twich Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I think that Arcadia could make some serious cash if they were to re-release some of those things that few people had the opportunity to acquire, such as the 1/60 Premium Finish VF-0S and VF-0D, heck, release all the Macross Zero 1/60, but make the “Premium Finish” the regular release to compete with Bandai’s DX Chogokin tampo printing. Also, Arcadia could have released a WWM edition VF-1J for the 40th. They did it for 30&35. Twich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently paid 13,900 yen to a proxy in order to ship by EMS an Arcadia SDF-1 Premium Finish to USA, it only took 5 days to arrive. DHL will be more expesive for sure, but not so much..

Sanity is Optional Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Some of y'all seriously overestimate the collectibles market for Macross, and underestimate how much money it costs to start up a new production run, even for an existing mold.

I understand that Arcadia is trying to be smarter and these times are challenging in different ways. But why not keep future releases up for tease? Why pull the VF-5000 from the line up? Don't they want us to keep the light on for future releases? Said excuse sounds weak. Edited February 15 by Bolt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well when/if they finally announce a re-release, what are the best sites these days to check for pre-orders? I haven't shopped for anime merch in quite awhile and am sure there are a lot of newer sites around. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasonc Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I guess I can now look at getting an SDF-1. I keep putting it off due to not being as interested in ships as toys, but every once in awhile, I feel like I should just have one. In any case, as I was at Wonderfest, I'm a bit disappointed in Arcadia and what they had on display. They didn't even show the Lynn Minmay figure, and I was waiting on that one just as much as the others. That is an easy money maker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish it were PF, but if I don't have one of those fall in my lap at a bargain beforehand, I will likely grab this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcadia looked to have a not so exciting offering to get excited about , from the few pictures I've seen. But I'm sure there was a bunch of other cool stuff at Wonderfest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daBlah! Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Based on what Mr.K mentioned that there was no updates on the current line of products they were working on since the last exhibition. I felt it would have been at least something to show the line up of their products under development even if they were on hold, not progressed or delayed due to costs.
