Clem Henry:
Hey Guys,

From the videos/pics looks like the bail arm/assy is still the same..






Looks like there is more alloy in the bottom of the spool (where the plastic cover used to be) this carries all the way to the rotor arms (should be more rigid than the current model)






Includes another gear for slow oscillation (can also see this the provision made in the cover - photo above) may also increase bearing count if supported by bearings






Main shaft and pinion appear the same - side plate of different design - one piece handle should be better - beefier main gear than the current one.






More resistant coating etc and redisgned spool lip should be good also...

Trevor Skinner:
Clem,


Ooh, Ahh.

Great photos by the way. The best detail yet.

You'll be getting mine straight from the box.


Regards,


Trevor

I note that on Rayanne's website they are running out the current model and stating that the new model will be available in in Aus in April. Could be that we don't have that long to wait?!

"Shimano Stella SW
New Model Due This April
- Will be around 20% More Expensive...
Last Chance To Grab a High Performance Bargain ....."

George Relf:
Love it Clem. Mr  8) indeed with your sleuth detective work  ;D

Interesting with Ray & Anne's stating ~20% more. I guess they haven't pulled it out of thin air?

Here's another one no-one has picked up or I have missed ... the handle. In some pics/vids it is yellow and in others it is silver.

In one of the pics from the magazine Alan pulled out, there are two stellas side by side with one having gold and the other having silver. Will it depend on the size of the reel or will Japan get silver and others get gold or the other way around?
