TOMY released 11 waves of one-piece miniature Zoids, called Gachapons (or Gashapons), that were sold in vending machines across Japan. Each Zoid was only about one inch tall and came in a capsule to protect it in the vending process. The Trinity Liger, Geno Hydra, and Quad Liger were also featured in different waves, although none of them actually saw a full model release in any line.
