BANDAI SPIRITS' Collectibles Division has announced that the "DX Chogokin VF-1J Armor Parts Set -STORE LIMITED EDITION-" will be released in April 2027. The price is 17,600 yen (including tax), and it will be sold exclusively through Tamashii Web Shop.
This set is based on "Macross" and must be installed on the separately sold Japan-exclusive "DX Chogokin VF-1J Valkyrie" model to transform the base unit into the Armored Valkyrie form. The product itself is not a complete VF-1J unit, so please confirm compatibility before purchasing.
The armor hatches on the set can open and close. It also includes head parts to recreate the gray visor appearance, a cockpit seat for piloting, and a pilot figure. Collectors who already own the corresponding DX Chogokin main body can use this set to complete the heavy armor look and adjust their model's display style.
Currently announced information includes the planned release month, price including tax, Tamashii Web Shop exclusivity, and main accessories. Details such as the pre-order start date, specific shipping date, stock quantity, and overseas sales arrangements have not yet been clarified.
