Star Citizen F8C Lightning model kit moves to November in Japan

Kotobukiya has moved the 1/100 F8C Lightning assembly kit from October to November 2026 in Japan; overseas listings have their own dates and availability.

The 1/100 Anvil F8C Lightning Plastic Model Kit Ver. is now scheduled for November 2026 in Japan, one month later than its October slot. Kotobukiya included the Star Citizen collectible in its September 25 release-month rescheduling notice, and the Japanese product page reflects the new month. This is the GN212 kit

that requires assembly , not the separate pre-assembled F8C product. Kotobukiya lists the kit at ¥12,100 for Japan , at 1:100 scale and approximately 256 mm long . The US storefront description describes snap-fit, colour-moulded parts and an included LED unit. Those are advertised product specifications; the sample

images may show painted parts. Check your own retailer's date before planning a purchase. Kotobukiya's US listing currently displays December 2026 and Sold out / Unavailable , so it does not establish an open US preorder. Gundam Planet shows a November 2026 estimated North American arrival , explicitly warning that the

estimate may slip. The Japanese reschedule is confirmed for Japan; neither retailer listing guarantees a global release date, stock or shipping time.
