You can buy each of the girls seperately for 7350 yen.
There's also a combine package of the girls, the new CD set, and a deck of playing cards for 18900 Yen. Each comes with a bonus helmet. Also, Altlene comes with a gunblade, and Altine a pair of daggers.
Looks like they raised the prices on these two since the initial glimpse
7350 x 2 = 14700
18900 - 14700 = 4200
4200 Yen = $49.77 USD
... A $50 deck of playing cards?
Really?!
(Yes, I know, bonus helmets and CD set too. I don't count the helmets in the price though, so we're still talking one hell of an expensive set of playing cards)

Actually Pol, if you remembered to include the CD into that equation the CD alone is 4200. So the Deck of Cards are actually free.

Still, CDs are apparently quite expensive in Japan...

Pre-ordered through Yokatta... $271.71 USD worth of wallet pain, but I can atleast look forward to having them both.

No kidding!
I need to get Rossa for the comic. Viola I'd love to have, but... I dunno if I can swing it.
*sigh* And she'll only get more expensive and/or impossible to find on the secondary market.
And I've got a new bed I have to pay for, and I need a computer upgrade, and and and...

Altrene currently costs about 18000yen plus in Yahoo auction Japan and for around that price you can get these two repaints with extra bonuses. If you missed up on buying Altines and wanted to get her I think this would be a good decision to buy them though her color would be different but much more cheaper than Black Altines with her current price right now.
Since I already have both Altrene and Altines, I'm gonna pass on these two.

sorry for the confusion. when I said there were already 2 coming in November, I meant literally arriving in November, since they're late October releases they won't get here until then, etc.
the cd/card/bonus stuff is tempting but the price and release is too sudden for someone who's only wealthy during tax returns XD

Don't be scared, Ceta! Proxies are pretty easy to use, but crazy expensive... and they expect you to pay most of it (excluding shipping) up front. I can tell you from experience that TokyoHunter is a good one, though more expensive than most, and Yotakka Web has been polite so far in regards to the Ach and Yda reissues. If there's a next time, I plan on trying out Shopping Mall Japan, who I always hear awesome things about. Just shoot them an e-mail with the links you can find in this thread and they'll tell you where to send your PayPal funds to. As long as they get their money, they'll take care of everything, leaving you without a care in the world.
