Asked B-T today about the weight of the new boots: 2,5 kgs. The same weight as my older Deeluxe Suzuka's. Seems that only the color and buckles have changed.
Edit: my Suzuka's are 2,5 kgs with the heavy BTSkit.

So it means that standard 700 is bout 0.5 kg more due more heavy innerboots.

700 T (thermo) of course, best fit and just not that much euro's more.

Just quick note, that some people prefer thicker front flap and extra strap of inner boot.
But me personally also like more of themo

So I`ll take thermo for best fit.
My feet are 25,9 cm. Mondo size 25 or 26?
I read on Bomber, that smaller is batter. Is that so?

If you have a high arch take one mondo bigger (so like 27.0), like I have.
If you have normal feet, you can take mondo 26.0 because you have to put in good footbeds as well and they take some space. Because of the thermos they will be formed to your feet.

Why do I need foot beds?
Are beds also included if you buy thermo liner?

Thermo's are flat, there is no shape in it. I get cramp in my feet if I don't have footbeds in my boots.

So before I go to boot store I have to get custom made footbeds for mi feet, and after this I can mold the liner?

YES, or buy some sportfootbeds which are already formed in a sportshop.
Many snowshops have possibilities to form some footbeds to your feet, mostly by first heating them and then you have to stand on them for a while on a special formed designed footbed machine.
Some idea to form yourliners at home,there are many articles on them at bomber:
