    I hope GameToys follows through with their Chocobo, it was so much larger in size. Make it Yuffie's giant and impractical price-raising accessory.

    I've been making the parts for a Jessie. Using the game models for anything other than shape reference is a fool's errand, I've found its way faster to just start from scratch if you want a clean surface you can actually use.

    It's all buzz words. All "medical grade" even means is its safe to use for medical purposes (which just means you won't get sick from touching it). It is not an indicator of quality, even though it's used like one. And all these materials are damaged through stretching, there is no magic...

    If you're asking if anybody has mass produced a Cloud head, no, they haven't. You either get lucky and find someone willing to part with a GT head, or you grab one of the unpainted ones off ebay. There's two unpainted headsculpts on there, the one without the hair is just the game model, the one...

    Hopefully ToysEra's FF figures sell well enough that they might consider a Yuffie, but they're so far behind production and have gone pretty silent, so who knows.

    I was one of those suckers who bought the VTS Cloud, so I wound up paying like 800 bucks for the GT Remake Cloud+Daytona pack on ebay. Aside from the fact that a large chunk of that was the state sales tax ebay was required to add on top, I don't regret it. If you want something, and you can...

    I'd rather pay twice the MSRP a week or two after release from a domestic seller on ebay than deal with the stress of pre-ordering from an unproven company, especially if they're still taking pre-orders so long after everybody else has stopped.

    I had intended to pick up the set+the arms, but I'm not too broken up about not being able to. This release always felt to me like it was just a way to sell some excess stock and that probably explains the extremely limited availability. Shame for those of you who wanted this because you missed...

    The business model of selling one release with two heads and a second release without a head is objectively dumb, all it does is severely limit your potential customer base. Of course retailers don't want the risk.

    Still waiting on their Yuna, which they put up six months before Aerith.

    It just takes too long to release figures to warrant them constantly going back to Cloud. It's been like three, four years since they first showed off Tifa. In the meantime they've showed/teased Noctis, Aerith, Vincent, Yuna, AC Sephiroth, AC Tifa, Dress Cloud, Trooper Cloud, 2B and they're the...

    Where did you hear this? Everything up til now has suggested this is the standard 1st Class outfit, exactly what Zack wears just on a smaller body.

    No, she does a three point superhero pose during starshower. This is her new synergy skill with Red XIII. That's why she's doing a cat pose.

    The Jack-O pose was damn near canonized lol. Someone at Square is a fan.

    The ACG Tifa just looks more like an actual person. I definitely think GameToys version looks more like Tifa, it's just a little on the cartoony side. GameToys made the same creative choice with Cloud and Sephiroth of scaling up their eyes from the game model, and it's a choice I agree with, it...

    I'd be too worried about the scale. The GT line feels underscaled. You'd hope that any other companies would do the sensible thing and make their own figures to match the GT precedent, but you can never count on that.

    Definitely don't understand the logic of another Zack but not another Cloud. But I also don't think most of these "teases" will ever see a release. The Grunt Cloud might get a release since it doubles as a generic Shinra Grunt, but I doubt that Wall Market Dress Cloud will ever make it to the...

    I need a Yuffie figure like Yuffie needs Materia.

    A machine can't achieve the same results. Faces are intricate and require precise painting, and every face is different and has different requirements. It's not all airbrush, either. Most the fine details are only attainable with a standard brush. This is just how these kinds of figures have...

    They're painted in the factory, by factory workers, with brushes. Some companies have started using dot matrix "painting," which is basically done by blasting color out of a specialized machine, but you can tell when something is painted that way because up close you can see the individual...
