Visiting Japan In Late Oct

[Crazy Canuck II]

Not sure where to put this, but I'm going to be visiting Akihabara/Tokyo in late Oct. Obviously I will be doing some major shopping. One of the possible items on my list is the VF-1J super stealth. I'm wondering if those in Japan, or those who have been there recently could comment on the availability of the super stealth. Basically I'm wondering what people think the odds are of there being any around in a few months. I don't want to miss out and am debating weather to get on now or wait. I know it's a risk if I wait, what I'm trying to figure out is how much of a risk.

Also, I'm wondering if anyone cares to comment on what new items of note will be coming out around Oct, so I know what to keep an eye out for. Here's my list so far:

1/48 VF-1J super stealth

1/48 GBP-1S low vis armour

MP starscream

EVA Soul of Chogokin

Tetsujin 28 Soul of Chogokin

Kaiyodo Armored Core kits

Various NightmareB4 Xmas and Corpse Bride collectables

Binaltech Mirage

Any suggestions?

Thanks, I would really appreciate this.

Well you should be O.K for the NB4 Xmas stuff as there is loads of it arround over there. The Toy shop (cant remember name) thats at the oposite end of the road to the electric town station in AKI (by the park) has loads on floor 4 IIRC. Someone here will be able to chime in on names as I have forgotten. but its right oposite the next railstation from AKI electric town.

Incidently Its my intention to return in late October as well so shoot me a PM and maybe we could hook up.

If you want a more upto date on product stock levels then contact SaveRobotech as he lives in Taito town and could probably go round and count em all for you
