Review by JoshB
Leoblaze is one of the basic Zoids Z-Builders sets. Z-Builders (known as
Zoids Blox in Japan) is a modular construction system that lets you combine
parts with other Z-Builders and Zoids model kits. Parts come on a sprue and
have to be clipped off like any other basic model kit. The difference here
is that Z-Builders uses a core set of cubes to build each creation.
Each Z-Builder comes with a cockpit with pilot and sticker sheets. However,
the instructions do not give you any guide to sticker placement. You have to
go by the box to figure it out. Each kit also comes with extra connector pieces
to help build the Matrix Dragon.
4 specific Z-Builders sets combine to create the Matrix Dragon. You will need:
Unfortunately, the instructions for creating the Matrix Dragon are not included
in any of the boxes. you have to visit the Hasbro web site to get them:

It takes a lot of time to clip each part from the sprue, assemble, and apply
the decals. The completed figure is not bad, but not worth all the effort to
put together. The blox system is neat, and you can make some cool combinations,
but they don't feel like they connect securely due to the rubber connection
points.
