Why it matters
Two anime-colored Zoids kits going back up for preorder at once points to steady demand for the show's mecha designs rather than any new anime tie-in, and the preorder window is the only chance to get either at the listed price.

The Command Wolf Irvine kit keeps its jet-black body and reproduces the red shoulder armor and the fangs and claws in anime colors. Its joint caps switch to the design included with the Redler, and the head cockpit clear parts now come in clear orange plus a colorless clear runner for custom painting. A new decal sheet carries emblems and caution marks, and the back equipment swaps between a Long Range Rifle and a 50mm Anti-Zoid Dual Beam Cannon Mount.
The D-Style Blade Liger adds a runner so the fangs match the show, pairs a newly renewed molding color scheme with a bonus colorless clear canopy, and can sit in posed stances. Its E-Shield generator deploys on the head, the laser blade swaps to a deployed state, and a single unpainted Van Flyheight figure is included. It fits the Kotobukiya M.S.G New Flying Base for airborne displays.
