Sildani 244 Posted January 7 Not bad! Looks like there’s storage under the “hatch.” Now: will they charge ¥10,000 for this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Possible that Arcadia will go in hold-my-beer mode when they saw the original still getting scalped at ami and/or manda for almost 10k-yen used/abused...

davidwhangchoi 106 Posted January 7 are these new stands? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenius 995 Posted January 7 I'm going to assume it functions way better but it doesn't look like much of a change from the original release.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

borgified 141 Posted January 7 Hmm... Now I want the newer version after getting the original one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I didn't since it's expensive to get. So hopefully this time the price is somewhere around $40+/-. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
F360 357 Posted January 8 I can see them pricing these at 8998 yen. But i won’t get these unless they are on sale, have the original ones before and don’t like them since they are suppose to grab onto the top of the fast pack instead of the bottom.

With all the VF-1's that they have reissued, I think it's really about time for them to start reproducing again those arm stands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenius 995 Posted January 8 What did they charge for their clear stand alone display stand? Hopefully they don't have to pay much for licensing right for the launch arm design but there's that and and the added complexity of the arm and all its bits. My guess is 6,500¥.

treatment 309 Posted January 8 Unless the new Launch Arm can actually finally do the proper anime-accurate grab-mode with the claws, I rather they just re-release the recent Clear-Stand and/or resurrect the Mighty Block stands (possibly super-size it a bit) instead.

Yeah. The Mighty Block would be a good alternative from the Arm Stand. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seti88 635 Posted January 9 Hehe i just posted a pic in the DX thread with the gears down! Those yammie clear stands look cool. Bandai's stand were a throwback to NASA's/USAF(?) flight displays with the arching arm.... And as always yeti's stand are the standard for macross valks!

borgified 141 Posted January 9 I think that it's fair to say that all of us will be on the edge of the upcoming SV-51 price wise as we all know how Arcadia works. First with the regular release to get sales and interest and then "WHAM" the Premium version follows out a few years later as we all look back at the VF-1 and the SDF-1. [Actually not to give Arcadia ideas: I haven't seen a PE Version of the VF-1J with the GBP. You can toss me into the frying pan with that idea folks. ] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want a PF version of Hikaru's 1J with super packs. My ideal set would be 6 PF valks: Hikaru and M&M 1Js (all with supers), a CF with supers, a 1D (with supers for fun), and a TV Roy with super packs. We've only gotten two of those so far.

Sanity is Optional 367 Posted January 9 I'm still waiting (hoping) for PF VF-0D and PF VF-1J with Armor... If only so I can buy one at retail cost, even if it's inflated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
