Wow, that RE-202 looks very promising!

Just preordered the RE-2 I’ll have a think about the RE-202 after that one has arrived.

Was convinced that the RE-2 would be a day one purchase for me but now they've dropped the RE-202 too

I like the visual design that looks very much like the early BOSS pedals like the DB-5 or the DM-1. Or the Roland Phase Five. Can we expect a Waza Craft version of such a phaser in such a housing?!
