From November 12th to November 29th, Zoids BCH will be holding a limited WR Rising Liger Shirogane card campaign, the color of Rising Liger piloted by Will of the Shining Lance Corps.! They also posted cards for the Rising Liger IB and Wild Liger Evil.

 CoroCoro has revealed the brand new rex-type Zoid, the Xenorex! Check out their blog for our first official peak at this Zoid. In the article, it's mentioned to be the new hero machine, implying that it'll be the protagonist of the new series, Zoids Wild Senki.

 Zoids Wild "Blast Unleashed", the international version of "King of Blast" for the Nintendo Switch released today! Some content creators were given special Battle Boxes, which included the game, 4 badges/pins, 15 special game cards that included button combos and information, a poster, and a set of stickers.

 Moritya over on twitter posted some teaser pages from the Zoids Wild 2 manga! Which ended this month, with the November 2020 issue of CoroCoro. It was a crazy ride, and the artwork used in the manga is amazing. The detail is fantastic, and quite expressive. We're look forward to seeing the final book print! The other Zoids Wild 2 books are available for purchase over on AmazonJP.

 We have two new images from Zoids Wild: Battle Card Hunter! The Drei Panther Blood and Sonic Bird Garnet. It seems that this time around, some of the original Zoids are getting custom decals, even if they didn't have them before. It adds character!

 The Zoids Wild model kit section has been updated to include all of the current CoroCoro 100s, including a nice cover photo for the Zero Grizis Dark Form, courtesy of spacehamsterZH~ These pages include information on how they were originally obtained and major rereleases along the way. There are still a few minor releases that need to be added (contest prizes) but it is mostly complete. Pages are being worked on for the various limited editions as well.

 With Wild Liger releasing any time now, Kotobukiya has posted a tweet showing off the Kotobukiya Direct exclusive benefit, the Z Cap "Freedom Blue" Version. The actual product looks like a much richer blue than the CG images, so it'll be cool to see them used on kits!

 Burning Liger has gotten its own commercial! This shows the zoid squaring off against some Cannon Bulls, and making use of its Core Drive Weapon.

- Commercial

 The ZWZ anime twitter posted concepts for the Imperial Army Immigration Ship, which includes the full ship view, the gardens, the city, etc. There's so much detail that went into this thing!

 Now that Stand River has concluded, we'll be covering all of the new product details that were published during the stream. It was an amazing event, and it was so cool to see everyone's customs! You can view the entire gallery here. Definitely give it a look!

 In the meantime, this post will be organized by the order that things were revealed during the event. If you missed the livestream, no worries, Kotobukiya is arranging to post videos to youtube soon! So don't mind the livestream link being broken.

- Zoids Key Charms!

 Just before Stand River, Kotobukiya announced their decision to release a set of Zoids Key Charms. The full set of metal charms consists of Wild Liger/Arashi, Gannontoise/Onigiri, Scorpear/Penne, Triceradogos/Gyoza, Hunter Wolf/Salt, and Spideath/Youkan. The set is scheduled for a January 2021 release as a Kotobukiya Direct Exclusive, for 2,000 yen each. It is not sold as a set! We have pre-order links down at the bottom of the page. Be sure to place your pre-orders by October 28th, as after that, they'll only be selling the remaining unsold stock before closing pre-orders.

- HMM Box Art Reveals

 Stand River also featured a reveal of several box arts, including the digital version for the HMM Wild Liger, the Pteras Bomber, and the Geno Breaker Repackage Ver., featuring a beautiful scene from Official Fan Book 2.

- HMM Revamps!

 Kotobukiya started off with a couple of new rerelease announcements. A new release of the HMM Panzer CAS, now in Marking Plus version, and a new Shadow Fox Marking Plus Version! So for all those who've been waiting for Fox, now's your chance!

- Wild Liger Guren Chrome Reveal!

 The final Wild Liger Guren was shown off in the event, complete with its chrome parts, clear caps, and clear purple eyes and Wild Blast parts. The camera's white balance caused most of the details to be washed out, so please excuse the lower detail.

- HMM Fangtiger Prototype Reveal!

 We got our first look at the Fangtiger model kit tonight! While we saw concept art earlier, I never would have guessed how many movable parts this Zoid has. It's really impressive. During the Wild Blast, the Panthera Armor folds out (like the moto kit) and the blades come forward. The blades are articulated so that they can take that 'spread out' pose that's used in the anime, and the pits of the blades (the lines) are also separate pieces! In other words, the blades can stretch slightly for the Wild Blast. The armor on the upper rear legs opens up to reveal some vents, a feature new and exclusive to the HMM verson of the kit.

