Overview

The Leogator is, as its name implies, a lion and alligator-type Zoid, and is capable of changing between two forms to adapt to the tasks that are required of it. Along with the Dimetroptera and NAR Brachio Zilla, it is one of only three BLOX Zoids with two distinct forms to transform into. Its lion form is the faster, more agile form for quick assaults, and its alligator form is for amphibious and heavy-artillery operations.

Battle Story appearances

The Leogator was important during the first landing stages of the Republic's attempt to retake the Central Continent, as it was able to quickly change from an aquatic form (Alligator type) into a faster and more mobile attack form (Lion type). They served as the front line for a short period of time, proving initially effective, but it was hard for Leogator to use its special equipment during a firefight, and as a result most of the ground units were lost.

Their most notable contribution doing the war was on October, ZAC 2108 when a force of Leogators were sent to assault a Neo-Zenebas fortress. The fortress was situated along the Wilson River which led to the Republican capital, and held many Chimera BLOX Zoids. The Leogator's transforming capabilities surprised the Neo-Zenebas forces during the assault, and the fortress was eventually captured.

The Leogator in Lion mode, as seen in Fuzors

The Leogator appears in Fuzors episode 21 as a phantom Zoid attacking others in Blue City. It is piloted by a brainwashed Luke, with both him and the Zoid seemingly directed by Rebecca. It is sent on a rampage where it sets about trying to destroy all of Blue City's Zi fighters. Vareth's team eventually tries to stop him, but are themselves stopped by Blake. Blake too then tries to stop Luke, and while he does stop the Leogator, Rebecca intervenes and takes him away. This is the last the Legoator is seen in a major role.

  • Assembly required. (Snap-together, no glue needed. Scissors or X-acto knife recommended for trimming off excess plastic bits.)
  • The model's colours are moulded into the plastic, and it does not need any paint.

The Zoid was first released as a part of the Blox line. It is colored mostly blue and gray with a orange canopy and had a standard pilot figure. It was, along with the Dimetroptera, the first Zoid to be able to change forms.

New American Release - Z-Builders

The Zoid was released as a part of the Hasbro Z-Builders line, recolored to be anime-accurate and featuring a pearly shade of white—much like many of the Japanese releases for the Fuzors line featured metal flake plastic. Due to the the NAR line being canceled by Hasbro, many Leogator's where sent to England, given they were leftover stock.
