wow!!! its around 8-9k?why so expensive? Mainly because Macross fans eat it up in spite of the often ridiculuous price tags Yamato puts on their Valkyries. It looks great, but doesn't have any additional accessories to make it worth that price, other than the leg armors. Here's the dillema. Macross fans are anticipating the VF-0D variant because it's the most unique fighter design in the line of VF-0's. but in order for Yamato to make one, it will depend on the success of the VF-0S. If the VF-0S sells, I'm pretty sure Yamato will release the VF-0A next, possibly a re-color in between, then the VF-0D. So no matter how much we (that includes me) piss and moan about the price, most of us don't have any real choice but to buy it, if we want to see the other variants take shape, and you can expect higher price tags for those incoming variants too. Ugh! This is what makes toy collecting suck sometimes.  |

Bandai is actually very kind.
If you look into their SOC prices, Bandai is very consistent. Single SOC's are within the 3.5 to 5k range, while 'sets' (like the Getter Team) go for about 7K to 9K, and Combiners from 9K to 11K.
If you buy a single SOC and the pricetag is high, you can rest assured it's going to have tons of accessories with it (like the original GX-04, and the more recent GX-27 Gaiking).
Right now, the closest parallel I can think of for Yamato in terms of pricetag is Max Factory.

how much is this toy really? some say 8k. others 9k. much worst 10k. From the official Yamato Website, the VF-0S is tagged at JpY17,640. Converted to our currency, that's approximately PhP9200. That is just a rough conversion. It doesn't include other charges yet that are included by retailers. www.yamato-toys.com/items/detail.php?gid=879 |

Yes. Very!
Personally, I'd like to see Yamato eventually release the 1/60 VF-0D and possibly the SV-50/51 fighters from the Anti-UN forces.
Sadly, Yamato needs to see if the VF-0S will sell first, before it releases any more variants from the Macross Zero line.
