ZA Brand - HMM: EZ-049 Berserk Fuhrer

Bootleg ZOIDS ZA brand has announced its next upcoming release victim! EZ-049 Berserk Fuhrer! According to the information, it will be the same scale as the original HMM Zoids but have more details. The box size is 40 x 32 x 18cm and approx 2kg 😱. I do not know the price at the moment. Expect to be cheaper compare to Kotobukiya HMM but the shipping fee will be high due to the box size and weight.

HMM ZOIDS - ZA Death Stinger (Enlarge/Bootleg Ver.) Unboxing

The ZA EZ-036 Death Stinger finally hitting the Asia market. One of the modelers, Pinky UC Gunpla modeler, gotten one for herself and posted the comparison/unboxing photos which you can check out below. This is so insane that it is almost the same size as the perfect grade Gunpla and selling less than USD100.00. 🙌

HMM ZOIDS - ZA Death Stinger Bootleg Enlarge Version

For those who don't know about ZA brand, they are the well-known HMM Zoids bootleg maker from China. Recently, they are making quite an attention introducing and showcasing enlarge version of Death Stinger. Not only they increase twice the size, they even made improvements on the details, comes with a water decal, and selling the price of around US$8x.xx once it hit the market.

This is a big slap to Kotobukiya face. I cannot imagine what comes next. Gojulas? 

Non-Original / Bootleg - Pretty Armor

While we hardly see Kotobukiya plastic kits ended up with many bootleg (Zoids affected) release, the Frame Arms Girl, Gigantic Arms and M.S.G weapons are the latest and currently available for pre-order (around US$35.00) and pending release with different sets in June from several online shops in Hong Kong and China. Please take note the bootleg version name is called ‘Pretty Armor’ and not officially released by Kotobukiya.

From the looks, there are some modifications to the design and mix with M.S.G weapon parts if I’m not mistaken. The quality of the plastic kits is unknown. As usual, do not support bootleg and advise buying at your own risk. It also quite interesting to see if Kotobukiya going to lawyer up soon against the copycat in China since they have official factory and shops there. Anyway, enjoy the photos and some kits assemble quite interesting check out for ideas.
