Suddenly a lot of interest in the Arcadia VF-0S.
-
Looks like a normal version sold for about ¥35,000 back in early January on YJA. The harder part looks to be finding one for sale at a reasonable price.
-
I think part of it is that buildings in disrepair are more interesting than clean modern buildings (which have very little detail). You also see a lot of older style architecture, stuff like the Opera House or the Boutique Hotel. Though it's likely a bit more repetitive of a build. Personally I like the more playable sets, like some of the roller coaster submissions, or the buildings with some built-in gimmicks.

There's one on Yahoo Japan Auctions right now (unopened) for ¥60,500: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w1037493683 You'll need to buy it through a proxy like From Japan or Buyee, and pay international shipping. Should come out under $700?

Ghost in the Shell SAC_2045

Finally, took them long enough after that cliffhanger! -
Anyone know what the actual bandai price is for the Bogue 31AX?
-
I meant it looks like the base of it is not wide/heavy enough to keep the thing being displayed from toppling. Need to have a low center of gravity and a wide base to avoid tipping.
-
Yeah, I was mis-remembering the show, been too long.
-
It’s siloed on the surface of a planet at the start, so air resistance does matter some.
-
Hard to say, the MGEX Unicorn (¥23,000) didn't have all the gold plated bits, but it did have a full LED kit built in. Probably in the ¥15,000-¥20,000 range? The fully plated normal release MG kits (Phenex ¥12,000, Hyaku Shiki ¥6,800) aren't that expensive. Though the P-Bandai and Expo ones are usually quite a bit.
-
Sounds like at least part of it is changing the head laser to a shallower angle.
-
They seem to have been putting in a single green tea KitKat recently. Got it in 2 of 3 things I bought from them.
-
IIRC you need a unique (japanese) phone number for each P-Bandai account, which also requires ID.

Arcadia YF-19 Re-Issue and new Premium Finish
Sanity is Optional replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
I'm hoping the new one has better ankles. -
Dark Schneider is back!! (Bastard Netflix anime)

Well, that certainly seems to match the tone of the original. -
🥱 Pass Give us the Nu already.
-
That base looks way to small/light to hold a figure securely.
-
They already re-released the 0S once, who knows if they'll go again.
-
Try holding it in 2 hands across the body like with a VF-27, or Michael's sniper on a VF-25?
-
Frontier and Plus 😤 Though that opinion is probably influenced by binging 7 and listening to Planet Dance every 15-20min for hours...
-
That particular page seems to work fine for me, so it might be something on your end. Perhaps try opening in incognito mode, or from a mobile device?
-
Luna Park has worked OK for me so far, everything came in undamaged. They're definitely not my first choice though, plenty of other shops that I don't need to email to make sure my stuff gets shipped.
-
You and me both. Though the downside there is it only works for KC because of the amount of paint they use. Have to cast all the variants in the same base colors.
-
Issue there is it may not be popular enough to justify a run. Even if the molds already exist, Arcadia does have to hire a factory to do the production run with a minimum production quantity.

Kitz Concept Toy Thread 2.0
Sanity is Optional replied to Stampeed Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Honestly, the old version the legs were pointed upwards, which looked a bit odd. They may have done this to have the legs sit more horizontal compared to the backpack/tail. But the downside is now they're too low compared to the backpack.
