The Leostriker (レオストライカー) is a Lion-type Zoid from the fictional Zoids universe. One of over 200 species of biomechanical lifeforms that provide the basis for TOMY’s model kit, anime, and comic based Zoids franchise. It is capable of fusing with the Command Wolf to form the Command Striker.

Overview[]

The Leostriker was developed to counter the Chimera Blox Zoids.

It has two modes:

  • Ultimate Mode: A form intend for the role of close combat.  For added protection, most of the Zoid's armor has been moved to the front and an E-shield generator becomes available.  In exchange, however, the Leostriker's cannons become unusable.
  • Gunner Mode: Designed for long-range fire support, gunner mode makes use of all of the Leostriker's ranged weapons and it armor is more evenly spread out for the sake of balance.

It quickly replaced its predecessor, the Leoblaze, in service against the Chimera Blox Zoids.

Battle Story Appearances[]

Media Appearances[]

Anime[]

The Leostriker appears in the Zoids: Fuzors anime series. It is first seen in Episode 08: Blue Lightning Where Sigma is loaned the Zoid by Haldo to replace his destroyed Boldguard. Initially, when Sigma sees the Zoid under wraps, he mistakes it for a Leoblaze (which Mach Storm already had). However, he is impressed when it is unveiled to be a Leostriker. He uses this Zoid, coupled with luminescent ammunition to defeat the stealth Sabre Tiger that had been running rampant up till then. Later in the series, he fuses this Zoid with Helmut's Command Wolf, although this combination only had limited success in the series.

Trading Cards[]

The Leostriker was featured as part of the Zoids Scramble release of Zoids Trading Cards.

Video Game[]

The Leostiker has a very minor in Zoids VS III as the weapon for the Command Striker. The Leostriker is not available for play, and it is referred to as "Striker Set". Even though a Command Wolf-type Zoid can fuse with the Leostriker, the Command Wolf AC is said to be the primary Zoid that the Leostriker can fuse with.
