Line 6 Space Chorus

I just found out about this but can't seem to find much on it other than a youtube video and some sounds from their website. Normally, I stick to boutique-y things or more "high-quality" so I'm looking for a decent sound but I still use a DS-1 since I've never gotten over the tonez. Anyway, I have Malekko's vibrato and an MXR big flanger for mod and I really dig both. I've never been a huge fan of chorus but this guy sounds pretty versatile and could provide a few more options, like SUPER VIBRATO since I love mine already. This chorus sounds just like a pretty sweet deal and I might go for one anyway since they're pretty cheap but anyone have any thoughts on them?

Bump! Any input? I just got the byoc octave fuzz and classic comp starter kit so I'll be busy for a while but I do have extra funds in the music area.

Can't comment on the sound, but it is $70 new for a stereo ToneCore pedal, which is a great deal. The Line 6 store has all ToneCore modules on sale for $19.99 right now:

So you can buy a Space Chorus pedal, Verbzilla module, and Echo Park module for $110 total.

What do you know about the modules? I noticed some stuff about that. It sounds like just the area with the knobs and you put it your own enclosure? Sounds like a good deal for 50 off.

I programmed a few custom modules, and have a small pile of Line 6 modules and docks. The module has all of the code, knobs, and switches. Any of the modules work in any of the Line 6 docks, which is pretty cool. Gives you a lot of flexibility, because you can swap out without buying a whole new pedal. The modules are locked in with a couple of hex screws, so it's solid and no worries about things falling out in transit.

The modules used to cost $30-70 on their own, and Line 6 sold empty stereo docks for $80. So the Space Chorus pedal is cheaper than buying an empty dock. I like the Echo Park and Verbzilla modules (no experience with the Space Chorus).

I don't like Line 6's digital choruses and I don't like the design of the docks. However, as curt says, the Echo Park and Verbzilla are great.
