DownIsUp Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 22 minutes ago, no3Ljm said: Why it's $302.58? Using today's conversion rate, HLJ's Y36800 price should be just around US$254.97. If you're not too picky, Mandarake has an opened one for Y35000. Amazon Japan on the other hand has it for Y32384. So thanks to your help I discovered the prices are hugely marked up if you set the site to USD and not Yen. With a coupon it'll come out to just over 33,000 yen. Thanks for the tips on Mandarake and Amazon, I'll have to compare shipping costs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But release is right next month, so wonder if these are just existing stocks.. But you could still get the existing release from AmazonJP at much lower price lol.

For what it's worth, the only one I see on AmazonJP is at 51k yen shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKT Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) I am seeing list price Yen 30,904 shipped & sold by Amazon JP themselves. But Amazon JP is sometimes funny like that; shows different results based on one's location. Edited January 14, 2023 by MKT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous listing has been out of stock for a few months though, so make of it what you will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daBlah! Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Notification today for the payment received from HLJ for Nora reissue. https://www.hlj.com/1-60-scale-complete-transformation-sv-51-gamma-nora-polyansky-boarding-machine-final-battle-specification-reissue-aca82158-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacrossJunkie Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 I don't get why they've done reissues on both SV-51s but something like the 0S has not had one (that I know of anyway) since the release of the premium finish version. I would love to get another one (premium or not) to put in the reactive armor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a premium premium finish version 0S with all the weathering effects like the 0D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were, it would be just about the fastest turnaround time of 1-month from PO to delivery lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenius Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Maybe this is how Arcadia unloads the stock they held back to resolve customer service issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds most plausible. They have been doing this for the past few releases, including the Garlands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolt Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Please keep buying those Arcadia "re issues" so we can finally get the VF-5000G. 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
