    Yeah, thats not cool. But totally in line with current TT Batshit WTF pricing.

    At that price I'll be in for one.

    Official page for Bughead;
    ワルダーマシンシリーズ ワルダレイダー “バグヘッド”|ダイアクロン オフィシャルサイト|タカラトミー

    Also, through twitter I found this website in Korea which has listed the contents for the Tri-Dasher. It seems to be coming with an extra Dianaut, one of the new female moulds. Perhaps Takara is trying to even out the numbers lol.

    건담 전문샵 건담붐입니다. 일본에서 직수입해오는 반다이재팬 정품입니다.- 건담붐

    It's a bit mangled but I think it roughly translates to:
    Top half, bottom half & cockpit block.
    2 guns, 2 swords and some parts to hold them.
    1 Dianaut plus 1 bonus female Dianaut
    The usual instructions, leaflet and stickers.

    Sad to see that we won't be getting two cockpits like I was hoping, maybe they'll sell us an extra one for twenty quid! :/

    Interesting. It’s cool that the line is finally going to be distributed here, but how can they compete with AMZ’s prices. Koreans also aren’t into Diaclone in the slightest. I remember MP-10B and MP-11S shelfwarming here until they were 60% off. Made me sad. We will see if these do any better I guess.

    Looks like Takara-Tomy is getting around to adding bug head to the official site. It is now on the main page and lineup section product details are not there yet.

    Right. Well RK was a less expensive option for me, but YMMV. Seems like the US retailers I have checked have it listed for $45 (not including shipping or tax), and RK quoted me $46 complete. I will probably get it a couple of weeks earlier that way too.

    Quite confused by the contents, there are three types of gun parts? Then it says arm X 2 so are the arms separate? :s

    [Set Contents]
    -Boretto Core x1
    -Tri-dasher main figure A x1
    -Tri-dasher main figure B x1
    -Gun part A x2
    -Gun part B x2
    -Gun part C x2
    -Sword x2
    -Arm x2
    -Mount part x4
    -Diaclone member x1
    -Diaclone female member x1
    -Instruction paper x1
    -Mini pamphlet x1
    -Sticker x1

    Does Diaclone stuff often go on sale? The Tridasher looks great, but I'd rather get it for closer to $60 than $90.

    Not really, most of it sells out within a year, a few of the smaller sets have gone on sale like the figure packs and powered suits.
    Or you could just wait for someone to sell it, I've seen plenty of Diaclone collections bring sold recently.