 Like the HMM Wild Liger, the Fangtiger comes with a pilot figure. Bacon looks highly detailed. The reveal of Wild Liger's box art noted that the Zoids Wild kits will have their own designation, with Wild Liger being "W001".

- Rev Raptor Prototype Reveal!

 Fangtiger isn't the only prototype shown off. Rev Raptor's prototype was also revealed! There's a lot of detail crammed into this tiny kit, and it sports the same amount of articulation we've come to appreciate from Kotobukiya. The claws and blades also look quite sharp.

- HMM Customize Parts Pile Bunker Unit!

 The Rev Raptor is going to coincide with a release of a new HMM Customize Parts set, the Pile Bunker Unit! The unit has a movable pilebunker that can slide quite far forwards and backwards, as well as a mount that lets it tip up and down, and small movable panels on the top of the unit that can stand up or tuck back.

- HMM Raven Raptor!

 Kotobukiya also posted on Twitter that we'll be getting an HMM Raven Raptor! Many of you may recognize this as a Yuji Kaida variant. We've had several others appear in the HMM line, so this is an expected (and welcome) update. The Raven Raptor will be packaged with the Pile Bunker, just like the original motorized release.

- HMM Gilraptor 3D Model!

 Kotobukiya showed off the HMM Gilraptor's 3D Rig, in place of a prototype (as it's not quite ready yet). Although it's awesome to see, it's hard to see some of the details. So, for those who may have forgotten, here is the artwork for it that was posted at the last Stand River! It'll be full of beautiful details. You can see the X-style zig zags on the armor in the 3D model, a custom detail of the HMM.

- HMM Death Rex Reveal!

 As fans have pondered for many months, Kotobukiya has now announced an HMM Death Rex! The initial artwork looks amazing, and you can see that this kit is full of anime-accurate details. This includes the brown on the large Jaws and even the anime accurate sharp claws! It also looks like it'll have a rather intricate Uvula Drill, which, if the kit matches the artwork, can completely retract and also extend quite far past the jaws like in the show.

 The Death Rex Purple Dragon Form was also confirmed as a store exclusive, though there were no images shown for it during the event.

- HMM Liger Zero X!

 As Kotobukiya wrapped up their live build of the HMM Wild Liger, they dropped a final surprise reveal on us! The HMM Liger Zero X! This kit looks amazing, and it's one that people have been wanting for a long, long time. It was great to see a prototype, and it looks to really honor all of the X's design scheme.

 A new video has been released to show off the Burning Liger and its accompanying Core Drive Weapon. You can see a lot more articulation for the weapon than in earlier videos, and can also see different uses for the weapon and a build review for the Liger.

- Video

 Although we forgot to cover this during the last batch of news posts, Mantan Web has published an article announcing the start of a new Zoids Wild Youtube Series! This series will consist of monthly 3-minute videos, done in the anime style. It is scheduled to start airing this fall.

 The series will focus around the Burning Liger, a state-of-the-art Zoid developed by the Imperial Army to combat the Republic, which had gained an advantage. Local conflict and depleting energy sources, triggered by an explosion in the population has lead to an all-out war between the two forces, and Burning Liger serves as the answer! We already know the series will feature Burning Liger and Gilraptor LC, but we highly suspect other unique Zoids will be appearing~

 Zoids Wild BCH has released a new commercial, featuring some of the awesome custom-detailed Zoids in the game!

- Video

 Hasbro Pulse has posted their full Day 2 video for Hasbro PulseCon 2020! Those of you who weren't able to catch the livestream can now watch the full segment below. The video should be time stamped, but in case it doesn't work, the Zoids segment starts around 55 minutes in. You can also see that Liger Zero 3D opener!

- Video

- Sped Up Motors

 There was so much information to organize yesterday that I totally forgot to mention the motors! Hasbro representatives discussed motor improvements to the Hasbro kits, which will feature faster motors than their Japanese counterparts. For some Zoids, like Wild Liger, this is a significant difference. These changes contribute to the Battler mechanic that the line is boasting. In other words, line your Zoids up and let them duke it out!

 We've put together a comparison video from official footage. It's not the best comparison since the angle does not highlight the Awakened's speed compared to the standard Wild Liger, but pay attention to how fast the paws are sliding along. This shows the strength of the revamped motors.

- Wild Liger Speed Comparisons

 Well, Hasbro has concluded their online PulseCon 2020! Although the streams were removed shortly after they concluded, recaps will be coming soon. For those who couldn't be online to see it, it was mostly an official announcement of things we already knew about from leaks, now available as formal announcements. The series has been rebranded as Zoids Mega Battlers, with the slogan "Build Them To Battle!" There were a couple minor details also included in the stream, though, which we'll cover below!

