit announcement! Participants are also able to receive a special badge.

    CoroCoro has made a page where they've posted several photos of their upcoming all clear Wild Liger. This kit looks absolutely beautiful. We covered this earlier, but to reiterate, it is a silver peel limited for CoroCoro Comic. Only 100 will be released through this limited time raffle. The Liger also comes with one Mane Claw as the center claw, and two Twin Fangs (from the Fang Tiger) cast in translucent plastic for the two outter claws.

    Earlier we posted about some names that were revealed through patent registrations. Now, thanks to the youtube channel Zoids Tuber, we have images to put to those names, along with some subtle new information. We'll go over these one at a time. It's worth noting that we also don't see the Styrazor in this list, so it may not be the last wave.

    ZW22 Gallagher's Personal Gilraptor: We've seen this guy before, and his release is soon! This is Gallagher's Gilraptor from the anime. A nice addition~ It's scheduled for April, for 3,000 yen.

    ZW24 Pachycedos: Pachycedos' Wild Blast has the crest come forward and close together. Depicted as a sort of grabbing motion in the manga. It's scheduled for June for 3,000 yen.

    ZW25 Beast Liger: Beast Liger contains a two phase Wild Blast. The Mane Claws now resemble actual claws, but in the second phase of the Wild Blast, they extend quite far past the Wild Liger's nose. It's a much further reach than the Wild Liger's previous Wild Blast. It is scheduled to be released in July for 3,500 yen.

    ZW26 Cannon Bull: With a design reminescent of bull Zoids in the past, this is the first Zoid noted to have a "Machine Blast." This special type of skill seems to be limited to long ranged Zoids, but it's one we haven't seen used in the series so far. Its Machine Blast will open up an array of guns on the back. It's scheduled to be released in July for 3,500 yen.

    ZW27 Raptoria: Raptoria is a new variant of the Raptor. It seems to have new silver equipment on the legs, arms, and back. These blades all join the giant Dos Claw on the back for the Wild Blast. It's scheduled for August, for 1,500 yen.

    ZW28 Bazootle: A new take on the Gannontoise. This Zoid is second to have a Machine Blast. The large side panels open up and the bazooka on the back flips forward for the Machine Blast. It's scheduled for August, for 3,500 yen.

    ZW29 Snipe Ptera: This brand new Pteranodon is the third Machine Blast Zoid. It's also the first pteranodon to actually walk on its wing claws, which really sets it apart from fliers prior. For its Machine Blast the mouth opens up revealing a gun within, and the crest rotates forward over the eyes, possibly acting as a sight. It's scheduled for September, for 3,500 yen.

    ZW30 Remodeling Part Set: Although late in the series, we'll finally be receiving some proper customize parts for the Zoids Wild line! This set looks to include items like long range cannons and guns as well as a chainsaw. This parts set is scheduled for September, for 2,500 yen.

    CoroCoro has announced a brand new Silver Peel limited! This time we have the Wild Liger Extreme Release Form, which features transparent armor. Unlike the Death Rex Purple Dragon Form, Wild Liger has clear parts for both the armor and the body. A post over on CoroCoro's website notes that more information will be available in the April 2019 issue, released on the 15th of this month. As usual, this will be a Japan resident raffle where consumers can send in properly peeled silver peel sheets for a chance to win.

    We've seen some updates on upcoming models recently, but the twitter community also noticed some new patents registered for the series! This gives us the names of a few upcoming, yet to be released Zoids. These Zoids include the: Cannon Bull, Snipe Ptera, Styrazor, Raptoria, Bazootle, and Beast Liger. With 10 episodes left of the series it'll be interesting to see what they all look like!

- Ankyrox

    The ZW21 Ankyrox has also been officially announced as a kit! You can view the official product images on the TakaraTomy Mall, along with the box art. There's a feature video by CoroCoro showing off the construction and Wild Blast of the Zoid. Another Wild Blast video was posted by TakaraTomy on Twitter.

- Wild Liger Sky Peace Edition

    Now that the Sky Peace single is out, we've been seeing posts for the Wild Liger Sky Peace Edition. This kit is a standard Wild Liger, packaged together with the single, any additional benefits, and the Sky Peace custom decals. These are all packaged together in a custom box. Don't be mistaken, the Liger itself is a standard Wild Liger.

