Like many Blox Zoids, the Leoblaze is capable of rearranging its structure to combine with other Blox or Zoids. The Zoid's primary [[Fuzor Zoid|Fuzor]] partner is the Unenlagia; the two combine to form a completely new Zoid, the [[D.A. Lizards]]. Additionally, the pair can combine, along with the [[Mosasledge]] and [[Nightwise]], to form the [[Matrix Dragon]].

The Leoblaze was developed by the ZOITEC Corporation, and sold to the Helic Republic. First deployed in ZAC 2102, the Zoid was eagerly adopted by the devastated Helic armies, who were desperate for new weapons to face the Neo-Zenebas forces with. The Zoid proved to be effective against the smaller Neo-Zenebas Zoids like the [[Demantis]] and [[Guntiger]], as well as the Chimera Blox.

The Leoblaze comes on three frames, along with a frame of connector pegs (that is shared with several other Blox Zoids), four black Blox, one silver Blox, two canopies, eight rubber ring caps, a grey pilot, and label sheets. The Leoblaze is moulded in red and grey, with clear orange eyes and canopies. The actual shade of red can vary to some degree; some Leoblazes are more pink than red.

The Leoblaze’s construction is relatively simple and straightforward, like most Blox. The Zoid is not motorised, but it is very flexible, and can be manually posed. The rubber in the Leoblaze's joints tends to degrade over time, causing the Zoid to sag.

Note, this article also contains the Wolf-type Genius Wolf due to mold similarities. The Leoblaze is a Lion-type of Zoid from the fictional Zoids universe.

Overview

The Leoblaze is a Lion-type Zoid, designed by the ZOITEC Corporation for use by the Helic Republic in their counter-offensive against the Neo-Zenebas Empire.

The first Blox Zoid designed for the Helic Republic, and believed to be the first Blox-type Zoid to be put into mass production, the Leoblaze was designed to work with the Unenlagia. The two units support and complement each other, the Leoblaze being capable in close combat, while the Unenlagia provided long-ranged fire.

Like many Blox Zoids, the Leoblaze is capable of rearranging its structure to combine with other Blox or Zoids. The Zoid's primary Fuzor partner is the Unenlagia; the two combine to form a completely new Zoid, the D.A. Lizards. Additionally, the pair can combine, along with the Mosasledge and Nightwise, to form the Matrix Dragon.

Battle Story Appearances

The Leoblaze was developed by the ZOITEC Corporation, and sold to the Helic Republic. First deployed in ZAC 2102, the Zoid was eagerly adopted by the devastated Helic armies, who were desperate for new weapons to face the Neo-Zenebas forces with. The Zoid proved to be effective against the smaller Neo-Zenebas Zoids like the Demantis and Guntiger, as well as the Chimera Blox.

However, with the appearance of the Seismosaurus the bulk of the Helic army was destroyed, the majority of the Leoblaze amongst them. The design was later replaced with an advanced derivative, the Leostriker.

Media Appearances

Anime

Fuzors

The Leoblaze first appeared in Zoids: Fuzors, used by Mach Storm pilot Matt, who proved himself to be a more than capable pilot, even though he was too young to legally pilot a Zoid.

The Savage Hammer team formed a squad consisting of a Unenlagia, Mosasledge, and Nightwise. They intended to create the Matrix Dragon Fuzor, but required the Leoblaze owned by Mach Storm to complete the Zoid. Matt's Leoblaze was stolen and re-registered to Team Savage Hammer, and efforts by the characters to have it returned resulted in an unofficial battle between the two teams. During the battle, the pilots of the Matrix Dragon turned on Savage Hammer, using the Fuzor to fight both R.D.'s Liger Zero Phoenix and Blake's Buster Fury.

The Matrix Dragon was destroyed by the Energy Liger, Sharing it's fate with the Berserk Fury.
