Third party company Perfect Effect have shared images of their DX-11 Honor Warrior & DX-11B Dark Warrior which will be released for their 10th anniversary.
This is a special re-release of Perfect Effect PE-DX-10 Jetpower Revive Commander main core robot without the trailer and armor parts. It will include a new sword as a bonus (looks like the one included with Perfect Effect Origin Leonidas).
Perfect Effect is also taking the chance for an inevitable black redeco: DX-11B Dark Warrior. Now you have the chance to grab this mold in Nemesis Prime colors. The bonus sword is also included in blue.
We still have no concrete information on price, but these items are due to be released by June 2020. Check all the mirrored images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

Yes, this version is. The Ion Blaster was adjusted to be 5mm compatible.
Randomento
I know Ziltama touched on it briefly but anyone knows if the ion blaster is wfc blast effect compatible?
Sky Warp 55
I don’t think that’s really possible

I really hoped they'd squeeze a Magna Convoy repaint out of this mold, but alas.

I'm still waiting for someone to make a mod for this figure so I can use it for my ginrai since I missed out on the original.

I needed a Nemesis Prime for my collection and I already use Dark Warrior as a Upgraded version of SG Prime thats a herald of Unicron. So I bought another Dark Warrior and made a few deco tweaks and altered the smokestacks transformation to make him match the Legends Card Artwork:

Given they released two of the Optimus mold without the trailer, I don't think it would have been a stretch to think a standalone trailer might have come. Though, Dark Warrior doesn't fully mesh with either existing trailer deco, so it does lead to whether or not they would have wanted to do a standalone of one of the two already released decos, or just a Nemesis Prime standalone. Though, I would also love a Delta/Magna Warrior, but that's just me being my usual sucker self at the thought of the blue Prime deco on a mold.

I couldn't see them selling the trailer without Optimus. But it is kind of surprising they didn't release a Dark Warrior version with the trailer. I have to believe that would have sold just as well as the other versions.
Dragga
I am actually surprised they didn't plan to release a solo variant, given both Honor and Dark Warrior retain all the compatibility with it. Aside from the heads, there's zero remolding near as I can tell.
Basilisk
Ah thank you! that looks good I do wish they made a Nemesis Trailer though. I have Honor Warrior and Dark Warrior but none of the Trailer editions. I wouldn't mind owning them at some point but I would prefer if Perfect Effect made a Burning Jinrai version or some other nice redeco for the Trailer editions so I have more of a reason to buy it.

Not the best for photos, but, here ya go
Basilisk
does anyone have pictures of Dark Warrior combined with the Jet power Trailer?

PE had quite a few releases before Covid. They just dealing with the same thing as all the other 3rd parties, getting factory time. Many of the factories produce consumer goods as well as toys.

Was the reissue of this figure the last sign of life from Perfect Effect? I wonder if we will see them come back one day?

The ratchets are there for the Jetpower versions, which come with Big Honkin' Cannons that need the ratchet to stay up. PE apparently did not see a need to retool it, and I'm cool with that because it maintains compatibility if you want to, e.g., pair Dark Warrior with the Bayverse-style Jetfire armor.
ziltama
After having the figures for a while, the ratcheted joints suck. They wear down relatively quickly and go from super tight to floppy. The original PC-16 Jinrai Prime mold is holding up better over time.

Well, I just recieved Honor Warrior (Still waiting on Dark warrior). I have to say…I'm underwhelmed! I dont agree with having ratchets in the lateral motion of the shoulders, or the forward and backward, for that matter. Nothing is heavy enough to need them. The wrist joint should have been painted to match the rest of the arm, as well.
However, the sculpt is good the paint is well aplied and he really had no loose joints. To me hes pretty much a high grade over priced deluxe figure. I don't hate it, but it could have been better. 6/10
ziltama
4 Fext-03 sets put together. Price went up 50% or so since I bought them unfortunately.
Mine does the same now. I haven't been brave or care enough to risk damage to take a deeper look.
shioshikei
Whats your diorama name bro?
DO MINH HOI
I bought PE DX11B and was having big problems with his wrist joint … it was tight on the first day I bought it (bouncing sound could be heard) but now it's very loose. And I couldn't find any screws to see what's inside. can anything help?
