Bandai VF-1J DX Chogokin VF-1J Ichijo Hikaru Store Limited Edition VS the old one

[BrokenValk]

Hello there,

I'm looking for a Bandai DX Chogokin 1/48 VF-1J Ichijo Hikaru.

Is there any difference between the Bandai VF-1J DX Chogokin VF-1J Ichijo Hikaru Store Limited Edition launched last November at Tamashii Store in Tokyo and the old one?

Which one should I choose? (if there are some differences)

 

Thank you so much and have a nice day,

Stefano

Store limited has a different design on the flight stand vs initial one. Also includes 4 AMM-1 which the initial one didn't have.

You can see the differences in this video:

Store limited is better value since it comes with missiles.

Finally received my copy today, not quite happy about it. The middle cover does not sit flushed no matter how I adjusted it.
