Overview
After the first Death Saurers were deployed, the Republic was forced to reatreat to the central mountain range, where they created a new armed force. The Neptune was part of this new armed force, and was used for amphibious combat and support roles for larger zoids. Because the Neptune fought in the mountains, it was equiped with transparent "bullet proof" armor to make up for the limited moving space.
Battle Story
In ZAC 2043 the Zenebas Empire successfully captured the Helic Republic capital using the new Death Saurer. The Republic was forced to retreat to the central mountain range using a tunnel. With the Republic on the run, the Zenebas pursued. With the mountains being a narrow terrain, both forces reconstructed thier army with smaller and more mobile zoids.
Models
Orignal Japanese Release
- 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; however some details are pre-painted.
The kit was released in 1988, as part of the 24scale line. The kit is larger than a Power Up 1000, wind-up, simple to assemble, and possesses one pilot wearing an underwater suit. This Zoid, like his fellows Megatroops and Battlerover, has a big transluscent flat part covering the head and most of the body.
Zevle
The kit was released in Japan in 1994 with the Zevle line, almost identical to the original except for the color scheme, and the pilot that has to be painted and built. He was named Bolide.
Toy's Dream Project
The kit was re-issued completely identical to the original along with other vintage kits on the Toy's Dream Project line.
