- RMZ-013 Shield Liger Bang Ver.!



 Zoids Official has posted a teaser for the upcoming RMZ-013 Shield Liger Bang Ver.! We were all surprised that Shield Liger wasn't at the front of production for the RMZ line, but the wait has been well worth it, with lots of features that stand out for this particular Shieldy. First, as the teaser implies, we finally have a Shield Liger that's going to come with an Energy Shield! Though companies have toyed with this notion before, reality often didn't meet expectations, with Kotobukiya, for example, lamenting that in reality a red-pink Energy Shield just looks like a bowl of fruit punch. This style, I think, goes a long way to meeting the expectations, with sweeping action lines instead of trying to make the shape entirely anime accurate. I only wish the included stand for it was clear!

 It also comes with the expected Shield Liger weaponry, but another neat fact is that the Missile Arms use a standard 3mm peg! This is a first for the Shieldy, and means that you can attach a variety of Zoid, MSG, etc. parts to the arms for easy customization. The tail uses the anime-specific tip but also comes with an optional beam gun that has a nice, compact look to it. The face and leg armor follows the trend of opening vents as well. Pre-orders are expected to open in August.


- RMZ-11 Geno Saurer Raven Special!



 The Geno Saurer Raven has received its official webpage, showing off concept art and a ton of its features. The kit is scheduled to release in February 2026 for 7,700 Yen. In this version of the kit, the gun barrel effects are gold and the particle effect is purple. The armor matches the anime colors, and the kit comes with a wire for the arm to recreate the famous launching wire arm from the show. As expected, it also comes with a Raven and Shadow figure.


- 25th Anniversary Popup Tour



 The popup tour has been going strong, longer than I think anybody expected! Fukuoka (January 31st ~ February 11th) featured Moonbay and her Gustav, including them as a cute little ramen stand. Saitama (February 19th ~ March 3rd) featured the Desert Arcobaleno Gang and Storm Sworder and a nice mid-day lunch scene. Niigata (March 14th ~ March 23rd) featured Irvine and his Command Wolf and a scene of him having lunch with the Helic Republic crew. Hiroshima (April 3rd ~ April 16th) features a lovely autumn scene with Raven, Rease, and their Organoids and Zoids, as well as the Geno Breaker along with a lunch scene. At this venue they've also launched a new diorama addition, featuring the Blade Liger being fired out of the Gravity Cannon! They still plan to hold venues at Hokkaido, with even more beyond that! With all the custom illustrations these tours have been an absolute delight.

 You can view a full list of goods on their website. A special mention goes out to these adorable Sieg and Shadow plushies.


- Zoids Chaotic Century 25th Anniversary!



 The 25th Anniversary is in full swing, with a popup tour currently ongoing! There's also a dedicated page for a special talk show coming on September 14th. The event will include live dubbing by the main cast, behind-the-scenes stories, and more. Attendees will receive an original tote bag and two Wixoss x Zoids collaboration cards. They also held a poll to see which episode people wanted to see shown at the talk show.

 Aside from the talk show there's also the popup tour. There's a huge list of goods being sold at the event shop and other displays at the venue including production art, character billboards, and more. In addition, the show started streaming (on Japanese streaming services) on the 15th of August. You can get a look at a lot of the event goods and such from this helpful Famitsu article. Pictures of the venue show off some amazing anime scene dioramas, including the Episode 33 scene of the Blade Liger Vs. Geno Saurer, the episode 34 defeat of the Death Saurer, the episode 41 battle between Schwarz's Iron Kong and Thomas' Dibison, and the triumphant episode 48 scene where the Lightning Saix finally throws off its armor!

- Zoids Chaotic Century 25th Anniversary!



 Zoids, the classic TV anime series is celebrating its 25th anniversary and it seems Takara Tomy has plans to do a variety of projects for it. We don't yet have images of any of it. However, this includes a collab with Wixoss, a card game in Japan that formerly collabed with Zoids Wild, which produced some rather cool art. (Fun fact, the same artist who worked on the Wild cards does a lot of Digimon stuff too, for those Digimon fans out there.)

 A special talk show is also planned for around September 14th, which we're looking forward to. There's also a pop-up tour which we don't know much about yet, but is planned for August 29th ~ September 18th. Paid streaming of the series is expected to begin this summer.

- New Anime Episodes!



 The next wave of Zoids Episodes have hit Youtube, but I'd really like to talk about Fuzors! Fans who saw the earlier western release of this series may remember the underwhelming feeling. Fuzors isn't to a lot of people's taste. However, when the series aired in Japan, it had tons of differences, from changes in lighting effects to a copious amount of redrawn frames. Surprisingly, the entirety of Episode 2 was remade to be much darker in aesthetics and theme, really upping the visual impact of this battle. I highly recommend watching at least this one, to see the one episode you might've missed when watching the Western Release!

- Zoids Chaotic Century Episode 8


- Zoids New Century /ZERO Episode 2


- Zoids Fuzors Episode 2


- Zoids Genesis Episode 2



- Zoids Exhibit!



 During May ~ June, a brand new Zoids exhibit will be open in Japan. We currently don't know much about the event, but the site has pages for info and goods that haven't been added in yet. Zoids has held some pretty impressive exhibits in the past, so we look forward to seeing what they bring to this one.

In commemoration of the Zoids 40th anniversary, a nationwide traveling exhibit will be held, looking back on the history of Zoids. In addition to popular kits from past generations and 3D exhibits such as a diorama corner, materials from past anime series will also be on display. This is a memorial event for all generations of fans, ranging from the Showa, Heisei, and Reiwa eras.

 * Future schedules will be updated on the Zoids Exhibit website as necessary.

 * The content of the event may be subject to change for certain reasons. Please be forewarned that the event contents are also subject to change.

(Event run time from May 26th ~ June 19th.)
