    Yes all 3 of mine were noticeably looser than the dashers. nothing to worry about though as far as I can tell.

    Mine can have an ever so slight almost impossible to notice amount of wobble if I shake him. Nothing I'd cite as a criticism of the toy honestly.

    Thanks :)  What I meant to say/what I was getting at was that since the 'Shadow' versions of Jetter and Dasher were $40 more than their standard versions, I wonder how much this special deco will cost over its standard version?

    Just got my Tridasher but I'm having a hard time getting his two halves separated after combining. The release button on his butt is shallow and hard to press while pulling the two halves apart. Don't wanna break anything. Any tips?

    I prefer to use a pencil/pastel blending or smudging tool to manipulate my dia-nauts within the cockpits. You could fashion something similar out of a soft plastic sprue frame then use it as a tool to depress the button while you separate the halves. That way nothing gets scratched...
    I always keep this and a little pocket knife handy while I play so I can separate pieces without pulling.

    I keep a spudger with me when I'm playing with my Diaclone stuff, or when transforming third party transformers.

    Picture request: Can anybody post a group picture all of the Diaclone Reboot main releases (Big Powered, Diabattles, and Buffalo) with the TfCon 2019 Maketoys Delta Manus?

    Pardon the sh*t photo quality, and I only have two of the Diaclone reboot toys you asked about, but maybe this helps?

    Thanks for answering. =)
    Indeed, not a big issue, I was just checking if it was only my unit or something widespread.

    Trijetter and all his modular wing boosters adds enough play-ability where now he is one of my favorites. I thought he was kind "eh" looking at first, "Mrs. long torso." Then I start posing it and using the flight stand and I realized it was pretty special. Even the suspension arm is really fun to manipulate and get to the correct angle. He is like the Big powered of the Sky-verse, referring to Bp has a few detachable treads and cabs.

    Also the Crash Caliber II swords that come with Dasher are painted but Jetter's are not. I like having both kind.

    Robotkingdom has DA-51 for $106 + $19 shipping to the US. I'm on the fence on this one.

    Thought I was going to get the big evil waruder gigantor and get out but earlier in the week I ordered tri-dasher and now I have just ordered tri-jetter from amiami for the pretty reasonable price of £56 + postage. Super Excited!

    I was not bowled over by the raptor head set and my interest wained after this but seeing people’s in hand pics of tri-dasher and tri-jetter and the two mix-&-matched has piqued my interest once more.

    Incidentally, if anyone wants my raptor head set, it’s for sale £40 plus postage, UK only though
