You have probably seen the animated series, if so, you would know more about zoids than I would. I have heard of this toy from friends before and I think I may have seen an episode or two but that's it. It was only yesterday that I came face to face and was formally introduced to a zoid named Hayate Liger. As it is, my guy is an avid fan of Zoids (Spiderman, Transformers, X-men, etc) and with my consent (I had to say yes) bought one which he painstakingly assembled last night. Everytime I tell him the toy looks the same to me before he assembled the parts and now, he would give me that hurt puppy look hihi so silly and cute. Well anyway, I posted the before and after pic so you can decide if it looks different at all.
