The Lanstag Break was the upgraded form of Mii's Lanstag. Its front antlers were replaced with tougher and larger versions. Though these antlers have unknown offensive capabilities, they could take a blow from the Bio Volcano and survive intact.

Numerous Lanstag have been shown in the show. Lanstags were present in Kida-Han's army while Zuuri managed to salvage numerous Lanstag. Zuuri's Lanstag are all under the command of Ra Kan.

Piloted by Re Mii. Souta, the ex-pilot of the Bio Kentro, will later pilot a Lanstag with the yellow parts replaced by silvery green and the lance substituted by one of the beast slayer blades of Bio Kentro.
