If by everything you mean everything except for the scale length, bridge, finish, inlays, and binding then yeah 
I wish i knew. I toyed with the idea of getting the DKA8, by the end of the year (yeah, money is really tight and needs to be spent on other things). Would love to have the DKA7 with that gorgeous maple fretboard, but the lack of a tremolo is a deal breaker for me (ok, i know that most of you prefer fixed bridge 7s, but i really want a tremolo on a 7 string
)But being limited, I'm guessing they won't be available for a year...
I completely agree. And since I missed my chance on the ibanez 1527m I have to buy this! And honestly I think this is a much nicer guitar to, as a price-option view, the dimarzio's, hipshot bridge (or at least that's what it looks like), planet waves locking tuners, maple fret board, kill switch, and Dunlop strap locks. Ibanez would never offer that for a guitar that is under a grand, hell ESP too. So I have to say Jackson wins this year and I will be ordering one of these ASAP!

They don't exactly look like the same scale length either.
EDIT: Upon closer inspection of these and the other photographs, it looks as though they are the same. Just in this particular picture the DKA8 (I keep wanting to type RGA8 for some reason) is slightly bigger than the 7 string which throws everything off.

Maybe only a limited number are going to be available to the European market, I say wait until NAMM.
I just hope the Broderick is not limited Edition.

I guess us guys who love the OG Jacksons need to still take our money to the Jackson CS or somewhere else 
Another year and no SL2H-7 Pro model or even USA Select.... but these.... smh.

I don't understand German, but I just found this:
JACKSON NAMM News 2013 Teil 2 Limited Editions DKA7 & DKA8 | Music Store News
So, it seems that DKA7 and DKA8 are a limited editon?
They'd fucking better not be limited edition. I will end Jackson if they don't make these full production. They can't get me erect and then leave me to my own devices.

Anyone know where this thing will be price wise?

I was doing some comparisons to existing prices on Thomann and US retailers, just comparisons mind you, but if I'm right, it'll be 650-699.
