Valkyrie addict Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 February, plenty of time to save up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 February, plenty of time to save up yep indeed. so that timing roughly places it in between the two Bandai DX Delta releases which is good. and im pretty sure I won't bother buying another VF-0S just for these parts.. they too expensive and I don't have the display space.

Ignacio Ocamica Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Great!!! Now where's the preorder button?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Cool. Hopefully preorders maybe next month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 As per bing translated...Good morning! coming soon is open for reservation now! So pre-orders might even be as soon as this week? Not too worried abt the PO madness since its arcadia, however am looking out for the price... No point getting to the pre-order and find out that its outlandishly expensive....although i know that wouldn't stop some MWers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) what ya reckon.. (upwards of) 20k yen? is what I meant to say.. Edited October 12, 2016 by spanner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) I honestly hope it wont be in that stratosphere...many will then think if they pass on this they could get a valk instead... edit: or get a freaking monster 12k - 15k?

505thAirborne Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 what ya reckon.. 20k yen? Sure hope not, as much as I want the RA. 20k yen would be rather pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperHobo Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Good, now show me the price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I can't imagine it being $200, that would be outrageous. Around $100 or less is reasonable. I'm sure they know we will pay whatever though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 The original 1/48 GBP, released 10 years ago, was 12,600 Yen. This is similar in size and features so I'd guess that's your bare minimum dream amount. Since Arcadia has generally shown significant mark-ups, I'm hoping they don't exceed 15,000 Yen. They should do something like include a 10% off your next VF-0 purchase with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barurutor Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I hope it's around 12-13k yen and weighs less than 1.25kg shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickyg Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'm with Jenius on this one. It's a big set, it goes on a big valk, and Arcadia's pricing is already higher than what yamato used to do. I'm fully expecting something between 15k and 20k Yen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master of macross Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 17k yen for me...I hope to be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Whether it's below or higher than Y15000, the question now is how many set are you guys going to preorder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 The RA doesn't even come with a valk included, so even 15k is ...how would i say... pushing it? Am contemplating getting 2 sets since it fits the 0A too...but it will depend on the price. Of course when pre-order comes all logic goes out the window!

sh9000 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Whether it's below or higher than Y15000, the question now is how many set are you guys going to preorder? 2 sets. HLJ will probably have a limit of just 1 so I'm hoping NY and Amiami don't have that limit. NY most likely won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro2k6 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 2 sets. HLJ will probably have a limit of just 1 so I'm hoping NY and Amiami don't have that limit. NY most likely won't.IIRC Arcadia dont have "the 1 per account limit". that's Bandai BS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Arcadia are niche, they need to sell as many of anything as possible. It wouldn't make any sense for them to limit somebody, anywhere, who wanted to buy six of something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technoblue Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) I'll be sitting out on this pre-order. The armor set looks good, but there are other things that I need to budget for at the moment. I'll give it another look after release day when you guys have retail copies in hand, and there are some initial impressions.

derex3592 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Looks nice, but sitting this one out. Just don't have the room or budget for this and a OA with possible exploding leg to put it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrollphysicist Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) So...does this mean the 0A Mass Production preorders will come up next after this pack? Edited October 12, 2016 by thetrollphysicist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'll only be ordering one set.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Planning on one, most likely get two because I crack out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boobytrap Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Just one for me. Can't imagine myself displaying two VF-0's in armor at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anime52k8 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) Honestly, I think it's wishful thinking to expect anything under 20,000yen for this. Keep in mind the VF-0A/S had an msrp of 34,800yen. Going off what past GBP sets have cost compared to the toys they go on, somewhere between 60% and 80% of the base toy's MSRP is what we should be expecting.

ZorClone Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 since I don't have a VF-0 at all, will hope and wait to see if they bundle it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going off what past GBP sets have cost compared to the toys they go on, somewhere between 60% and 80% of the base toy's MSRP is what we should be expecting. I think it would be rather cheeky of Arcadia to ask anything at or over 20k for these parts.. seeing that they are more or less just static add on parts with minimal functionality, unlike a far more complex Valkyrie. I think a price tag of about 50% of what a Valkyrie is worth is far more acceptable. But yeah this is Arcadia we are talking about so everyone should expect the worst.. since I don't have a VF-0 at all, will hope and wait to see if they bundle it I can confidently say that I doubt that will happen..
