Surprised it's still available at AE. It's going for cheaper than when CM's version was originally release thanks to the strong US dollar.

Mine just arrived from AE. After four years, I finally get to see what's the fuss about on this figure. Can't wait to open it up. The box art looks pretty darn great.
I find it interesting that Arcadia didn't even put their logo on the box. There is just tiny text that tells one Arcadia is the maker. Hopefully Uchu Gokin will make more great products. AE is the exclusive Japanese carrier in Japan.

Congrats! I guess just like me you need to buy the big shooter and option parts too which together would be almost $500 with prices now.

I want to get one as the price is really good from AE. How much was your shipping cost to the US and did you use EMS, Locidm?
Thanks.

I paid 4000 yen for EMS, so like $32 USD. I just wanted the panzeroid. Option parts don't interest me. Big shooter is cool but I got no space for it anyways. So I'm done with finding Jeeg.

Well, as you probably already know, the parts are fully compatible with Arcadia's Jeeg just like all Yamato's Super/Strike/Armor Parts for ver 2 1/60 VF-1 Valkyries are compatible with Arcadia's VF-1 1/60 Valks

I have to say I have no regrets getting this jeeg reissue. I just love the weight on this thing and I love the chubby look! The thigh magnets feel a bit floppy but the legs are on the heavy side too which might be the reason why it flops but when trying the to pull off the legs it feels strong. I was gonna buy the soc gaogaigar but this figure just has more appeal to me so ill get the soc next month. Right now I'm fighting with myself into getting the cm shooter and upgrade parts! lol

Right now I'm fighting with myself into getting the cm shooter and upgrade parts! lol Stop fighting and get them while they're still available at not so bad prices. Once the supplies dry up then prices are going to get ridiculous. =) I think Arcadia's going to release a Jeeg that comes with the Big shooter but I'm not sure if they're going to release it separately.

Lol I'll probably wait for the arcadia version if it's released. I just can't buy a cm big shooter for now since im gunning for a max factory godannar this month lol.

You can always 3D print one. Yeah but my model was for the zpro jeeg cause it didn't have it's own big shooter lol. I think I've been bitten by the Jeeg bug! If anyone needs to print a simple display base I already have one uploaded at thingiverse where you can download it. www.thingiverse.com/thing:770057

To any bros who has both, Is there ANY difference between Arcadia and CMs release? Besides the outer cardboard box....

i havent had them both but i had the arcadia version and sold it. i didnt like it at all. it wasnt very stable plus he couldnt do tge knee bend pose when firing his knuckle. the other version has additional pieces to be able to do it. i wish inhad gotten that one instead. in hindsight i didnt need all those accessories or the horse either.

I got all the CMs albeit they are all different color version. The metallic big shooter, the normal colored accessory set, and the main jeeg set in black version...lol
You' re right about some of the issues pointed out and it applies to CMs too. I dont recall seperate piece for kneel knuckle shooting for my black version. But that version also lacked Pantheroid....
I asked for comparasing because i just picked up thlast copy of Arcadia normal color from EEs at crazy $157 shipped.

Still, i feel CMs Jeeg is their crown jewel ....their the best effort.
I own few CMs and they all have their issues. Grendy being their very worse. Out of the ones that i own anyway. Griffen is a joke when it comes to just standing.....far worse then Jeeg.
