Sounds hideously overpriced.  Did you check out how many bridges it has?  Some of them are over $100 a piece.

Ok, easy as pie:

License to AInc is $200
Cost of a Peg G3 is 299euro
Ok, I'll make my A1-G3 for $599!

Best guess, based on how much Mai charged for the teron in batches of 5-20 when I priced them out a few years back compared to how much the A1 is adding in a 10% profit margin.
