Me to - for sure. The only thing I'm not digging is the frame color, but that can be painted. Those blueish highlights behind the cast cap and engine plate are such a nice touch imo. Separates it from the others, and opens the door for cosmetic changes. The sheen on the plates is great, and I can play around with many spools.

After some research in the net and a lot of eyeballing, this reel starts to look a lot like a Tatula TW SV.domthewon wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 12:48 pmThe side plate is definitely steez a/SVTW not zillion svtw, but the rest does look mostly zillion svtw.Hobie-Wan Kenobi wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 11:39 amThe current Zillion SV is also 34mm. This new 10 looks to share more with the current Zillion SV than the Steez ACarlos Carrapiço wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 11:22 amI believe the new Zillion is a 34 mm spool platform instead of the traditional 36 mm.
This means that probably, the new Zillion 10 will be a spin-off of the Steez A and that is a good thing.
If so, they could at least use a brighter color....

Re: Daiwa Project T 2020
It is an updated version of this guy. The Zillion SV. It shares parts with the Tatula CT but has a free floating 34 mm spool.Carlos Carrapiço wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 3:23 pmAfter some research in the net and a lot of eyeballing, this reel starts to look a lot like a Tatula TW SV.domthewon wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 12:48 pmThe side plate is definitely steez a/SVTW not zillion svtw, but the rest does look mostly zillion svtw.Hobie-Wan Kenobi wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 11:39 amThe current Zillion SV is also 34mm.

Re: Daiwa Project T 2020
Been waiting for the new Zillion a while now, probably just gonna step up to the Steez CT though instead. Nothing wrong with this one, just not sure the specifics yet or if they will offer any non ridiculous ratios. I would be a little disappointed if this was just an updated Zillion SV TW or an updated Tatula SV (I know it has to be one of them, but just like to see some more change). I would love to see an aluminum version of the CT SV Steez's frame.

Re: Daiwa Project T 2020
Looks so, but we don't know that for sure yet. At any rate, this new Zillion blows that out of the water cosmetically imo. Hopefully it's a little lighter.

Re: Daiwa Project T 2020
Looks really nice to me. I like the improved palm side plate the most. I have no interest in a 10+ rato reel though. 7.1 is my go to.

Re: Daiwa Project T 2020
i take it this was the hint on the "high end jig rod" thread on bbc? i got bottom contact covered...i'm hoping for something like 6'11 firewolf shore competition!!! even better if it's got the same reel seat as the australian versionbronzefly wrote: ↑Wed Nov 20, 2019 4:44 amLikewise...Jason Penn wrote: ↑Wed Nov 20, 2019 2:09 amhopefully there will be some new rods coming with the reels. i'm a huge daiwa rod fan.
