In Japan the 2-pack runs for 572,000 yen, which is about USD 3,700 with the current exchange rate. As a US based (potential) buyer, not sure how I feel about 5,000…(or 5,300 on the square enix site)
Why do some companies put such heavy prices on their licenses. It just hampers the accessibility of their product. Some might discover Final Fantasy through other means than video games.
This looks so good but at that price point it would be tough for me to get in on these. I would need to unravel most of my existing POs on the 1/6 scale front which I just can't see taking so many NRD Ls. Just based on the measurements and a quick comparison it looks like (1) MAX 140+ moduspace case would do the trick to house both of them (wing config on Sephiroth) which if you don't have one is another $600+ shipped easily. Can't wait to see these in your collection Will in a few years. I'll have to live vicariously through you.
It’s insane for sure I got the bundle for $5000 waited a while for these…As for shipping I never have waited 3 months for boat I have ordered plenty with p1 and most I’ve waited was 1 1/2-2 months and that was with covid after covid on average 1 month I am in NY USA. So economy is the way
Cheaper to buy Cloud/Sephiroth bundle then purchasing DX separately. The FF6 1/6 statue had an edition size of 600. Probably going to be much larger edition size for these FF7 statues. If Prime 1 does the entire team it'll easily cost like 35k to 40k total 😬 Barrett is going to be huge!
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 🎅🏻 collector! Excited to see you get these and review. People need to realize Prime 1 is expensive and Prime 1 doesn’t care. They cater to a specific market and don’t apologize. I’ve rarely heard of P1 QC issues or poor representation of any character. Interested to hear Dean’s opinion. He mentioned in a live chat that he would sell things to get these. Do you see yourself canceling HT figures coming? Also people need to stop asking others what they do for a living or how much money they make.
Only way I buy this is if it’s on sale. For the people buying it right away… WHY??? They literally will have it up for months before announcing the edition size. Just wait. If it’s a super small ES, then I can see the price being justified. But this is the MOST POPULAR FF of all of them. A LOT of people want to buy these. But man, these prices are GRAIL statue prices for 1/4 scale. Value just isn’t there
They are using their "new polystone" on these guys detail does look better than other 1:4 gaming statues. Great statues, Square enix tax, expensive we'll see....
I had Prime1’s 1/3 2B from Nier on preorder but after seeing the QC issues and overall price, I cancelled the order and took a loss on the NRD but tbh I would’ve been pissed off and most likely lost more money if the thing arrived damaged so I’m gonna pass on these and just collect FF7 characters in 1/6.
Nah, that Terra/Tina statue was a work of art. The paint job alone blew these statues away. If have the money and was forced to pick only one (Cloud/Sepirothvs.Terra), I'll pick the Terra one even if it's a smaller scale. It definitely won't look small anyway.

These are great looking statues. The price is insane but at least you’ll have the best representation of the characters out there.
this was painful lol i was ready to put down 1.5 . now i hate square
$5,000 for 2 1/4 scale statues is insane. Even if they were 1/3 scale that would be ridiculous. The license must be ridiculously expensive.

what do you do for a living, is you rmoney from inheritance?
I'm an academic advisor. No inheritance here, no. I come from a middle class family.

I am really excited about these, but honestly, I am struggling to cope with the price

I’ll stick with the Play Arts Kai figures😅
It's dope but I'd rather have 10 Artisan/ inArt 1/6 figures for that same price (not that I could even afford that many right now 😂)

It's not all on p1 but on square enix
@ yeah no doubt it’s not a cheap license

Get the 1:4 dio instead. It’s much better.
@ does it have any QC issues? Ngl that kinda put me off Prime1.
@ I own a lot of P1 and have never had issues personally. I have the dio and there’s no QC issues. I got it at launch.
@ Yeah I have the Attack on Titan dio at launch and it arrived in perfect condition, thanks for telling me, I’m genuinely considering it
Holy smokes that is like USD 20,000 if you dont convert to my country's currency. Damn guess I'll stick with gametoys
Still a great option lol
Whatever floats your boat brother. But no collectible is worth $6000 in my opinion. I can think of several things I’d rather invest that money on.
Well it’s not for you then. It’s for someone that can afford it. Which would most likely be a millionaire that has money to waste
@@cj5476agreed this is a luxury items
5 grand?! FOH
Probably another grand for shipping . Then itll arrive broken
Im happy with my Game Toys hehe
The FFVI Terra/Tina statue was better and belongs to a museum.
Definitely not smaller scale and no justification for 13k lol
