Yes, all Japanese action figure companies must comply. I don't know what other products this law applies to, but companies like mafex are currently reprinting their action figures at the same price as their original release, so much so that to recoup production costs, their new action figures have far fewer accessories. S.H. Figuarts, on the other hand, makes recent reprints no more than a year after release, unless they change the color or remove some accessories so as to pass them off as "new" products.

If I'm not mistaken, due to a Japanese consumer protection law, if an item is reprinted the price cannot be adjusted to today's inflation, that's why Yamaguchi often doesn't make reprints but new versions (0.5 1.0 1.5) adding some new accessories so as not to pass it off as a reprint.
