Hmm, interesting. Where could this China model be bought?

Haven't looked into this but I guess it will be sold through the official Sony store on jd.com or taobao.com

It's a very nice hardware but I do think that for them producing more it will hurt the value because I don't see why someone would pay extra just because it has a number when they could buy the same exact item without it. Look at retro city rampage dx for example. They produced a run of 2000 I believe so they were selling for $100 plus on eBay. Now they made an unlimited quantity, so now you could buy the first release for $50 on ebay or just buy the re-release for $30, but nevertheless congratulations you have an amazing item.

Is there a release date for the 2 year anniversary edition?

Unless they lower the price I don't care. They keep selling them for $899 which is the the same price level as for initial numbered limited run of 25.

Regarding the China model 2nd Anniversary I don't know. I was not even able to read through the pages to which 0329liuken refers

i think the 2 year China anniversary PS4 special edition is "bizarre" to be celebrating a 2 year mark..it does'nt really ring a bell as an auspicious occasion unless there is more significance and meaning in Chinese culture for the number 2 or 2 years in general. plus why are people soo hung up on the 25th anniversary playstation 4 colorware edition? it is an AFTERMARKET, 3RD PARTY, UNLICENSED INDEPENDENT UNOFFICIAL edition...anyone can paint it gray, and get some professional paint shop to add and replicate the finishing touches..thats why i'm a little baffled, by all the "noise" surrounding this so called "25th anniversary" edition PS4 PRO..although i will admit, it is a good paint finish..but the price for an aftermarket CUSTOM PAINT is not worth it to me.

Did someone call them as 25th Anniversary? Because they are not. They were and still are announced as PS4 Pro Retro and the number 25 is connected only to the fact they announced that only 25 pieces will be made, individually numbered. They, however, decided to increase the production after that the first batch was sold out quite fast.

I personally bought it for several reasons - first one is that I take Colorware as number one besides other companies involved into custom made business. Aren't they who are signed under majority (if not every) custom made consoles intended for various competitions, prizes etc.? From this point of view I take them as professionals even though maybe every single painter know how to use grey spray.

Second reason was that I was about to buy PS4 Pro for myself and did not want just standard black color. I hoped for some limited edition made by Sony, if no sooner then at the latest at launch of Horizon Zero Dawn. Unfortunatelly it did not happen.

Last but not least, the Retro style is pretty nice and the signs of it are as close as possible to the original Playstation. This together with fact the first 25 pieces were individually numbered made me to buy it even though it would be very difficult for me to solve any warranty issues, which I hope doesn't happen.
