I have given up collecting. But if I was still collecting, I would be tempted to pick up a VF-0S but at the end my answer would still be:
7. No and I am less likely to purchase an Arcadia product in the future due to the pricing and/or general direction of Arcadia.
This is partly due to the Australian dollar weakening this year as well.
Also with history of QC issues on toys such as shoulder issues on the original VF-0, shoulder issues on the 1/60 VF-1 V2, Bandai VF-171 bad plastic, some white plastic more prone to yellowing easily like the first version VF-25F DX, you will get really ***** off more by spending US$300 as compared to US$150 toy.
