Zero rules!
By Darth Tres
After a long hiatus, Zoids are back in American stores! These are a "must have" for children and adults alike- model kits that you assemble yourself, then you wind them up (or in this case, put in batteries and turn it on) and watch them do their thing! Assembly for most is quite easy, they snap together and parts are held in place with rubber plugs. They can also be disassembed easily.

Liger Zero is an impressive larger sized Zoid. There are add-on body sets available in Japan which completely change the appearance of Zero, but they have not made it to the US yet. Zero has a nice color scheme and is a very fast walker when powered up. His jaw opens and closes as he walks. Also many of the body panels are hinged and positionable to make him look more streamlined or more aggressive.

Japan has been enjoying reissues of Zoids for over a year, now finally we get them too!

Buy this Zoid (if you can find one)!
By A Customer
The Liger Zero is easily one of the best Zoids in the new lineup. It's a guaranteed must-have for the long-time Zoid builder and first-timer alike.

The Upside:- Very cool design, nice color scheme with the white armor components contrasting well with the black body.- Great looking and fast walking action that looks very realistic due to the multiple articulations.- Good molding and paint quality (at least on my example, I've heard that painting was badly done in some kits).

The Downside:- Few weapons (just the tail-mounted laser and twin ventral cannons - unless you count jaws and claws, of course) and Hasbro hasn't released the Jager, Schneider, and Panzer armor kits yet - you could look for the original Japanese armor kits at an online store though. This is the only real sore point of the kit for me but since the Zero is SUPPOSED to be the base unit and add-on parts are available, if hard-to-find, I decided not to knock the rating down because of it.- Feet and legs are tedious to build, but the results are well worth it.

All in all, this is definitely a Zoid to buy if you or your kids are even the least bit interested in the toys or anime series. But you better grab one (or better yet four) now `cause I know for a fact that they are flying off the shelves!

Liger Zero
By A Customer
The Ligar Zero is a remarkable zoid. A zoid is a mechanoid fighting system that exist in a far away galaxy on Planet Zi. The ligar zero is, in my opinion the best zoid ever. It has 3 conversion units called the Jagar, Schnieder, and Panzer which have been released in Japan and are to be released some time this year in America. The liger zero jagar is equipped with 2 ion boosters, fins, and air vents that make it awesome at acceleration. The Schnieder is equipped with 7 blades that can slice a zoid in half. It is the perfect zoid for close-range combat. The Panzer is equipped with several missle arsenals and 2 hybrid cannons which make it the perfect zoid for shooting down flying zoids like the Stormsorter or Raynos. This zoid has some educational value. It is perfect for kids who love cartoons and hands-on activities. The are very fun to play with but be careful. I accidentally snapped off the wing of my Command Wolf's double barrel cannon which is the same material used to make the zoids. I suggest that if you like the zoids action figures to watch the show. The first show which is on at 6:30 AM eastern timewith a boy named Van and his zoid, the shield ligar. The second show is on at 5:00 PM eastern time on Toonami. It is about a teen named Bit Cloud and his zoid the ligar zero.

"Smile you son of a....."
By John Cook
If you're a horror or just plain film fan you have to own this awesome piece of memorabilia. Not so much a "toy" as a model it captures the thrilling ending of the classic, JAWS perfectly even coming with a little "Quint" that you can fit into JAW's gaping maw. (How cute, he even comes apart at the waist revealing bloody innards, awwww!) The only gripe I have (call me crusty like good 'ol Quint I suppose) is that this is so much a sculpture and not a toy. I would've liked to be able to close JAW's mouth or be able to remove him from the playset like their King Kong is able to. These are minor gripes though it is still cool as all hell. Suggestion: Make a JAWS 2 figure with a removeable JAWS shark or better yet make an 18" JAWS with a mini-Roy Schieder! Bottom line: Own this great Mcfarlane, you movie maniacs!!

Finally! A Jaws collectible!
By Daniel V. Reilly
Fans looking to get a small slice of their favorite movie will be in heaven with the Jaws Box Set. McFarlane Toys does their usual top-notch job on the sculpting and detailing, and the value-for-money is great. The set includes the doomed ship Orca, complete with Jaws himself (itself?), rising up onto the deck to consume the Skipper, Quint. Quint is the capper to a great toy: he is able to split into two pieces, and fits perfectly into Bruce's mouth....... The details on this toy are PHENOMENAL!! From the perfectly sculpted waves to the look on Quint's face, McFarlane Toys really pulled out all the stops. They even perfectly re-created the interior of the Orca, which most people would probably never even notice.

I brought this set to work with me, to show a friend, and everyone that passed my desk had to stop and play with it. Everybody wanted to have one of their own......

Note to McFarlane toys: MORE!!!!!

Beautiful detail, great price
By A Customer
I'm not a collector of McFarlane movie models, but since JAWS is one of my favorite films I couldn't resist this beautifully crafted set piece. If you're a McFarlane fan or a JAWS fan or know someone who is, do not pass this item up. I just wish that it had not taken a quarter of century for a decent Jaws "toy" to come along. Although this is more of a static model than a toy, the fact that the figure of Quint can be inserted in the shark's mouth, stood on deck, or even "bitten" in half, gives this model some minor degree of playability. I still, however, would like to see someone come out with a fully playable action figure line for Jaws... perhaps for the 30th Anniversary of the film? (Hint, hint!)

