jenius Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 For those of you in Japan, it's live on the Arcadia website. I haven't seen any vendors post it yet. Quote
Lolicon Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Hopefully HLJ or another store gets them. Hate using proxy services. Quote
nuwatc Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 pre-prder available now at N-Y https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/20715-kanzen-henkei-vf-1s-strike-valkyrie-roy-focker-special-premium-finish-limited-edition.html Quote

technoblue Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Hm...last time, HLJ got a Hikaru premium batch and offered a better discount. It looks like N-Y is offering a $4 discount for Roy when compared to the Hikaru release, but they're still adding on copious amounts of fees (as they do). I don't mind waiting to see if other stores pick this up before committing. Quote
Universe1010 Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 at 28K I think I'm going to avoid the premium version since I already own the non premium, and go for max and milia premium. Quote

I have to quote spacemanoeuvres: so hard to resist. Do I pay the extra $22 and pick up Roy at N-Y now or do I gamble on the unknown in the hope that another store like HLJ might get some, and that I'll be able to pick up a copy? As someone implied on another forum, that could be too many unknowns. Edit: I lasted until Friday, but couldn't resist any longer. I ended up pre-ordering premium Roy. I can't wait to see these in person. I think I'll put my old Yamato Roy 1S to good use too, and use it as a base for my first custom. Edited April 21, 2017 by technoblue Quote
treatment Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Then Arcadia offers the Weathered Premium three-to-six months later after the white Premium gets released. For perhaps another extra 10k-yen... Quote

MikeRoz Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 Anyone want to do a straight trade of the Premium Roy 1S Super/Strike pack for my Premium Hikaru 1S Super/Strike pack? I'd prefer a black skull emblem to the red. Can't hurt to ask... Quote
chyll2 Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 so HLJ did not have Pre-order for this like Hikaru? Quote
MAC-X Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 HLJ's p.o up .........at 31,007yen! More ex than NY! https://hlj.com/product/ACA82133 Quote

davidwhangchoi Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) HLJ smoking something.... why would i pay that bc i don't want to sticker? what a rip off vs. the normal release. edit: if they do have to charge for jyp domestic tax, why was hikaru's around 25000yen. it's just inconsistent. Edited April 26, 2017 by davidwhangchoi Quote
F360 Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 I think this is the first time HLJ charge more than MSRP. Arcadia 27864 nippon-yasan 28200 HLJ at OMFG 31007 That's more than 11% over MSRP. Quote
Old Man Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Weak!!! I might have to pass on the Premium Finish Version after all Quote
technoblue Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Ah, HLJ, what did you do? For me NY's price is already at the top edge of what I'm willing to pay for the extra Tampo. I wouldn't feel comfortable paying more than that. Quote
Lolicon Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 31k is way too high even for me... 25k was already pushing it. I'll just have to live with my personally decaled 1S. Quote

Graham Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 As much as I want to support Arcadia and as much as I love the v2 VF-1 design, I just can't bring myself to pay this price for what is in effect a 9 year old toy design, for which I already own multiple Yamato v2 Roy Focker versions. Knock 10,000 Yen off the price and I'd consider it. Quote

MAC-X Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) Can't believe its already "order stopped" at HLJ! Even at that price. I just hope Bandai won't have funny ideas for their future DX releases ......... Edited April 26, 2017 by MAC-X Quote
