YEESH! bump to the next page. whaa!?! that price proxy service has to pay tax so it's even more. only chance is if an import store officially carries it without ordering it through the arcadia web order. HLJ is our only hope as they did for Hikaru Premium but they included the tax and more for Roy Premium. nippon yasan i believe will have to pay the tax to web order and then charge a bit more for profit before selling to us.

Slave IV Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Let's say $20 an hour...it would take more than 6 hours to do that job so seems reasonable to me. Of course I'd rather pay less but this is Macross we're dealing with, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F360 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Price is 53784 (tax included). http://arcadia.ac/products/detail.php?product_id=254 Proxy service or stores will be paying that price , so you will be paying that price plus fees.

gingaio Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) Sheesh. With shipping and otaku tax, it'll be closer to $550 to $600. Who am I kidding. I'm preordering as soon as it goes up. Though honestly, I'd pay more if Bandai ever releases the version it teased a while back. I'd rather have that DX version, and the usual Bandai quality.

F360 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 So the new date on the product page is now * Order closing date: September 7, 2017 at 16 PM so did they mess up and should be the start date/time instead of closing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcadia's site still lists April 2018 as the release date. And boy, it's expensive, but I think I'll shoot for the moon on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

technoblue Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 49800 / 8 = 6225 JPY (w/out tax) Around the cost of eight Figmas or SH Figuarts...Must focus... 2 minutes ago, Mommar said: Well... maybe? That's the release date, when is the pre-order up and do we have to pay upfront? Arcadia notes that orders are opening at 4pm August 22, Japan time. Orders are closing September 7. If the usual stores elect to carry this as well, we should see those pre-orders pop up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no3Ljm Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 As expected, price is high. For a premium one, it's still cheaper than what we can find at ebay and YJA. Since I don't have the Yamato version from before, I'm not gonna complain. Imagine, if some of you guys including me bought one from aftermarket ($800-1000) two years ago, we're probably banging our heads right now.
