Zeroids-back side

Zeroids were made by Ideal .

 

They were introduced in 1967.

 

The first three robots came out in 1968 ;

 

1. Zintar - the silver explorer

 

2. Zerak- the blue destroyer

 

3. Zobor- the bronze transporter

 

In 1969 a team leader, Zogg ( the green leader ) was added to the line.

 

1970: The line expanded further with the introduction of new characters, including Zemo. That came in three colors.

 

The most popular is in red. Then the maybe even more rare turquoise and orange versions.

 

Zemo was just a combination of the first three Zeroids.

 

Zemo seems to have been a last bash of effort just before the end of the Zeroids line.

 

So Zemo seems to be the rarest of the Zeroids.

 

Zogg is pretty difficult to get at this point as it is.

 

I am not holding out for a Zemo.

 

It would be possible to take bits from the many broken Zeroids out there. And paint one up and kitbash one together.

 

It wouldn't be a legit Zemo. But it would be cool for the Zeroids on display shelf !

 

I am not in a place where I can do much custom work.

 

I would like to have a better Zintar than the one I have here.

 

I might paint Zobor's arms ? A nice silver touch up maybe ?

 

I really don't want to put the money out for an even better Zobor than this one. I would rather put the money toward a nicer Zintar.

 

Zobor just has a few faded spots on his arms.

 

Otherwise, it looks great.

 

So I am happy to have the basic four Zeroids in my life.

 

Completing these four has been a goal for a long time....
