I dig it! I hadn't thought of the idea of all the limbs having 'sub-modes' and that all the pieces could rearrange into a Mother/Drop Ship... that'd be really badass. But I agree, with the worm/pod launchers. If DA-95 can get working elevators, Waruder can get pod launchers darn it! I have no idea how they'd pull off the cohesive engineering... but to a degree, being completely modular should give the designers/engineers more wiggle room perhaps? I suppose an alternative could be some kind of crazy 'super armor' for Gigantor, but I still have a hard time seeing that. I like the idea of how the Hanger Raiders for the Ripper/Vajra 'bulk up' the base suits. Gigantor does have those ports on the bottom of his feet, and those peg points on the sides of the 'calves'... but I also have a hard time seeing that particular toy being even bulkier.
I’m REALLY going to regret buying this back in a few months, but I need the money. Item has been opened and inspected. Not combined with anything or put together. $190 + $60 shipping. I only have access to EMS shipping here in korea. If you don’t want the box I can ship for $30. If you live in asia shipping can be cheaper I think. buyer pays 5% for PayPal fees or can use friends and family with no fee.
Not really. Here’s a list of everything at RRP (plus 10% tax) Works out to be around USD14.5K at current exchange rates. I do need a fact check on the DA-26 price coz I can’t seem to find a reliable source online.
Argoversaulter details are up. 8800yen for June https://takaratomymall.jp/shop/g/g4904810909941/ "The Voyager Unit is a function expansion unit on the back equipped with two hydrojets and six tactical missiles that boast powerful propulsion!

Contents: "Main body (1), bullet module (1), shoulder attachment parts (2), side unit (right) (1), side unit (left) (1), joint part A (2), joint part B (2) , Central unit (1), Foot parts (2), Weapon A (2), Weapon B (2), Weapon C (2), Diaclone member Ver.2.0 (1), Seal (1), Pamphlet (1) ), instruction manual (1)" No sign of the Dia guardian upgrade, I had been wondering if that announcement was a mistake.
I have a ripper after many, many years the new vesaulters look like budget friendly options for good guys. Hope the waruders get an equivalent sometime soon...
So I have a pretty weird question about an old release. I received a DA-15 today that was listed as sealed by a Yahoo Auctions seller with 100% positive feedback. It seems like the top flap does not have any tape whatsoever though. Does anyone recall if all DA-15s came like that? I checked a few other closed auctions on Yahoo Japan and it seems to be the case but I just wanted to be sure. What threw me off is that the DA-18 I got off Mandarake had tape on both the top and bottom flap.
I’m not normally into water based mechs, but this might be my favorite of the versaulters due to the headsculpt, bulletcore design, and colorscheme
I am loving this! I wonder if they’d consider doing a yellow version down the road, switching the current blue/yellow placement.. That bullet module would look glorious, and look like Thunderbird 4 to boot lol!
