1/72 HMM Dibison Thoma ver English Manual & Color Guide

From Kotobukiya comes the 1/72 Highend Master Model of the Dibison of Thoma from Zoids Guardian Force anime. When I first heard that Kotobukiya was releasing a Dibison version I was expecting to see the Dibison of Leena Toros from Zoids New Century. But either way I was happy that Kotobukiya released a Dibison for the Highend Master Model (HMM) Line. I always considered the HMM line to be the Epoch of the Zoids Hobby line because of the excellent design incorporated into the model kits released.

The 1/72 HMM Dibison Thoma ver is selling for $119.95 at Amazon, 7840 yen at HobbyLink Japan, 8330 yen at Hobby Search



Construction Manual & Color Guide was translated to English from the Japanese manual posted at Dalong's Gunpla & Model Kit Review site. For the meaning of the symbols found in the model kit's manual, kindly refer to this post.
