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!

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.

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.

I only have one zoid and this is it. Gun Sniper is really cool and fun to play with. The educational value depends on who is building it, if an 8-year old built it, it would be really educational. It is also very durable, if you drop it on the ground only one of its missle pods drops off. I'm looking forward to more cool zoids.

If you love the show zoids on cartoon network because of their look I recomend this zoid. If you love the show because of their abilities,you'd better do a liitle more thinking before you get this zoid. Sure it has ion-boosters and missile pods, three guns to put on its hands or stomach, and a sniper rifle tail, this zoid is a walking paperweight.(if you could even say it walks,mine goes about an inch and trips over itself. If you have any advice about how to fix this problem, please write a review with your advice in it.) This zoid is piloted by Lena Toros in the show. Anyway, this zoid doesn't even look like the Gunsniper from the show. Unless you have some way to get your hand on a WILD WEASEL UNIT don't get this zoid. I really dont like this zoid but it does look pretty sweet with the wild weasel unit on it.(you can get a wild weasel unit off of e-bay, but it will be the japanese version.)I hope this was helpful. You may want to do a liitle bit of thinking before you buy this zoid.

The gun sniper is used by Rinon Tauros a.k.a Leena Tauros. It's a sniper type Zoid That can shatter through the most powerful shields by shooting three pin point accurate shots in the same spot. It took me about a half an hour to build, because I ended up having to unbuild it because I put the motor in wrong. It has a lot of guns on it's wrist to be exact there are two tri cannon gatling guns on the wrists,and a single beam cannon on it's belly. It has a sniper rifle built into it's tail,which is it's most powerful weapon. If you are looking forward to getting the agile, powerful and magnificent Zoid you see used by Leena you are really barking up the wrong tree. The only way you are gonna get that much artillery is by getting the active shield unit, and wild weasel Unit off of e-Bay. It is extremely durable, by Zoid standards, I once dropped it going up some concrete stairs and the only damage was an ion booster that fell off. It is a great Zoid for any beginner, because it has great looks and many features, not to mention spring loaded action boosters... I would recommend to any Zoid collector beginner, or advanced a great and powerful Zoid, an excellent must have for anyone. Get this Zoid and you will not be displeased

This is the only zoid I own and I couldn't have chosen one better. Its only drawbacks were its over simple design and its wobbly legs. It has awesome rocket pod thingys and a tail mounted gun (along with wrist guns too). It is the best wind up toy I have ever seen too. i thought the wind-up part would be cheap, but it rocks! If you're a zoids beginner looking for a kick-butt zoid buy this! (or the shadow fox)

Ok, this is a cool zoid. I highly recomend this one for beginners. This was the first zoid I ever put together. If the first one I put together was the Elephander I don't think I would still like zoids today. It is easy to put together, it's cheap, and it looks cool. I'm broke right now from the Dibison, but as soon as I get allowance I will look into the Wild Weasle Unit upgrade. I know you are all probably looking forward to getting the Wild Weasle Unit, all those guns and cool stuff to make your Gun Sniper stronger and look like it does in Zoids New Century/Zero (the third series television show based on zoids revolving around the Blitz Team and appears on Cartoon Network) but anyway, the Gunsniper is cool, but I just can't get mine to walk! I don't know if it's all GS's or just mine, but he just won't walk! I think it's because I accedently bent the plastic thing sticking out of its foot keeping it balanced.

It is an easy toy to break, and when u build it u can easly break it. for a normal zoid it is very short,(about 4 inches(see what i mean!)). but if you are obsesed with Lena from the blitz team on the tv show (like my sister is) get it.

This is the truth!!

The Gun Sniper rocks!It may be small but I don't mined.This is a raptor type zoid that comes with to double barrel guns,a sniper rifle,and a sortof booster in the back(that's how it's used by Naomi at least.To make it like Leena's you'll need the wild weasl unit,gattling guns,2 misle pods,and probably the rain forest parts in varies areas(plus Leena's gun sniper is upgraded from the Dibision).Naomi on the other hand,you pretty much need it red.This zoid is used by the republic and it is the type of blue and gray you see above.Gun Snipers are unqiue zoids since you can basically put any part on it.If you watch the afernoon series the place to go is the sniper shop in Romeo city.The gun sniper can penitrate a shield with 3 shoots out of it's tail and it specializes in long range combat.They arn't an easy target and they're fairly strong.You should get it if you're a beginner or if you havn't got it get it.
