Bio Volcano is a Raptor (Utahraptor)-type Zoid, one of over 200 species of biomechanical lifeforms depicted by TOMY's Zoids model, toy, and media franchise. The Bio Volcano is unique to the Zoids: Genesis anime and the related Genesis model line, and is one of the Bio Zoids used by the antagonists.
Overview[]
The Bio Volcano is a Genesis-line Zoid, that is featured heavily in the latter half of the Zoids Genesis anime. The Bio Volcano is heavily resistant to metal Zi and boasts a much larger arsenal of weaponry. The spikes and claws can act as blades, often effective enough to stab through enemy Zoids or to block Metal Zi attacks. The blade mounted on its tail can damage most conventional Zoids with a single swing. It also has the standard flame cannon housed in its mouth. However, unlike other Bio Zoids, Volcano's cannon seems to be capable of a higher level of destruction.
One of the most prominent weapons that the Bio Volcano possesses is the Bio Particle Cannon. Housed underneath a sheath of crystals, the Bio Particle Cannon is mounted on the Zoids chest, not in the mouth as with most other charged particle weaponry. The Volcano does not need to clamp down while firing the cannon, it is seen acting much like the Geno Breaker in Zoids: Guardian Force, in that it can fire while in the air.
The Volcano is unique among Bio Zoids, in that it does not possess any silver armor. Instead, the Zoid is covered in a crimson variant of Bio-Armor.
