Oh heavens YES! Regular release! DO WANT!

...I feel terrible with how many preorders I have but daaamn. They look gorgeous.

Of course, now I'm debating getting the dengeki versions of the sword girls too because now I'm starting a good army of black and white girls. Not as amazing as people who have all the arnvals and strarfs but I've still managed Arnval1, Altines/Altlene, Werkstra and Valona (+Werkstra repaint) and now the sword girls and these two... and then Renge/Gabrine have a very black-and-white motif too. Oh my!

DO WANT.

Even better at a March release, as Proxima and Celes come in January! I already have one albino Arnval, but I could always do with more :D Looks like this gamble paid off :x

i just.... cant believe what i'm seeing.... retail repaints? that's CRAZY!

i cant deny i'm liking both a LOT!

and finally arnval mk2 has WINGS!!!

now that i noticed the wings are pretty much the same as v1/tranche.... but with an overall different shape.... that's cool!
(no, i'm not contradicting myself, just look at the wings with enough attention to detail and you'll see similarities)

now the colors...

well... i guess that's someting i might get used to eventually....

Hang on a minute, am I reading this right or does the hobbystock page have them actually listed as 7,350 yen each, that the 6250 is a preorder price?

Alright... Pyaamon's gamble payed off, so I'm gonna make one, too. The extra parts are great, but I'm gonna wait until we get the enhanced parts sets in White Arnval and Black Strarf. I have a long-standing tradition of not falling for repaints. Not counting Altines here; she's a whole different character.

OMG, I so want that repaint of Arnval Mk2!

The repaint of Strarf Mk2? Pass. The black hair and the color scheme looks awful on her. Would have been nice if she looked more like the white "Angel" Strarf Bis repaint.

Wow... this is great news. I was hoping they would release these, and sooner than I thought too.
I love the strarf mkII design. Even if the colors arent as cool as the original version, the repaint is excellent none the less. How about the red necktie ?! Like everyone else I already have quite a few shinkis pre-ordered. Im happy I'll be able to add these to the list... hopefully amiami has them soon. I'll be wringing out the last pennies from my soon to be emaciated wallet, but I cant resist.
