It's labeled as "ver IV" like those models, so it might be at least partially remolded or something?

In the Gundam Figures thread someone spoke of this release having a new shoulder joint so the shoulder armor can move.

EDIT:

By the by, "IV" stands for "Invisible Victory," the subtitle of the new anime season. It's a play on it also being the fourth season of FMP.

There was a tweet or two teasing a re-release, or possibly whole new version, of the Laevatein Metal Build coming out.

it seems this new MB ARX-8 LAEVATEIN Ver.IV is not a straight reissue.  The shoulders looks to have a extra joint that you can tilt up.  similar to what they did on the upcoming MB Arbalest.  ;)  And it tampo marking will be different or less.  Preorder will be on 02-01-18,, just in case....copy pasta from the gundam figure thread.

Is this version in 1/60 scale?

Same. I have two of the Koto kits preordered, as well as the MB Arbalest and the Aoshima Laevatein. The Koto kit will complement the Koto Laevatein nicely (which also sports the original design from the novels/manga), and the Aoshima kit will fit in with the other Aoshima FMP kits I already have (though I wonder if perhaps I should go for the 1.5 re-releases of those as well, seems like they did some extensive re-engineering).

I'll wait to see how satisfied I am with those before going in for the Bandai stuff.

Amiami and HS sold out within literal seconds. Sheesh.

Here's hoping my HLJ order went through alright. How'd you all find the link? I kept refreshing a search page for "Laevatein" and didn't see it.

you use the advanced search instead of the normal search.

Closed @HLJ now.

Now I see why some of you do this regularly. It's a bit of a rush.

It's just easier to get it this way than to wait for reopening.

Thanks for the tip.

Has there been instances of preorders reopening (not due to customer cancellation)? Like Bandai/Yamcadia/etc. decide to up production numbers or something.

Would NY be in on this as well? They're currently undergoing maintenance, unfortunately.

yes, but N-Y normally opens later, from 1 hours to 2 hours later.

It happens, but with no set rhyme or reason to it. With the loss of FigInStock it'll be even harder to know exactly when it does, too.
