What's the best way to ship a Diaclone power suit? Night insertion by heavy air transport of course This image shows the most dangerous part of the delivery. The great weight of the power suits makes balancing the transport more difficult for the pilot. "Standard procedure for a power suit fast-rope exit from a heavy air transport is to go down in pairs on either side to help balance out the payload." - Colonel Harn Niyao, Diaclone Special Tactics Manual Vol. III
I am weak. I've recently ordered a Diabattles v2 alpha plus and DA-05 two pack of mech suits. I need two more now to fill out my Battle Buffalo.
Hmmm. I’m pretty sure the original Powered Suit chambers won’t fit on Buffalo because of the side couplers to attach to Diabattles. The new chambers don’t have them and are the ones advertised with it. Those Powered Suits start coming out this month.
I saw pictures elsewhere of a Playmates Enterprise set that works well with Diaclone so I had to track one down: There's a bridge: A cantina: And even an office to review applicants' CVs to joining the Marine contingent: There's also a brig, but as I don't have any Waruderoids, I didn't both taking a picture. Obviously, the thing is clearly a Star Trek ship (as the Enterprise is unmistakably iconic), but the innards are surprisingly neutral so it works well as a diorama/playset for Dianauts.
@Bête Noire That is amazing! I love the job application I saw someone on instagram or twitter using this Votoms transport. Even though it's 1/48 it works pretty well and the styling, especially the cab, works well with Diaclones I think. And it has SO many wheels. "Big Powered GV is down! Recovery procedures are in effect. We must save DA-14. Call in the Super Heavy Ground Recovery Transport."
The full post I borrowed the pic from is a treat: Toys and Tomfoolery: The Post in which Alexx Insists you Buy Dianauts
I think they might be from the new Jurassic park flick. Edit: anyone into hexa gear stuff? How well would the powered suits fit with this? 壽屋 2018年11月發售: 模型 HEXA GEAR 1/24 Bandit Wheel 4,800Yen | Taghobby.com

Anyone have any of the old matchbox big rig playsets? I feel like those would look really cool with the dianauts and power suits
Amazon Japan EDIT: I just tried and they must have shut off US shipping after I ordered. Keep trying every few days. That happened to me before with some MP Transformers.
Hey that's my pic! Like others have said, they're from the Jurassic World line. I got mine off of Walmart.com. Much better prices than the Amazon listing. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Matchbox-Jurassic-World-Dino-Transporters-Armored-Raptor-Hauler/483901872
@Awesome Welles That blog post is amazing. All the things he did with the Dianauts. It's interesting because at first I grabbed Dia-Battles because he was a giant robot in old school colors. But over time I think it's the Dianauts, and their size and poseability that keeps me interested. They really let you set up a scene and tell a little story. @MasterScale It's an Anycubic Photon. It has amazing print quality for the price. And if you're looking to get one maybe wait for a lightning deal on amazon or an ebay deal. @GGPiKE The use of those trucks is brilliant. They look perfect for deploying Powered Suit Units, especially in an urban environment.
