do we know when it’s going on sale or the specs? 

From Daiwa's JDM site

 

Steez SV TW100 (Reel)|DAIWA

it doesn't look much different, except position of the mag stand-off adjustment.  

I'm not disappointed, but I prefer this position over my Zillion - I find this easier to read when it's time for a notch or two.

Do we think it’s bigger or smaller than the zillion ?

Same size, 34-mm dia spool that interchanges.  In fact, it's a magnesium-frame Zillion with extra ball bearings, better thumb clutch.  

 

Looks cool but if I saw the cost of this reel correctly, it will be the same price as Steez SV Limited. Around $500 at the JDM price.

I think hes talking about the new steez which hasn't been sold yet to my knowledge. It actually has a 32MM spool. Not sure about frame size as it is actually a new frame.

Correct, the new steez. Im wondering if its smaller 

Just going by a few videos I’ve seen of it, it looks like a more compact version of the zillion G. I don’t think it’s as low profile as the 16’ svtw. But it’s impossible to make an accurate statement with just a video. It just looks like it sits taller on a rod, but I could be wrong on that. They moved the brake dial to the underside like the zillion where it’s not recessed in the side plate anymore. 5.6oz yeah it looks like it’s gonna start to trickle in between December and March with various models. Plats price of 487(ish) is a great deal for it. 

Here's an unboxing video. Looks like a more compact 16' steez svtw. Looks great. Not a huge fan of the handful of 32mm spools I've used but I think I'll Definitely going to get one at the PLAT price.

Hot d**n that is one sexy and clean looking reel! Digitaka has them ready to go on their site as soon as stock arrives. Will definitely be giving this one a try!
