Kotobukiya's "Highend Master Model" (officially abbreviated as HMM) series was a model line consisted of Zoids and Customize Part kits. It was a joint effort between Kotobukiya and Takara-Tomy. It features highly detailed, pose-able injection-model kits.
There was no unique backstory for the line; information recycled from previous medias about the series' Zoids were included in the instruction manuals.
Kotobukiya officially announced the end of Chapter One of the HMM line on December 14, 2013. The final Zoid was the Gojulas, sold in December of 2013. See HMM Chapter Two for later releases.
Overview
Although there were no actual factions when the HMM series started, the line would later reflect the traditional Helic Republic "RZ" and Guylos Empire "EZ" abbreviations seen in earlier releases. Beyond the standard color versions of Takara-Tomy models, Kotobukiya released unique, character-based Zoids from the Zoids Chaotic Century and Zoids New Century Zero animes which had previously been unavailable as standard kits. Kotobukiya also produced Zoid variants of their own design including Molga AA and Molga Carrier and the RAMAR Shield Liger.
Kotobukiya made Customize Parts for the HMM kits. These were recolored component pieces for specific Zoids. At first these were available only through special orders and contest prize give-aways, produced in limited numbers. Later, many of the Customize Parts would be mass-released.
In addition, there were HMM CAS. This line consisted of the three Liger Zero's different armor systems seen in the New Century anime. The base zoid is not included, only the CAS.
