Overview Edit

Twinhorn, was released first released during the late OJR line, and was one of the last regular wind up Zoids before the Power Up 1000 line. Designed more for close combat against other Zoids as part of shock troops than for artillery use, the Twinhorn was also used by bodyguards.

Battle StoryEdit

Media appearances Edit

ModelsEdit

Original Japanese Release Edit

The kit is simple, sharing the same wind-up motors as most Zoids of its time. The Zoid shares its legs with several other earlier OJR Zoids, such as Zatton and Geruder (Zunder and Zaton in the OER line). Twinhorn's main color scheme consists of red-orange and black, with green canopy and blue-green caps, like several other OJR Zenebas Zoids.

The Zoid is estimated to have been released as of 1986 with production continuing until 1989.

Several chrome versions have been released as contest prizes. One example of a contest prize distributed in limited numbers by TOMY was an OJR version of the Zoid, but in all gold chrome. This prize was distributed when the Zoid was still in production. it is currently unknown how many were actually made.

The Zoid has been said to have been released in Europe as a part of the OER as a part of leftover stock from the OJR line. This is unconfirmed.

Twin Horn was re-issued as part of the Zoids Graphics line in 2008. It is almost identical to the OJR version and comes packaged with a Zoids Graphics monthly comic.

Like its OJR counterpart, a similar gold chrome release was done of the new Zoids Graphics re-issued Twinhorn. It came in a unique, metallic, black and gold box which had Rebirth Century logos on it. The box depicted the gold chrome Twin Horn in a similar way Takara-Tomy produced there box art for the Rebirth Century line. It is unknown how many were actualy made or if it was even approved by Takara-Tomy as an "official" Zoid.

A Dark Twinhorn was released to advertise Takara-Tomy's Dark Army. The Zoid was recolored mostly black with some green parts and had a green canopy and green caps. All of the green parts and caps glow in the dark. The zoid was sold at Wonderfest in 2008 and was packaged along side with the Dark Iguan. There were no other changes to the model aside from packaging and a Guylos sticker sheet which also glowed in the dark.
