So, what's the difference between A and D? Colors, details, stand? Just the box?

It's the same nothing different. Just why they made it a Double Chance Variant, I have no idea and how to get one either..

Edit: I think the box will have D and not the A.

10 units that have a different letter on the box, but are otherwise identical?

Sounds like a production error :huh:

I anticipate them selling for completely obtuse prices.

Production error is not the reason why they did it.  See my post on October 14th (Second one I think).

Oh, I know it's intentional, it just sounds like the sort of thing that would happen due to a production error.

The Sitting EXQ Sheryl is up for sale (or pre-order?) on Amazon Japan (2 copies as of now). Note that it will cost you 6.4k yen or less depending on where you're located.

https://www.amazon.co.jp/EXQフィギュア-シェリル・ノーム-サヨナラノツバサ-ランカ・リー-SPIRITS/dp/B07KGHCNB8/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_2?s=hobby&ie=UTF8&qid=1543349174&sr=1-2-fkmr1&keywords=figure+spirits+kuji+10th+アニバーサリー+シェリル+ノーム

Edit: So there is a slight difference between the Version A and Version C and this vid will till you. This collector has all three has all three versions. Cut to roughly 21:10 for all three version of Sheryl.

I'm going to include two more vids that I found as well.

What is the difference? I'm not seeing it.

It seems like Versions A and C of the Spirits Kuji Sheryl are the quickest sellers. 

If anyone has their Spirits Kuji Sheryl already, please post pics up. Let's see if this version of Sheryl is up to everyone's expectations (based on the reviews I've seen so far on Youtube, this is worth the purchase).

For those who are interested in getting the sitting version of EXQ Sheryl, I did more digging and found out that it will be released on December 12th.

Credit to all the people that posted it. All the three variants are posted and the last one is too cute not to share. ^_^

How's the paint/mould quality?

Still waiting on my C variant to show up on this end.

This is the version of Sheryl that one should really get into their collection. The paint in my copy is not too bad (not the best as there's a few spots that could need more blending as you'll see it when you get it on hand) except for the wand as it's not fully painted in the bronze (?) colour as the black mold shows up in spots here and there.

Watch out for the translucent soft skirt (hands, loose hair curls, crown, wand tie and tight bows) as it's made from a softer pliable plastic . The bow and the hair tie is feels a bit stiffer.

As per Cartman's famous quote on South Park goes... "You bastard!" :D

Can you post pics and your thoughts upon receiving it @Lolicon if possible? I'll poke around on the web and YouTube for reviews. I have a feeling that you'll beat me to it.

170mm

The eyes on this one aren’t great. Not sure what they were trying to archive with pupils that take up her whole eye. Prototype photo had smaller pupils (still big but less taking up the entire eye)

LOL well I'm sure you can find plenty of Japanese reviews long before my slow SAL pack arrives.

Got my Figure Spirits Kuji Sheryl ver C in yesterday, definitely the best sculpt of the 3 Sheryls I have.

Mine just arrived too but haven't had time to open it or the stack of Amazon boxes by the front door. Maybe I'll open that first when I get home so I can compare with past Sheryls...

I believe that these are the official Banpresto EXQ Sheryl Nome Version 2 pics and found them after digging through the web.

From Dengeki Hobby webpage:  https://hobby.dengeki.com/reviews/672161/

Here are all the pics on the site itself.

Edit: It's a reasonable representation of Sheryl Nome IMHO. Note that these are different from Noel's post a few pages back.

Finally had some time to open up the most recent Sheryl figure. It's been awhile since we got a really nice Sheryl figure (the previous game prize release was, well, definitely game prize quality).

10 years on and we're still getting good Frontier figures, but hardly anything from Delta? I guess we should be thankful we didn't get a terrible VF-31 line followed by a renewal line. :rolleyes:

Comes in a pretty big box.

Bandai, why would you make a box with an opening cover and a window to see the contents, only to tape the cover shut?

This Sheryl sculpt is way better than the last release and actually looks like Sheryl.

Looks good close up but you can see the imperfections on her. Fairly par for the course as Ichiban figures aren't on the same level as full retail figure releases.
