About ZOIDS
Marking its 40th anniversary in 2023, The ZOIDS series is the first Japanese media franchise created by TOMY Company, Ltd. that was first unveiled in 1983 as a plastic model figure.
ZOIDS in essence are giant robots aka “mechas” using dinosaurs and animals as motives. The name ZOIDS is a portmanteau of Zoic (animal-like) and Android (a mobile robot with a human form), and the figures are released as “real moving kits,” where the assembled figures are able to move in a realistic manner by being powered by a motor.
ZOIDS WILD was released in 2018 as the first new iteration of ZOIDS since 2006.
