    If memory serves alot of the zoids were reissued not too long ago.

    Will look into it. Zoids were some of the best looking toys of the 80s, bar none.

    Hasbro released a few around 2001-2002, not with great success. These could probably still be found quite cheaply on eBay UK

    Beyond that, collecting older ones may get messy. Volume of parts makes collecting loose ones a bit tricky.

    Sealed examples of some older ones can also fetch pretty good money.

    And for the avanced collectors, there are a lot of color variations that never made it outside of Japan, as well as quite few exclusive molds. These can go $$$$.

    yeah i remember they released the zoids again but in tacky gold and silver. didnt like the look of them. really after the 80's zoid. i Had about 9 small ones and a medium size one called shield tiger. Was really cool with hidden guns and fold out shields.
