The Bigasauru (ビガザウロ), or Giant ZRK, is a Diplodocus Zoid released as part of the original “white head” Zoids in the early 80s. One of the first large Zoids, it was soon outclassed by more advanced models. Still, the lumbering ZRK was a formidable foe in its time.

RMZ-03, aka Protozoid, aka Elepantus. I tried to mimic the original box art. These early white head Zoids from the 80s are so charming.

Apparently AWS has been charging us an extra fee for using an outdated RDS platform version for almost a year now… whoops.

Infrastructure maintenance can be such a drag, especially for a defunct business I’m keeping up on the side for existing customers.
