Zero Metal Defence Capsule

Not so much a movie but a comic series created in Hong Kong on the premise that a meteor shower rained down and almost destroys civilization in 2037 AD. Surviving scientists discover a unique matter from the meteor fragments which have anti-gravity characteristics and named it "Zero Metal". A highly mobilized armour unit was created from "Zero Metal" and used to police the new Hong Kong, now called "Gang Dao".

This particular "Zero Metal Defence Capsule" unit is the Dingo Patrol, tasked with patrolling the perimeter of Gang Dao and maintaining security. Another character created by the same company, DaJoint was Urika Gagarin.

Now, on with the pictures - first, Dingo Patrol operator in his basic garb

Body Armour

Looks like some alien caterpillar

Leg armour - way cool. It opens up for you to slip the feet inside and snaps shut

That's a really nice figure. The armour on them is really well designed - it fits in well with the whole Maschinen Krieger style too :)

I was tempted with the ZDMC back when they came out, but I was obsessed with Michael Lau and Jason Siu at the time so couldn't afford them as well :P
