5.0 out of 5 stars The Unseen Killer the Gun Sniper, April 12, 2002

This review is from: Zoids - Gun Sniper Action Figure Model Kit Series #030 (Toy)

I have the Gun Sniper and it is one of the best zoids I own and I own a lot of zoids such as the Shadow Fox(Japanese), Liger 0, Shield Liger, Raynos, Cannon Tortois, Spinosnapper, War Shark, Command Wolf, Dibison, ptera striker a.k.a. pteris, rev raptor(I dont recommend this zoid because it has no weapons and cant use many other zoid's weapons), and the Zaber Fang. I hope to get the Blade Liger. Any way back to the Gun Sniper. The Gun Sniper is a basic model so its cheap. Being a basic model the Gun Sniper is easy to build and like almost every zoid it is very durable. So if your not sure if you should get a zoid or which one get this one because its the best of the basic models and it is great for beginners like I once was. Now for the arrmaments of the Gun Sniper. It is equipped with 2 gattling guns mounted on its hands and some sort of laser gun under its belly. It also has two back mounted missle pods and to top it all off its tail is one gigantic gun used to shoot down other zoids from long distances. Oh and I forgot to mention it is a windup zoid with a key to wind it with. Once it has been winded up its arms and legs move well atleast the arms move my legs dont move to well he walks crooked. Plus as an added bonus you can buy the customized parts for this zoid when Hasbro makes them or buy them off Ebay or something. These parts include wild weasel units, active shield unit, and all direction missle unit. Now for the show info on the show before Toonami on Cartoon Network a Gun Sniper is piloted by Leena a member of the Blitz Team who has a Gun Sniper with lots of missle pods and machine guns and she then blows off all her ammo. A Gun Sniper is also piloted by Naomi Fluegal(dont know how to spell that)who pilots a red gunsniper(wish they made a red one)and actually uses the sniping tail. The Gun Sniper may not be any Ultimate X(if you don't know what that is it is a zoid with an intergrated organoid so that it learns after every battle making it stronger; to get a better understanding of an intergrated organoidwatch the zoids at 5 o'clock in the moring(thats central time for me)and you'll learn a little bit more) but its definately a good zoid and will provide hours of fun. I would get this zoid if I were you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Rocks, November 8, 2001

This Zoid rocks. It is a velociraptor with guns and missile launchers attached to it. The three guns are removable, so you can put them aside when they sort of get in the way. The educational value on this toy is based upon the building of it. My guess is that it's a bit confusing for younger children, but it should be a breeze if you're over eight years old. Also, the durability is amazing. It doesn't break into a million pieces if you accidentally drop it, unlike Legos. This Zoid is one of the greatest and I'm lookin' forward to more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gun Sniper is the coolest of the basic Zoids., October 10, 2001

Lots of great features makes this the best of the small Zoids. It has three removable weapons which can be fitted on eight places making it customized. Also includes two preassembled back mounted rocket launchers with opening doors and jet thrusters that remain hidden untill you push a button. The windup motor has a removable key so it is not intrusive when looking at the model, and snaps onto the back for safe keeping when not in use. The front legs move up and down while it walks providing lots of annimation. The only bad thing is that the small size of the motor means it does not go far on a winding.
Easy snap together assembly means no paint or glue required, and the decals are self-stick. A hobby knife would be helpful, but not required.
