>>6240843>Is the VF-31 worth the aftermarket prices?Sorry for the late reply, anon!
If you really love the design, and the aftermarket you're looking at is Mandarake (where I think the VF-31 is going for ~22K JPY), then I do think it's worth it. It's a great representation of the valk and a very solid toy in its own right. Just in terms of overall execution it's just about the best valk Bandai has put out yet.
Wouldn't really recommend going too much past Mandarake's price though, unless you absolutely must have one.
>>6242307>Speaking of which, MyKombini has their pre-order up and it is indeed 50% deposit, not 100%Thanks so much for this heads-up anon, made my Lil' Draken preorder there when you posted it. Comes out a little cheaper than NY and only having to deposit %0% is pretty darn sweet.
>>6245874>considering that the 10th anniversary of frontier is coming, what are the chances for bandai to reissue the DX VF-25 valks?Hmm, unfortunately I don't think it'll happen. I imagine Bandai's factories capable of producing DX valks are tied up with churning out Delta's 31s and 262s, and the main VF-25s (the F and S model) have already been reissued a couple times, shrinking the available market (though I have no doubt they'd still sell like hotcakes, the 25S in particular).
Wouldn't rule it out though! The recent reissue of Alto's YF-29 was relatively unexpected, but again, at the time there were no Delta valks to keep Bandai busy.
