Overview

The Hayate Liger is a Lion (or Liger) type Zoid, unique to the Zoids: Genesis fictional universe. The lion ( Panthera leo) is a member of the family Felidae and one of four Big cats in the Genus Panthera. The liger, is a hybrid cross between a male Lion and a female Tiger (i

The Hayate Liger is unique in that it is not a unique Zoid, nor is it a Fuzor or CAS form. Instead, it is a direct but temporary evolution of the Murasame Liger. The (from 村雨 which may mean "Village Rain" is a type of Zoid a race of mechanical lifeforms from the fictional Zoids universe In extreme situations, the Murasame's body transforms, with the Hayate ‘growing out’ or "evolt" of the Murasame Liger, even though the Hayate form can only be maintained for a few minutes.

The Hayate Liger is optimised for high speed and performance. Its twin Hayate boosters can propel it to 420 km/h, making it one of the fastest land-based Zoids ever created. The Zoid also has a very high acceleration, but it can only maintain this speed for short periods of time.

The Zoid's body is covered in various blades; although its two main weapons are the Murasame Blade and Murasame Divider, which are mounted on the sides of the forelegs. Composed of Metal Zi, these blades can slice through almost anything. The Zoid does not carry any ranged weaponry; one of the few weaknesses of the design.

Battle Story

Because the Hayate Liger is so powerful yet so unstable, it was sealed away in the core of the Murasame Liger by the ancient civilization that created it. All records of the Hayate Liger were lost, with nobody realising that it was hidden inside the Murasame's body until it was rediscovered.

In the battle story, it is not clear if the Hayate Liger is a specific, unique Zoid or just a Zoid type.

Media appearances

Anime

The Hayate Liger is unique to the Zoids: Genesis anime. is the fifth anime installment of the Zoids franchise It tells the story of Ruuji Familon a young boy who finds a Liger-type Zoid during a salvage mission

The Hayate Liger first emerged from the Murasame Liger during a battle against Gyrog's Bio-Tricera. Ruuji's anger and fear for his friends’ safety caused the Murasame Liger to spontaneously evolve into the Hayate, destroying the Bio Tricera and seemingly killing its pilot. Later, Ruuji learned to control this evolution, allowing the Murasame Liger to evolve to the Hayate form at will.

Models

All Hayate Liger model kits were released as part of the Genesis model line, or in relation to the Zoids: Genesis anime series

Hayate Liger

The Hayate Liger is the fifteenth model in the Genesis line. The Hayate Liger comes with a pre-assembled motorized body and legs, as well as six frames of parts, two soft plastic swords, a transparent canopy cover, two transparent eyepieces, sixteen rubber caps, a small blue pilot figure, a label sheet and a display stand. The pre-assembled body is identical to the one used by the Murasame Liger, only recoloured. The (from 村雨 which may mean "Village Rain" is a type of Zoid a race of mechanical lifeforms from the fictional Zoids universe The Hayate Liger is moulded in black, white, red and gold with blue caps.

Unlike other Zoids, the Hayate Liger's legs and body are already assembled and held together with screws; in essence the Zoid is already half-built. The remaining assembly is relatively easy for a Zoid of its size. The Hayate Liger uses a pair of "AAA" sized batteries for motion. Once activated, the Zoid walks forwards with its jaws chomping.

Like the Murasame Liger, the Hayate Liger suffered from poor quality control, sharing the same problems with the pre-built body.

The Hayate was released in mid 2005. The initial run of the Zoid also included a limited gold version of the CP-08 Pile Bunker. The Zoid suffered from poor sales, possibly related to its pre-built nature.

Several other versions of the Hayate Liger have been produced. They are detailed below.
