SCOOPDA...MSRP for the premium version SDF-1 will be 49,800 yen. 

 

YEESH! 

bump to the next page. whaa!?! that price

proxy service has to pay tax so it's even more. only chance is if an import store officially carries it without ordering it through the arcadia web order.

HLJ is our only hope as they did for Hikaru Premium but they included the tax and more for Roy Premium.

nippon yasan i believe will have to pay the tax to web order and then charge a bit more for profit before selling to us.

tax

[erizai]

My guess is accurate, so which shop is up?

[Slave IV]

Let's say $20 an hour...it would take more than 6 hours to do that job so seems reasonable to me. Of course I'd rather pay less but this is Macross we're dealing with, lol.

Wallet blast pic please 

[F360]

Price is 53784 (tax included).

Proxy service or stores will be paying that price , so you will be paying that price plus fees. 

[Mommar]

And who's that a-hole who responded to the twitter announcement with "SDFM next"... oh, that was me.

I'll just keep my Yamato version.

same. Still....not as bad as i thought it would be, congrats to all those who missed the first one and can swing this one. 

[gingaio]

Sheesh. With shipping and otaku tax, it'll be closer to $550 to $600. Who am I kidding. I'm preordering as soon as it goes up. Though honestly, I'd pay more if Bandai ever releases the version it teased a while back. I'd rather have that DX version, and the usual Bandai quality.

So the new date on the product page is  now

* Order closing date: September 7, 2017 at 16 PM

so did they mess up and should be the start date/time instead of closing?

YEESH! 

That's... a tough sell.  That regular version is looking better and better...

[Aye Aye]

Hmmm decision decisions. How much shelf space does this beast take up? Anyone with a yammie that has the tale of the tape?

[ErikElvis]

As far as I'm concerned it's not even an option to get the reg version when the PF's coming out.

I know they just announced the price for the PF SDF-1, is there any idea when in 2018 it will be released?

Arcadia's site still lists April 2018 as the release date.

And boy, it's expensive, but I think I'll shoot for the moon on this one. 

[505thAirborne]

Thanks guys! If it's April then that's 8 months from now to save up.

Well... maybe?  That's the release date, when is the pre-order up and do we have to pay upfront?

[505thAirborne]

If it's HLJ would it not be the usual, pay up when it's in stock? 

Edited August 22, 2017 by 505thAirborne

[technoblue]

49800 / 8 = 6225 JPY (w/out tax)

Around the cost of eight Figmas or SH Figuarts...Must focus...

Arcadia notes that orders are opening at 4pm August 22, Japan time. Orders are closing September 7.

If the usual stores elect to carry this as well, we should see those pre-orders pop up soon.

[Mommar]

Wait a minute... 4pm August 22nd is TONIGHT for all of us!

In about 3 hrs., to be exact.

[no3Ljm]

As expected, price is high. For a premium one, it's still cheaper than what we can find at ebay and YJA. Since I don't have the Yamato version from before, I'm not gonna complain. Imagine, if some of you guys including me bought one from aftermarket ($800-1000) two years ago, we're probably banging our heads right now.

 

[Lolicon]

Come on HLJ! Got that 20% off coupon burning a hole in my pocket. 

[Astralith]

So, do you have to pay full price for pre-order? or put money down??

[Lolicon]

With HLJ it's "No money down!" 

For other shops it's "No, money down!" 

[Astralith]

THANK. GOD.

You walked right into this one! 

 

[Slave IV]

I don't think any shop charges upfront for PF Arcadia releases except those who do for everything (like Anime-Export). 

[Scyla]

So, will HLJ open preorders in 90 minutes?

[jenius]

HLJ has been very sporadic on premium Arcadia releases... I wouldn't expect them to put this up right on time though I hope I'm wrong.

[locidm]

Looks like Arcadia site preorder is now active......

 

no other site has it available yet?
