    I think this is an amazing concept, a DB V2, Vers omni Compatible figure, I wonder if Takara has thought of this beyond what DA-60 can do? Id love a new V2, the current is amazing however the hip issue is a major annoyance for me personally.

    Won’t deny it, that’s pretty fantastic and I would definitely buy it. The parts here would be really useful.
    I’d really like to see some hips like that some time in the future that attach to the bullet core upper bodies. Being able to use diabattles’ lower legs would be excellent

    Packing up my precious Diaclone for moving purposes and I came across these. Can't remember now if they are actually Diaclone parts.
    I think they're from the magazine exclusive powered suit equipment packs?

    Guys, i need an advice...
    I might have the chance to spend some days into the woods next week, and i was thinking to do some photo shooting of my diaclone sets into the wild.
    The scenario will be a place with stones covered in moss and...uh...lichens? Not sure Google translator helps with plants names.
    Btw, it will look like an alien jungle.

    The problem is, i don't have so much space left in my bag, so, except for my two powered suits type a/b sets and my only type c/d set (they have the perfect colors) i have to choose just a couple of my larger sets, but idk which one will fit better in a jungle environment, so i need your opinion about which of these sets has the better colors:

    Option #1
    -Cosmo Maneuver (da-06) + alpha spartan (da-36) + the powered suit from strike buffalo (da-37)

    Option #2
    -Diabattles Moon Base (da-01ex)

    Option #3 (and i will have to leave some clothes at home to get the space for this one)
    -Big Powered (da-14) + Shadow Jetter (da-46)

    Option #4
    Just the Shadow Jetter

    Also, i'll bring some mini action dinos from the jurassic world blind bags, some neca kaijus (mutavore from pacific rim, shin godzilla, atomic godzilla from kom) and a couple of revoltech monsters from the Monster Hunter series (tigrex and zinogre).
    I mean, an alien jungle is supposed to have some alien fauna, am i right? :D 

    So... What should i bring? I can't choose :banghead:

    And you're still underestimating it!:D 
    You can use diabattles legs as feet by connecting them to buffalo's feet pegs... 4E82850B-EB98-415C-92A9-FB69EE9F6BCD.jpeg

    Hello fellow Diaclone collectors! I need some help.

    My Tridigger came with the wrong type of screw in the front portion of the right foot. I’m looking for either a resource for finding a matching screw or someone who has a junker Tridigger I could buy for parts.

    Here’s a photo of the correct screw (left) and the incorrect screw (right). You can see there’s a significant difference.

    Additionally, I’m curious to know if anyone else has this issue with their Tridigger.

    Thanks! :)

    That’s why I’m confused, the arms attach to the frame that plugs into the legs, but I can’t figure out how to add the core from there. The parts that hold the versriser suit in place work, but the only way I can get them to fit puts the shoulders too low. If I had a 3mm to 2mm adapter I could get it all to fit or if I had something that pegged it all together from the back, but I don’t have either. I feel like I’m missing something.

    do you have it pegged together from the back?

    The bullet and the arms are on the same plane and track using two 4mm pegs that come with the powered suits and some other sets.

    Also, I think I'm going to be obsessed with trying to make my own WHEELED WARRIORS!

    Jetter looks like a satisfyingly chunky “SPACE PLANE” that 8-year-old me would have gone nuts over.
