Those prices actually come quite close to the price when the Dollar to Yen exchange rate was less favourable, if FM were still selling their kit without adjusting the price (19000 Yen), it'll cost us a mere 160 Dollars.

Don't believe that FM destroyed their moulds or sold them to Revell, perhaps some but not all, the sprue bags have "Made in Japan" all over them. I reckon that such a hefty price owes much to the cost of importing the parts.

Yep, mine was 160+/-. Stupid crap. Still don't know what the big mess was over Bandai and those kits. I am buying doubles from Japan to have one to build and one for collecting. Revell can keep their overpriced junk.
