Looking at the releases:

Yamato VF-19Kai Fire,  May of 2011, MSRP 22,000 YEN
Yamato VF-19S Blazer,  November 2011, 22,000 YEN
Yamato VF-19F, August 2012, 22,000 YEN
Yamato VF-19P, December 2012, 22,000 YEN
Arcadia VF-19Kai + Sound Booster Gift-set,  September 2014, 34,800 YEN

It's been EIGHT years since it was released by Yamato. The Arcadia version was also a very small production run and even that was over four years ago.

Thanks jenius.

I was just trying to see why it's so difficult to locate a VF-19 Kai compared to the other VF-19 figures released by Yamato. The Kai was even rereleased by Arcadia like you mentioned. 

I see more S, F, and P than I do the Kai.

The Kai is definitely the iconic mech from the series and it was a well-liked toy so it seems we've finally hit the inflection point where, after years of being available below MSRP, it's becoming a collectible. That might help Bandai decide they should make one one day since the market is no longer saturated with excess Yamato stock.

Good point. Definitely interested if Bandai makes a DX fire valk :)
