Zeiss 8x25 Terra ED Compact Binocular

It's no secret that these are hard to come by. Every stateside supplier has them on back-order --- They are better quality than the price would suggest for pocket bins, and the demand has been good because they fill a gap for portability and casual use.

All the suppliers are saying that these will be back on the shelf in a few weeks --- My question is , do you think they will arrive the same as the old ones or will there be changes? Changes in quality --- Still made in Japan ---?
or something new all together since they just revamped the Victory compacts --- Does anyone have the inside track on this ?

Jerry may have answered my question on another thread --- I was just concerned if they will still be made in Japan---

I just placed an order with OP for a pair as the net cost yesterday (4/1) was $225 shipped, no tax due to a 10% off coupon for April Fool's. They stated they were expecting 20 pairs this week of which 15 (including my order) were spoken for.

I have zero need for them having a 10x25 Victory but I couldn't resist after reading all the glowing reviews. If these new ones don't meet expectations, it's a free return to OP.

I'll post my thoughts when they arrive.
