Tomy’s Zoids on Sale in 1982

The Zoids toyline (find at Amazon.com*) never has been a big deal in the US, but that hasn’t stopped retailers from trying to sell us the toys for quite some time now. Need proof? Well, there’s always this 1982 newspaper ad. That means it has been at least 35 years of attempts to sell Zoids to the US market. Cool robots, but something just doesn’t connect with Americans when it comes to Zoids.
