    Can confirm, his extra roads for Omega are just great. Real tight.

    The second pair of double guns are the main extras I'd want along with the big rifle. That said, I've already pre-ordered both sets.

    Them swiveling gun barrels look goofy. I just want a double of the stick guns and that big gun. Number one.

    I'm on the fence with this one. While I did enjoy the DNA upgrades for my Fort Max, the downright travesty that was the Abominus set still rings clearly in my mind. I might have to wait until they've been reviewed before I get mine.

    DNA Design never did an Abominus set before. You're probably thinking of Transform Dream Wave.

    I'm giving DNA another chance after their awful GUOP/UM kits.

    Loved their Devastator kit, I couldn't fault it.
    The Predaking kit on the other hand I found to be crap, bent parts, missing bonus items and the wings were just junk!
    Should I give DNA a chance to redeem themselves?
    I do want more cannons.

    Whoops! You are correct. Now I feel silly.

    Well, I guess I'm more on board with this set. Though the individually posing cannons look a teensy bit goofy.

    This is a neat set. The gun, the clear red visor, the new scorpion legs, those are all great. The rest is fine as is for me. I like Hasbro's shoulder cannons. As a matter of fact, if anyone is planning to get rid of the stock set, PM me, I'll buy them from you.

    Yeah, I have a thing with insect legs, I want some poseability out of them. I'm glad DNA stepped up.

    FWIW I did get in Nonnef's visor today. Haven't put it on yet, but to my eye it definitely shades more pink than red.

    TFSource has the two kits for a total of $85 + shipping. The figure was $160. The added investment is pretty reasonable for the amount of improvement it does to the figure.

    Still cheaper than all the stuff I had to buy for LG Fort Max to make him even barely an acceptable figure!

    lol...BBTS never gets anything early or on time. they are the slowest NA retailer around.

    the earliest i have seen it listed for release is at ToyDojo. they have it down as a dec release. but take that with a grain of salt we all know how 3p can be.

    Probably not till Spring. DNA Design is still way behind on their other announced kits. Their site says Jan/Feb 2021, but their estimates are typically never right and at a least a couple months after that. On top of that, add on slow boat shipping to the US.

    I think if I remember correctly, TCP was showing December on these... I've already got my pre-order in there. =)

    TFS might carry it. If not you will need to resort to someone like Baba

    Just pre-ordered DK-19! I need the big gun! The other stuff is just bonus I guess. :) 

    I don't expect to get it until ~March/April 2021. o_O
