    And a suit goes into Big Powered's chest or externally on his back which can be used as the front.

    Keep in mind the only one of these that has an KO, MFT or otherwise, is Diabattles. But in general there's a lot of interconnected play between the suits and the larger mechs. Both in direct combination and in transporting via their canisters.

    No idea what I'm looking at. Anyways wish MFT would do some of the bigger sets too. There is plenty that would be awesome besides just Power Suits

    Still wondering what happened to the larger humanoid SAS mech they teased.

    Many have speculated and I also now believe the "VP" series is MFT's version of Big Powered. It is HEAVILY modified but VP-01 appears to be the lower legs and feet, VP-02 appears to be the Powered Suit that can go inside the chest and I'm guessing VP-03 is going to be the Torso and Thighs but will have to wait and see. Other than sharing a lot of design characteristics and possible cross-compatibility it's shaping up to look totally different than Big Powered.

    If you wan't Big Powered it might be wise to just track one down, that's what I did last month and it was totally worth the $270 I paid. That purchase has convinced me to buy more official stuff as well.

    The VP series being a backdoor Big Powered makes a fair bit of sense. And I got the vague feeling that 03 is the hips 'bot. 02 made me think of that little cockpit that plugs into 03 but separates for Big Powered mode with how the torso looks.

    Well in that case, I wonder if they'll do a whole pack, or just release individually

    MFT Da-28s and CG-01 coast guard have mini figures which are significantly better than the earlier release figures. My only gripe was a sprue mark on an elbow ball joint of my cg-01 put a stress fracture on shoulder/socket. Under the canopies of both where the torso plate folds there was also sprue marks left over. Other than that, they are pretty solid plastic-wise and the paint applications on DA-28s are awesome.
    Compared to the mini figures of my DA-01 (diabattleV2) and DA-08(cosmoV2)... pfft well, one of them came pre-gimped to the point where it looks like the legs were melted on. To be fair one of these diabattles was the doubleKO MBD version. If you buy a KO diabattle you already messed up, because you should of bought two so you can form the 6 armed centaur mech.

    VP02 is based on a maneuver suit, Would be cool to see it form the torso and 03, the hips & thighs.

    Will a maneuver suit fit into Big Powered's chest garage? I don't have any of those yet but I was thinking they might fit.

    A delta style maneuver barely can squeeze inside with the door a slight gap. Keep in mind a delta maneuver has the head turrets so a dia-naut cannot operate during integrate & hanger mode. I am uncertain if alpha and beta are the same way, but I will let you know very soon.

    I guess I was using this as a metric to measure the possible integration of VP-02 into their "Big Powered" but they've completely remolded everything else so there's no reason they couldn't have made the storage spot in the chest large enough to comfortably fit a maneuver suit.

    Alpha maneuver didn't fit inside, but beta fit inside alright. Well, alpha does fit inside with the head folded inside the chest cavity and no mini operator.
    If the VS line isn't full of big powered components I won't be too upset. t looks like we will get a couple powered vehicle replacements and that's good enough for me. I assume KOing these things is profitable for MFT because the are full of big plans for the future. TT can't even release official stuff quickly enough to keep me satisfied, although I do have a few things preordered. Not a lot of the MFT original releases have excited me, not too into the SWAT style.
    I ordered some 4mm plastic rod so I can make my own connector pieces. I want to maybe get an an SLA printer so I can make my own sliding adapters and weapon packs.
