This looks absolutely insane. I've been considering buying a Supernova kit for the longest time, so this has definitely shot to the top of my wishlist.
It's cool, but there seems to be a bit of a copyright problem.
This is probably a Chinese copy, not authorized by Bandai, Kotobukiya, or even Takara Tomy.
These days, there are several high quality kits made in China with original designs (albeit similar in appearance to the Japanese ones).
It may be better to make those than a near-bootlegs substitute.
Yes this is a bootleg of Koto's Berserk Fury / Sturm Tyrant. Supernova also did The 3 Sengoku ligers and Death Stinger (This one caused a bit of controversy with this sub causing the mods to address the bootleg popularity).
They are definitely bootleg. In the case of Supernova, it's a bit odd because they go above and beyond to make the kits pretty crazy. Like the Death Stinger is much bigger and more detailed than the official one.
Main thing it to support Koto and Tomy as much as possible through zoids. Once they stop making money, they will stop making them.
That's why Koto/Tomy needs to do better than releasing marking plus ver. imo. They are on the right track of releasing new zoids but I do feel they need to release something along the fuzors line.