Now the negatives for this item, which are very minor. The figure of Quint is great, but where's Chief Martin Brody? While Quint was being eaten in this scene, Brody had a front row seat and the model seems incomplete without him. But I won't remove a star in my overall rating because of this.

What's really preventing this from being a five-star review is the Orca's "rigging" which present the only "assembly required" aspect of this item. The guy wires supporting the mast are made of common string. One end of the six strings are glued to the top of the mast, and plastic plugs are glued to the other end of the string. You have to insert these tiny plugs into their tiny fittings on the deck. Unfortunately, these plugs can easily pull away from the string since they are only glued to the string.

After you've done this, the central guy wires, which attach to the deck of the flying bridge, look rather limp because the fore and aft guy wires are more taunt and are what are really stabilizing the mast. So, I decided to make my own rigging out of very thin and pliable metal wire which I found at the hardware store. No need for those plastic plugs anymore. After removing the string from the top of the mast, I wrapped the six wires around the mast and crimped the end other end of the wire though the deck fittings. It actually looks better this way because the the wire is thinner than the string and is therefore proportional to the size of the model. Besides, in the movie, if you look closely, the Orca's guy wire's were metallic anyway.

So despite the fact I had to make my own improvements to the model, and the fact there should have been a Chief Brody figure included, I still give this item four-stars for the exceptional craftsmanship and the unbelievably reasonable price.

Super-Solid Laptop for Anyone on a Budget
By Peter Sachs
To put it simply, Apple's new iBook is an engineering marvel. The design is sleek and elegant, yet the case can stand up to a good beating. The iBook comes with an awesome set of features--pretty much everything you might need is already part of the package, including FireWire, CD-RW drive, and 10/100 Ethernet. Despite having a relatively small screen (12.1" diagonal) compared to some PC laptops, it still supports a full 1024 x 768 resolution at millions of colors. The screen is very bright, and the battery, while not quite the 5-hour powerhouse that Apple advertises, still manages about three hours doing normal operations. The 500-MHz G3 processor is spritely and gets things done quickly, although it doesn't have quite enough power to do a large amount of movie editing or graphics work.

A few drawbacks are as follows:The internal CD burner is only 8x at this time, which is markedly slower than the 16x and 20x external FireWire burners available now.

The iBook comes with only 128 mb of RAM, which is just barely enough for most things. I would strongly encourage upgrading to at least 256 mb total, as RAM is very inexpensive these days.

The video memory in the iBook is only 8 mb, with a weak graphics controller as compared to what goes into the G4 desktops. As such, the iBook is only mediocre at gaming.

The 10GB hard drive is already pre-loaded with almost 5GB of software and sample mp3's, so I would highly recommend upgrading to at least a 20 GB drive.

In conclusion, the iBook is a solid purchase for anyone who wants many of the features of a desktop machine, but in a portable package. The drawbacks listed above are mostly forgiveable, as sacrifices had to be made somewhere to make this such a reasonably-priced machine. The new iBook no longer has a built-in carrying handle, but Apple has managed to trim quite a bit of weight and bulk, making it a joy to use on a daily basis.

A great laptop! *****
By Michael A. Brown
Apple has reinvented the iBook as one of the best laptops. Not just Mac, but in all of the PC world. The second generation of this version has a faster processor, a larger hard drive, and still looks great. People are drawn to look at this machine from the time you pull it from it's case. I would certainly recommend a RAM upgrade. 128 is okay, but it is just barely getting by. I'd suggest at least doubling that. Since the iBook only has one RAM slot, you may want to do that on ordering. However, you can get quality chips for less from other sources, and since it's a fairly simple install you can do it yourself in a few minutes.

I use my iBook as a webmaster with Macromedia Dreamweaver and Fireworks, Adobe Photoshop, and iMovie 2. My digital camera mounts as an external hard drive. My digital video camera links through the Firewire port with no fuss at all.

Overall, I would highly recommend the iBook.

The perfect Reporter's or student's notebook.
By Steven Dennis
Almost all of the SPECs on this baby are just what you want in a laptop -- fast processor, just over 1 inch thick case, less than 5 pounds, 5-hour battery. In person, you won't believe how small and truly portable this machine is. It's great for reporters on the go such as myself, or for students in a dorm room. It has all the right ports, and appears to be made with quality in mind.The screen is exceptionally bright as well.

My only two complaints: 1) The low-end model skimps horribly on the memory (for shame, Apple! They could have added another 64 MB). You can upgrade the memory easy enough aftermarket, but that's an annoyance (128MB is practically required for OS X, BTW).

2) The screen is a fairly miserly 12.1 inches, although it is active-matrix and high-resolution. Now, keep in mind that this contributes to the low-cost, svelte form factor and long battery life, but I wouldn't mine having a 13-14 inch screen when I'm squinting at text all day. I generally solve this problem by upping the size of the fonts, but still, this screen is rather small. If you buy one of the higher-end models, say the one with the DVD drive, you may find that watching a DVD on this small screen is not exactly the cinematic dream that you find on the amazing Titanium Powerbook G4 (with its glorious ultrawide 15.3" screen.)Enjoy!
