I just came home to a package waiting for me :D
The Matador BR 200 by Tiablo.

All I can say at this stage is wow. This light is high quality! Comparing to my Tiablo MA6 (I'm a fan of the "Mid-range" throwers") the BR200 (Quality-wise) is on-par if not higher quality than the MA6.

I would describe the MA6 as "delicate feeling" compared to the BR200 which feels more "hefty". Some quick points before my guests arrive for dinner (review with piccys later) :
-HA is smooth, shiny compared to HA on MA6
-Threads are rectangular-ish? and thick (Jetbeam style), improvement over MA6
-Beam with SMO reflector simliar to MA6
-Tint is pure white (compared to my warmer MA6)
-Multimode with forward clicky. Operates better than i thought it would.
-Driver module looks similar to MA6 with reverse polarity protection
-Feels very tank
-Removable bezel
-18650-able

Thats all I can think of for now. Now I can't decide whether I like the Br200 more or MA6 more D: If i had to make a choice now it would probably be MA6 due to simple one mode forward clicky (Who needs low on a thrower anyway).
