Who's hungry for more Diaclone goodness? Fresh from the floors of the 56th All Japan Hobby & Model Show 2016 and thanks to ????? ????? and Amiami, we have some new display shots of Dia Battles V2 Cosmo Maneuver Type! This fella is a pretty white retool of TakaraTomy's first Diaclone Reboot figure Dia Battles V2 (Red/Blue and Grey Moon Base prototype) and appears to be sporting to new weaponry, boosters, and other trinkets. They also show off his capabilities to mix it up with the Dia Battles', and the possibilities seem near endless. And if you haven't had you fill of Dia-fun, check out our newest Seibertron Gallery for Masterpiece MP-31 Delta Magnus (otherwise known as Powered Convoy from the pre-Transformers days). What do you think of this line so far? Let us know, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com: home for the best Galleries and Conversation around!

They are real nice it's just a small shame they are so shockingly small compared to the price.

All still gonna remain on my wants list though.

Would be neat to have this, but its price is too high for me. Shame, since I really like the design of the Diaclone reboot mecha.

Details were few, and pics were fewer at the time. Now they ain't. Boy I love it when people question WHY something was news'd. >:oP

I've been thinking. At first I was all in for this Diaclone line, but now, seeing that the line could be endless with slight modifications, I just don't know. This might end up costing me more than I'd like to spend....

I'm having the exact same mental/emotional/financial dilemma. That white knight looks amazing, but for the money I shelled out on the first one I'd rather get an entirely new but compatible robot, or at least one with more retooling and/or new parts.
I may hold out to see what comes from some of the other models we saw a while ago.

Waiting for Big Powered. I'm not also into these "limited" repaint versions too.

Agreed, agreed and agreed.
I enjoyed my V2 but for the price points its hitting, I would prefer Diaclone reissues of pre G1 color schemes; i.e. Blue Swoop or Red Skids.
I am glad the first V2 is in my collection but the TF related items would entice my spending a lot more.

I'm such a dingbat!

I just purchased the colored red version (L2016) only 'cause I thought the gray one was a lazy re-color. It was actually a different mold? :BANG_HEAD:

Not entirely, only the chest compartment is different.

And I just noticed DA-07 Cosmobattles 2. It's a retooled center component, based on the DA-06 "Cosmic Maneuver" release.

The helmet part is a bit different :HEADHURTS:

Now it's all sold out.

It looks like Diaclone isn't safe from retoolitis. Let's hope it stays limited to the Powered Suits.

It isn't, unfortunatley. Even the newer larger bots are retools of DiaBattles. Heavy retools, but at he core, retools. It's kinda bringing me down.

Thanks for the links Fen! ;)^

I'm confused though. Ages 3 and Up has them listed in two packs. At a pretty decent price considering.

But AmiAmi is selling them individually. :-?

I knew you'd show up.

Maybe Ages 3 and Up wants to make sure their entire case would be sold.

This time I ordered the both of 'em.

Ages 3 and Up aren't selling them in a two-pack, according to the product description:

"*Set C and D shown in picture. Set C sold separately."
