Still its impressive there are 70 pages of comments on a toy that hasnt even been released yet.

Has anyone ever used these guys? https://moehime-japantoys.com/shop/plastic-model/chogokin-series/dx-chogokin-vt-1-super-ostrich/ Apologies if someone has already posted about them but I cant find them.

£168 GBP including tax and shipping for the re released YF19 £227 GBP including tax and shipping for the preorder of the YF23 Just dont get it. In terms of JPY these are 31,000 Yen and 42,000 yen. So this is probably cheaper than the Japanese Sites after shipping etc, but still cant get over that price difference for nothing extra between the two.

I appreciate that, but I am not comparing 25,000 JPY from 2018 I am comparing the YF-19 DEC 2023 release at 25,000 JPY to a YF-21 2024 Release at 35,000 JPY.

I know, I guess I was hoping for a slightly more legitimate reason rather than greed. Cause this isnt even a slight jump...

i still cant understand how the YF-19 is like 25000 yet but this is like 35000 yen? Why such a significant markup? It is rather ridiculous especially when they know people will have to buy it.

Anyone know what this is? https://www.nin-nin-game.com/en/macross/100295-dx-chogokin-macross-do-you-remember-love-vf-1s-valkyrie-ichijou-hikaru-use-148-mechanic-edition-bandai-spirits-.html

Says this on AmiAmi Sales Period May 27, 2022, 13:00 Japan Time ～

Just got mine, have to say its not nearly as polished as the other VF-31s, and the packagaing wasnt nearly as great as the VF-31s. The paint is a bit rough in some areas. Figure is ridiculously tight as well. Wont be purchasing anymore VF-31AX tbh

Congrats, I remember buying gamlin ages ago when it came out and was cheap. Still my favourite in fighter mode. Pairs nicely with arcadia yf-19 in fighter mode.

Got my AmiAmi notifcation. Shipping options seems steep and no idea what air parcel is?

Still waiting for ami ami to give me a shipping quote

I reckon the more people that buy from Non Japanese sites the more supply may appear for future releases.

Another one as well https://tfsource.com/articulated-figures-statues/vf-25-messiah-valkyrie-worldwide-anniversary-version-dx-chogokin-macross-frontier-bandai-spirits/

Waiting to see if they appear on big bad toy store.
