Dapol state:
Decorated samples are currently being reviewed by the design team and feedback will be sent to the factory in China. Two obvious things that initially stick out are the shades of blue on the DRS model and the presentation of the lining across the grilles, both need some refinement. Once any adjustments to the decoration are complete we will have a clearer view of when we can expect these models in shops. For the meantime we anticipate we will see them during Q4 2025
