Arnval and Strarf MK 2 Repaints

[Canthros]

Well, that's a bunch of money I thought I was going to keep. Ah, well. 'sonly money.

I still want a set in the original colors, though.

I'm hearing a lot of people not liking Asuka. I know Skywarp is awesome and all, but Asuka has been asking for an update for a long time! I mean, sure, she's grounded and has a perm, but her colors are more vibrant than ever!

In all seriousness though, I really do like Strarf. Especially the pseudo scarf thing she's got goin' on. Her unarmored design kicks an unheard of amount of ass. You all thought the jacket look was cool? Now she's got a freaking blazer with a necktie. And that gun... I know Strarf traditionally focuses on swords, but it feels a little wrong for her to not have a proper firearm, even if it is more or less for her armor rather than her own personal sidearm. The Strarf hate (or, meh, in some cases) needs to stop, because the black hair on white armor is about a million times cooler than the mint green ever was. Just sayin'.

Strarf's colors are damn ugly, but unique as well. I don't have any black haired shinkis or weird colors like that. And Arnval's colors are perfect, though we already have plenty light purple haired girls. I think I'll pick these up since I sold my originals.

Yes! Retail releases! Missed on the exclusives and this is my chance to get the MKII's. The colors doesn't bother me much, I like both Strarf and Arnval color. I was saving money for new releases for next year didn't expect they would announce repaints of the MKII's but this is indeed good news.

New wings and gunblade for Arnval. With the tie, Strarf looks even more like what'shername from Valkyria Chronicles.

I'm thinking you're referring to Alicia Melchiott. Mmmm bread making Strarf...

I'm also one of the few who like the Strarf repaint. She looks so much better than her Mk1 repaint and her unarmored form has an "office lady" look that I'm really digging so this is a really big plus for me. I definitely plan to get both if possible.

oh hell yeah for retail release. AmiAmi gets these and it's on. I can't resist them if they're that easy to get. March is a good month for a release.

Whoa, original price for these 2 is 7000 yen. I wonder why they're so expensive?

Anyway pre-ordered both from Amiami. Thanks for the heads up Noodles.