 The panel opened with a CGI Liger Zero standing in front of the new Zoids logo. Our hosts discussed what the franchise had been prior to the Zoids Wild revival, with this Liger serving as an introduction to spark the memories of older fans. They then went on to discuss how the Wild kits will be handled: As 3 different classes, Beta, Mega, and Giga Class.

 These classes are based on a combination of size and part count, which reimagines the size classes set by Tomy. For example, Liger is a higher class than Gilraptor because of its part count (45 vs. 67), and Tryke is in the same class as Liger for the same reason (63 vs. 67). These classes are reflected by new price points, and will help buyers tell at a glance how complicated a kit may be. The kits will also have additional markings on the legs to help keep track of which legs go where. For most Zoids this doesn't matter, but it'll help on ones like Needle.

 As announced on CrunchyRoll earlier, the kits hit pre-orders on various websites earlier today. Several kits are available on Amazon, Entertainment Earth has all of them, and Hasbro Pulse has all of the kits available for pre-order at their intended retail price. All kit pre-orders are scheduled to release on February 9th, but fans have observed that other Hasbro Pulse products often show up in physical stores up to a month earlier than that.

- Prices

 Beta Class: $9.99
 - Pincers (Kuwaga)
 - Needle (Scorpear)
 - Rapterrix (Raptor)
 - Phobia (Spideath)

 Mega Class: $19.99
 - Ruin (Gilraptor)
 - Tanks (Gannontoise)

 Giga Class: $29.99
 - Liger (Wild Liger)
 - Alpha Shadow (Hunter Wolf)
 - Tryke (Triceradogos)

- Discussion

 First off, there's been a lot of discussion about what this means for Extra Large (XL) Zoids. Kits like Death Rex and Genospino. It's too early to say that these kits won't appear as a new class later, and it wouldn't make much sense to announce a class during the stream when it has no products publicly revealed yet. It's also possible they'll end up in the Giga Class, at a higher price point. Death Rex has almost the exact same number of parts as Wild Liger.

 There's also been some discussion regarding the changes to the molds. New product photos revealed quite a few with the Tryke. We discussed these changes with other Zoids in an earlier post, complete with comparison photos. While some have observed that Needle looks like all of its points have been rounded down, this is actualy an issue with the TakaraTomy product photos being sharpened for Cool Factor. The Tomy Scorpear has the same blunted points.

 All figures will have the following changes: Eyes pre-assembled and attached to the head, two-tone body colors, and additional pilot figures based on the anime pilots. The official product still shows stats for the Beta Class Zoids, and even includes a Rider Role. Boxes have been reimagined, and each kit will come with a playmat for the Battler aspect.

 Triceradogos Changes:
 Our newest updated Zoid Design! The Tryke reimagines how Triceradogos works. Instead of the huge spike coming out of its forehead, the entire frill shield moves forward, with the two horns attached to the top. There's been mixed reception about this change, but personally, I find it more fitting of the Triceratops stereotypes. I'll categorize the changes below.

 Blue: The horns are now attached to the frill itself.

 Purple: The entire frill comes forward, instead of the spike jutting out.

 Green: To accommodate this change, the spike has been redesigned from the ground up to look like a mechanicam rail.

 Red: Additional mechanical parts have been aded behind the head to flesh out that space, now that the rail sits higher than the spike. A result of its smaller size.

- Final Word

 It's only fitting that Hasbro PulseCon is The Iron Bible's 777th documented News Post. May it be symbol of good luck, and I look forward to seeing more news from Hasbro!

 We know Hasbro has made some announcements recently regarding the Zoids Wild Series, but the franchise is also getting a 20 minute panel at Hasbro's PulseCon. Which, due to current limitations, is being streamed live on youtube at 10:50 ET on the 26th. If you're interested in other Hasbro brands, the con will begin on the 25th at 11 AM ET. You can view a live countdown timer here. We'll keep you posted on any announcements made at the panel!

 A month before the Wild Liger is scheduled for release, Kotobukiya has already announced a Kotobukiya Direct exclusive of the kit! The Wild Liger Guren, based on the CoroCoro 100 Limited of the motorized kit, is scheduled to release in December for 10,800 yen. Because it's a Koto Exclusive, we won't be seeing any discounted prices from AmiAmi, HLJ, etc. who won't be getting the kit. You'll need to order through another service like White Rabbit Express or From Japan to get this elusive beauty.

