Dim Card EX2 Digimon Tamers Updates- Singles & General Release, Full Lineup w/ Changes, Out Next Year

[MarcFBR]

After the announcement, and then delay of the EX2 Digimon Tamers Dims it's been a bit of a wait for an update.

We have all the new details though, including what has changed, and what is staying the same.



First up...

EX2 Digimon Tamers will still be Guilmon, Terriermon, and Renamon.

Each has their own product page, as now EX2 will not be sold as a set, but rather as single Dims.

Each Dim is 1,100 yen, and will go up for pre-orders on November 1st.

They will also now be a general release instead of Premium Bandai.


The design of the Dim themselves are the same, while the plastic frame/holder has been changed a bit.



On top of that, we have the full lineup...

The lineups are pretty close to what was initially announced, but there is a few changes.

Guilmon has Dukemon X instead of the originally announced MedievalDukemon.
Renamon has Parisamon instead of the originally announced Kuzuhamon.

We also know the final Digimon for each:
Guilmon is Dukemon Crimson Mode
Terriermon is Rapidmon Armor
Renamon is Sakuyamon X

The star next to the Digimon means they appeared in a Dim Card GP, so you can see exactly what is 'new'

The main functional difference over what was originally announces is these will be much easier, and cheaper, for people to get, without having to use an intermediary (or wait for Premium Bandai USA to sell them.)

So, to recap...

A handful of Digimon changes.
The last slot on each Dim is now known.
1,100 yen each, general single release.
Pre-orders open November 1st, 2 weeks from now.
They will be released on February 19th, 2022.



Nothing really negative minus the extra wait, or if one of the Digimon that got swapped were ones you wanted.

Well that's three separate levels we've seen Armors at in the Vital Bracelets, isn't it? We've had some at Adult and Perfect prior to this.

Nice, our first X mons. Some fun changes too; Parisimon threw me for a second, but then duh, Runaway Locomon. And they'll be easier to get too, which is pretty great, but damn if there aren't too many of these...

 

[Muur]

Doesn't seem like it was worth the delay better than cancelling it outright I suppose. Still sucks for anyone that got the original ones, especially via gatcha

I mean, now the GPs have more exclusive Ultimates. Originally, MedievalDukemon and Kuzuhamon would have been here too, and it's very likely so would have Sakuyamon Miko Mode.

 

[TheImpster]

I'm not sure how to feel about these changes. On one hand it does make the GP dims feel less like a waste, because of MedievalGallantmon, ChaosGallantmon and Kuzuhamon, but the ones that REALLY needed changes are still here. And I still think it feels incomplete without Impmon. But at least they're way more accessible now. Who knows. Maybe if we're lucky we get Impmon, Lopmon and Monodramon in other Dim cards.

 

[Tarama]

They put the X forms now so we can hope a Dim card for Hackmon with X and GX in the Ultimates, and of course the exclusive babies.

2 exclusives for gp dim owners is very fair imo. I love the new additions - rather impressed.

Yeah it's not a bad change. I got my Sakuyamon Miko mode (which now I learned english translations called maid mode apparently? lol) today from my GP DIM now that I got around to it. It'll be nice when these go up to get other variants. Plus it being sold alone probably makes it a bit easier if someone's only interested in a single DIM

The English translation of Miko is Shrine Maiden, so Maid Mode is short for Sakuyamon Shrine Maiden Mode

Ah, okay that makes more sense than me being super confused on "...why maid tho." For some reason shrine maiden and maid didn't click. I was there trying to figure out why they didn't keep it as just Miko, but I guess Maid was to keep it as MM for abbreviations while still translating

 

[Bancho]

I like how Terriermon stole every one of of Lopmon's signature evolutions

 

[RyummaSama]

I'm surprised Vajramon is on the Guilmon DIM instead of being on the Renamon DIM, since that was a whole mini-arc in Tamers. It seems that the other evolutions were fairly intentional, although I could just be reading into it.

Evolving into the guy who had the hots for you would be pretty weird, I think.

 

[Dynamicmon]

like in the competitive meta, it seems Ancient Warrior's Magnamon has been forgotten again

well we got the thing that had its tentacles on Rika as a mega for rena

 

[Vittorini]

Dukemon Crimson Mode AND Megidramon in the same DIM.

This is definitely a good day for Tamers fans.

 

[Tarama]

Unlike the first EX series, which is based on Adventure:, this EX series isn't entirely Tamers.

tamers + a couple extra megas that make sense (for the most part) and an alt line

 

[Geode]

Wow X-Antibodies nice.

and Gold Rapidmon is a mega now.

 

[CloneWarrior]

Well that's three separate levels we've seen Armors at in the Vital Bracelets, isn't it? We've had some at Adult and Perfect prior to this.

Fladramon, Lighdramon, Moosemon, Digmon, Manbomon, Harpymon and Lynxmon are Adults.

Sagittarimon, GoldV-dramon and Rhinomon are Perfects.

And Magnamon and Rapidmon Gold are Ultimates.
