After a brief silence from the initial release of SHM Rathalos and Nargacuga, the Flagship Wyvern from MHP3, Zinogre joins the lineup! With its obvious popularity which still going strong, Zinogre had one of the highest odds to show up and Tamashii Nation did so, SHM is scheduled for July release with 12000 Yen price tag. I think we can expect improvement compared to the Revoltech version which was released years ago but i would have anticipated something more from Bandai for this Lightning Wolf. So for 12000 Yen, we are getting the vanilla version of Zinogre in its normal state without any effect parts for lightning effect or rage state, at least Tamashi Nation could throw in an electric orb or two.
Zinogre was one of the more memorable MH Wyvern out there due to its cool design combined with unique mechanic in which Zinogre's supercharged rage form is one of its main selling point. I liked this guy's armor set but rarely able to use it since Zinogre's Blademaster set is not too compatible with Lancer setup. So unfortunately Bandai's take on the lightning wolf is rather a miss since it is unable to utilize the Wyvern's full potential. In any case while i think Gore Magala would be the next candidate, i would love to see Lagiacrus or Diablos coming next.