- Death Rex Purple Dragon Form

    There are quite a few new posts for the Death Rex "Purple Dragon Form" which should be coming out in a month or so. Someone at TT had a little fun and made a mock up of some fake Death Rex box art. We've also got a few videos, with one featuring the walk and Wild Blast, another featuring a synchronized Wild Blast with the normal Death Rex, and a CoroCoro Review video. This review video shows a close up shot of the Death Rex, as well as a model kit battle against the normal Death Rex! Finally, have a couple of transformers group photos~

- Chrome Contest Prizes

    With TakaraTomy's "My Zoid Contest" closed you can now browse entries, as well as see the prizes! There are so many amazing customs in this contest. It's worth looking through them all.

    Part 2 of the Zoids Wild: Wild Blast Mini Collection has been announced! These are small figures with movable parts to form their wild blasts. It looks like Part 2 will include Gabrigator, Knuckle Kong, and Triceradogos. There's a tweet about it here~ They'll be available in gachas in Japan for 300 yen each. Usually you can find this type of thing on Ebay, Yahoo Japan, and Rakuten Global as well.

    Zoids Wild: King of Blast is officially released! With that, there's a lot of videos to go over leading up to it. We'll just link them to keep scrolling down. First is a tip video for quick attacks. Then there's a competition video, a 2 hour stream.

    Before the game released they also posted trailers of all 10 starting Zoids. Here they are: Death Rex, Fang Tiger, Gabrigator, Gannontoise, Gilraptor, Grachiosaurus, Knuckle Kong, Scorpear, Stegosage, Triceradogos, and Wild Liger. They've also been posting a few screenshots of the original color schemes in the game, though there are many more! These include Death Rex Origin, Fang Tiger Blaze, and Gabrigator Carion.

    Zoids Wild: Battle Card Hunter has started adding some new cards to the game! This includes several different cards. One Wild Rare, one Super Rare, one Rare Card, and one Normal card. We can probably expect similar patterns for future additions to the game~ Aside from Knuckle Kong, there was also a cute card released as a CoroCoro limited. You could scan in the QR code at any arcade machine to receive the special card.

- Battle Card Hunter: Hunting Gum!

    Battle Card Hunter will soon be doing some extra card releases alongside the game! Hunting Gum includes x1 pack of chewing gum and x1 card featuring new art, sold together for 100 yen. A box set of 20 packs can be purchased for 2,160 Yen, and will include all 15 varieties of cards. The cards you can collect are listed below. The set is already up for preorder on sites like amiami.

    x1 Super Rare (Wild Liger)
    x4 Rare (Gilraptor, Gabrigator, Knuckle Kong, Stegosage)
    x10 Normal (Kabtor, Kabtor Subspecies, Kuwaga, Kuwaga Subspecies, Raptor, Raptor Subspecies, Scorpear, Gannontoise, Triceradogos, and Grachiosaurus)

    We're down to just 10 episodes left for Zoids Wild. Its been an exciting ride! And we've missed a lot of the anime renders, so let's run through those. Gabrigator received a face lift, so here's a picture showing off his new colors. In the same episode we saw the Dimepulsar for the first time. We also now have images for Ankyrox and Pachykedos. Throughout the episodes the cast of Z Boys has been updated, as well as a new character featured, Youkan of the Freedom group. There's also an image for a man named Burger from a recent episode. We even get to see Child!Drake. Last but not least, they went back and showed us two missed Zoid Keys. Scorpear and Triceradogos.

Concept Art

    We've also gotten some new concept art! The most important of which is, of course, Burger's liquor bottle. But the runner ups are: A concept of Death Rex's Wild Blast. Not just one, but two! As well as Fang Tiger's. We also see an early concept of the Hunter Wolf, which looked quite different from how it does now!

- Zoids Wild Volume 2

    TT has posted the box art for the second DVD/Blu-ray release of Zoids Wild. The bonuses are more or less to the same tune as the first one. There are different bonuses for buying from different stores, like before.

    I've gone through and added temporary pages for all of the Zoids Wild model kits. These, like the others, include basic box information and assorted Zoid facts. All pages now also have the build videos embedded on the page, so that you don't have to look up the names, etc. to go find the instructionals.

