Hahaha! I was doing pretty good for myself getting only 1 shadow VMax. I'll add another one to my order at RK though lol. That's only if the new reveal is indeed a standalone trailer add-on though. I'll only get 2 powered convoys I think though. Private lessons have dried up in the last 8 months, and the triple-dippin' just isn't possible at all anymore! Sadly. I'm still planning on getting 3 Raidens though. I'm sure I'll sell stuff to you in the future though for sure hahaha. 4 Gigantors might have been a tad overzealous lol
Well, considering that the image specifically mentions that "It can also be equipped on DA-65 Battle Convoy V-MAX", wouldn't that imply that the add on set is for the shadow version, as otherwise they would list both?
I'm thinking it is color coordinated with Shadow, which it will be "pictured with", but will also fit on V and look okay... But, we'll know soon.
I'm really confused by the wording on the image. It says strengthening vehicle which implies that it's just an upgrade and no version of battle convoy is included in this set. But then it says DA-65 is also compatible implying that there either is a different robot included or that it's weirdly specific to the shadow version. I hope that it's a full powered convoy set with a retooled figure myself.
Given the figure's colorscheme, it's possible that the armor for the Shadow version leans more heavily into the figures red coloring, and thus could reasonably suit the original colors to an extent (though I hope not)
I was looking more at the blue, to see if it was implied to be for a 'Powered Convoy'. If that is the plan, I hope the DA-79 supply lasts long enough. The Convoy would mean less if he is encased in 'Powered Convoy' armor. Would laugh my butt off if they did include a new Convoy and it was white and they went with a classic Ultra Magnus scheme.
Still trying to figure out my preferred configuration for my trailer. I want to maximize what I can fit in there while allowing the trailer to close without having to remove anything. Found two new ways to store a command buggy and the suits from the da-70 set.
Oh shoot... spoke too soon. The bases for the bikes stop the trailer from closing so make sure you don’t put the bikes where I have them
Anyone still have the trailer pods for sale? One of mine from TCP was crushed in the middle of their pallet and they said they were getting a replacement, but I’m getting a little concerned…
Sorry to hear. So it was packed as your outgoing order but on a pallet and got crushed? That's terrible luck. So it's been a while? Have they said if they have stock for your replacement or are they waiting for it to be imported? Not sure if you're looking for US retailers but RobotKingdom has them - Takaratomy Mall Exclusive DIACLONE EXTRA POD GRANDER EXPANSION UNIT. Available Now!
Picked up another DA-22 : Powered System Maneuver Beta to add to my forces. It is always fun to just revisit the classics...
I love the detail on this one with the opening canopy. The color is super eye catching too. Safety First!! I need to get yellow vers riser 3
This was a great Maneuver Suit. Optional claw and drill hand attachments make this suit as useful in maintenance, destruction, and construction, as it does in combat. And I agree the Beta's increased visibility cockpit is a great variance from most the others.
It might mean less, but at the same time we know this is a support vehicle rather than a trailer, so you will have something that will work well for display even if you choose not to have it attached all the time (my excuse to avoid buying a second DA-79)
Still available here if you need one: https://www.etoysjapan.com/index.ph...ufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1
My last order had two trailers and only one shipped because the other was the last one and was crushed. They said they would be getting a replacement from TT. I even questioned if I should get it elsewhere while other US places still had them in stock and they reassured me I would get it. Now as I see all of the US based places are out of stock, I’m getting nervous. I trust TCP, but what it TT simply doesn’t have them to replace it with? So I decided I’d rather have one more than I wanted than one less… Thanks for the links. I’ll probably just suck it up and pay more as an insurance policy.
Don't worry, we have more on the way. Unfortunately they are just taking a while due to the port congestion.