 A blog article from LABO goes over some specifics about the kit. The Liger will have a purple Wild Blast flame, translucent purple Zoid Key, and a custom painted Arashi based on his runaway state in the Zoids Wild anime. The kit will also include clear purple eyes. Although there are not yet photos on the blog, the Guren will come with gold chrome claws, fangs, and mane claws. These can be mixed with the basic Wild Liger to create the "Awakened Wild Liger"!

 An article posted by Crunchy Roll discusses a recent Hasbro announcement regarding the Zoids franchise. The article introduced Tanks (Gannontoise) and Ruin (Gilraptor), two "Mega Battler" packs (model kits) that'll be released by Hasbro. These kits are listed at a retail price of $19.99, which is almost $10 less than their Japanese counterparts (retail $30), with both kits being released on February 9th, 2021. Kits are recommended for ages 8 and up.

 As we already knew, Hasbro kits will include figures of the pilot characters that they have in the show, making all Hasbro kits distinct from the Japanese release. They will also have two-toned bodies instead of black, and a few will have mold changes. They'll be available at most major retailers, and also available for pre-order on HasbroPulse.com starting September 26th at 5:00 PM ET. More information will be revealed in the Zoids panel at Pulse Con, on September 26th, 10:50am ET.

 Aside from toy news, the article also announces that the remaining Zoids Wild (Hasbro dub) episodes will be released on Netflix on October 1st. All in all, lots of exciting news!

 The new Liger-type Zoid thats been teased lately is finally up on the TakaraTomy Mall. Welcome the Burning Liger, scheduled to release October 24th for 2,500 Yen! This brand new kit marks a change in the design scheme of Zoids Wild Zoids. Not only does it include a cockpit, but it also introduces a new gimmick: The Core Drive System. This weapon type draws power directly from the core, and in the model kit's case, will mean a fully motorized weapon set.

 These weapons can be mixed and matched, and will function on any other Zoid that includes the CDS design scheme. The ZW45 Burning Liger will not come with the Impact Gatling, which will instead be sold separately or in a set.

 Burning Liger was also shown off in CoroCoro Comic, where additional Core Drive weapons were previewed (not shown on the online article). The whole kit, including box and instructions, was shown off on TakaraTomy's "3 Big Boys Toys Special Program" stream! Takara Tomy also posted some fresh out of the box photos of the kit.

- Burning Liger Information

Stats:	Weapons:	Equipment:
Length: 9.2 m  Height: 3.9 m  Width: 3.0 m  Weight: 42.0 t  Max Speed: 215 km/h	2-Barrelled Beam Gun  Blow Claw  Hide Missile Pods  Laser Fangs  Retractable Guidance Missiles  Sawed Off Shotgun  Small Retractable Missiles  Whip Tail	Dual Sensor  Guardian Shell  Mane Protector  Power Axis  Power Cylinder  Z-O Visor

 A medium-sized Zoid, and the first lion species of the Imperial Army. It was developed to compete with the Republic's new Zoids. It has a lightly armored frame, large claws, and is equipped with several small weapons. It's also equipped with the Z-O Visor, which allows the pilot to draw out the power of the Zoid at their own timing, and its strong limbs allows it to fight nimbly in combat. The Blow Claw has been significantly modified to give it a stronger impact against enemy Zoids. The Core Drive System (CDS) was developed to convert the energy of the core to use as a power source for the weapons, making the Burning Liger the first Zoid to use the CDS in the Imperial Army. It's possible to equip Core Drive Weapons (CDW), which are compatible with the CDS using the rail on the back.

 Immediately following ZW45 is the ZW46 Core Drive Weapon "Impact Gatling". This weapon is scheduled for release on October 24th for 1,000 yen. This is the first CDS (Core Drive System) weapon, and will be compatible with any CDS Zoid going forward. When equipped, it links up with the motor, and spins the gatling barrels as the Zoid stomps along. You can view its official page here.

- Impact Gatling Information

Weapon Parts:

Conversion Engine  Core Energy Magazine  Laser Canal Barrels  Power Baring  Purge Trigger  Radiation Fin  Stabilizer Axis

 A system developed by the Imperial Army that converts a Zoid's core energy into power for its weapons. Zoids can be equipped with a variety of Core Drive Weapons (CDW) by using the common, standardized back rail.

 An automatic weapon developed exclusively as a weapon for the Burning Liger, the first machine of the Imperial Army. It's capable of converting energy from the core inside of a conversion engine, and then firing it as ion-convergent bullets.

 By equipping the Burning Liger with this weapon's excellent, instantaneous power, the CDW can be used to further increase its combat power. It fires ion-convergent rounds that use converted core energy, making powerful artillery possible from a medium range. The Burning Liger can withstand the weight of the Impact Gatling because of the power cylinders that reinforce its legs.