    Kotobukiya has some major announcements coming up! An event has been announced, Stand River: 2nd Battle. This was an event that was featured once before, with participants bringing customs of HMM Zoids to be displayed either for the Empire or Republic side. The Zoids are individually scored and the team with the most points win. At this event, Kotobukiya has announced that they'll be showing off a prototype of their brand new HMM kit, and discussing several more minor announcements.

- HMM Zoid Reissues

    Kotobukiya is also pushing out several reissues & updates. The first batch includes the Liger Zero, Jager, Panzer, and Schneider (complete kits) all referred to as the "Marking Plus Version." These versions of the Liger and its various armors will include updated decal sheets based more off of the battle story. As such they won't include the anime-specific pilots.

    The Berserk Furher is also getting a repackage version, which means it'll also be getting a new box art. Like the Zero, it will not come with the anime-specific pilot, but a generic one. Accompanying it will be a reissue of the Sturm CAS (not the Tyrann, just the armor set.)

    The current Kotobukiya release calender looks like this. We've also updated our preorder table. It's... down there... somewhere in the abyss-

    April:
        - Liger Zero Marking Plus Ver. (6,300 Yen)

    May:
        - Liger Zero Jager Marking Plus Ver. (7,600 Yen)
        - Liger Zero Panzer Marking Plus Ver. (8,400 Yen)
        - Liger Zero Schneider Marking Plus Ver. (8,000 Yen)

    April:
        - Berserk Furher Repackage Ver. (8,800 Yen)
        - Sturm Unit for Berserk Furher (5,800 Yen)

    TakaraTomy has announced the January model kit lineup! It'll include the Fang Tiger and Spideath. Fang Tiger, a long awaited kit in the series has sold out in almost all typical online stores. AmiAmi, CD Japan, etc. This goes for a lot of other upcoming items, so we'll link to things wherever we can find them in the preorder table.

- January Model Kits

    Fang Tiger: The most notable Zoid of January is the Fang Tiger! This kit retails for 3,240 Yen, though most online stores will have it cheaper. You can see the walk cycle and Wild Blast gimmicks here. This cat is in high demand, so if you want it as quickly as possible, don't wait long to order.

    Spideath: After that we have the Spideath. Although this Zoid hasn't made an official media appearance (outside of silhouetted forms) we saw a bit of it in the Zoids Wild gameplay footage that was promptly pulled from the internet. Including its pilot, a girl who seems to work in tandem with Penne and the Scorpear.

    Although the colors aren't for everyone, this Zoid looks amazing. It has a bar in the back of the body where you can loop a string through, simulating a spider dropping down from its web. It looks great to see in action! This Zoid is selling for 1,296 Yen.

- February Zoid: Dimepulsar!  [Official]

    Dimepulsar has been officially announced! Although we saw a leak of this Zoid back in early November, this is the first time it has been officially recognized in any capacity. The Zoid is now available on the TakaraTomy mall where you can see the different features. The spines flip inwards and outwards to release its Wild Blast, a powerful electrical pulse. The upcoming Dilophos is also featured on its box art, in the background on the left side. Dimepulsar has no other Zoids in its wave, but will be released on February 23rd, for 3,240 yen.

- Wild Liger Guren Rerelease!

    While the Wild Liger Guren Ver. was originally released as a CoroCoro campaign, in a run of 100 kits, TakaraTomy has announced a public release version! It will be purchaseable at the 2019 World Hobby Fair (Winter), which is planned for January 19th. At this event it'll be on sale for only 3,240 Yen, though we don't know yet how wide of a release it's planned to be. This version of the Guren is a standard Wild Liger body. This means no chrome parts or speedy motors, but you could switch the parts with a typical Awakened Wild Liger for virtually the same results.

    A number of people have already started taking "preorders" on sites like Yahoo Japan. Often for around $100. Approach these sales with caution. While it's possible that they may be able to be fulfilled, we don't know yet how wide of a release this is. It's more than possible that these sellers won't be able to fulfill all of their orders. The kit is limited to 1 per person at the event, so make absolutely sure that the auction you're buying is for an already purchased item, NOT a pre-order.

- Death Rex Purple Dragon Form!

    A new variation of the Death Rex has been revealed as part of a silver-peel campaign. Like the original Guren, it will be limited to 100 kits, and is a standard Death Rex with transparent dark purple armor. This kit has only been advertised so far, but the silver peel will likely be in March's issue of CoroCoro Comic.
