Action Figure Final Fantasy VII Remake Collectibles

Man, I've never been particularly huge on Zack as a character, but GT's effort is giving me serious FOMO. They're on a different level.

The VTS one is plainly not even in the same ballpark, but gotta give it to 'em, it's definitely better than their Cloud. Shame they never bothered changing the head for AC Cloud.

only gonna get worse with part 2 and the CC remake man, I warned you. WE warned you, better hunt Aliexpress ASAP!

Still looks off to me. The younger head is a lot better but I’m not sure if it’s just me but older Zack looks a little cross eyes looking up. Still not fully sold on the GT version of Zack unfortunately I don’t think he’s as accurate to everything else they’ve done. Maybe like Sephiroth we’ll get a V2 with the remake sword and a better face since this is the Crisis Core version

I slightly agree but I feel as though it adds salt to GT's wounds to discuss the eyes of Zack after their trial and error with getting the printing correct after many failures - I think in hand he will look amazing and I think he definitely will photograph better from certain angles

Sculpt looks fine to me, no point in being too over critical. This will be the best representation we'll ever see in 1/6th scale.

I think us GT fans are absolutely spoiled with quality.

Well that’s the thing. Both Clouds, Sephiroth, Tifa, Aerith Noctic etc have all looked one to one to their game counterpart and Zack is the only one that’s off. Not really a complaint just more bummed out than anything. Obviously this is the best version of him out there but that doesn’t change the fact that the face is off regardless and that’s the biggest things these figures depend on. Just bummed since I got into the line after the Zack announcement but more than likely pulling out now

I understand your frustrations, but arguably this Zack looks great. The angle of the photo did him no justice. The younger sculpt just plainly looks better. There's a difference between the straight forward look of the younger sculpt and the slightly side-glanced look of the older sculpt. Maybe that is what you don't like. I think they will continue to only get better from here on and I think it's only recommended you stay with GT as not only are these figures such high quality, but they are worth their weight in gold if you do decide to sell them. But as always, you do you, friend. I'm just lucky if I receive mine! (Prisoner of TW)

Honestly.. it sounds like you are feeling a classic case of diminishing returns via entitlement due to the incredibly high bar Gametoys has and continues to set.

I can only think back to when Crisis Core was released I never even considered that a sixth scale of this magnitude would one day exist readily available to the consumer.

I think, while it’s important to maintain perspective, that’s really more to avoid unfair mass critiques that will negatively affect the brand and product.

When it comes to just one person being bummed, even if you think it’s a matter of “never being satisfied”, it’s the people like that which push brands and artisans to forever outdo themselves. I think Zack looks great, and that it would harsh my buzz for me to point out what I don’t like when I’d rather just be excited, so I’m glad OTHER people are pointing it out so that I can be excited but there’s still honest feedback lmao

Meanwhile The Boss was informed of the criticism and has pushed back the release to September....2023

 

[walter88]

well，you all can said any opinion/comment regarding the figure.
gt boss aldy expected and willing to accept all criticism.afterall he is doing business.

he adly said this：I cant make every potential buyer 100% satisfy ，if I need to change the setting when different buyer voice out their criticism，it would take longer /unlimited time to release the figure.

Buy if you like it. Thats all. Not satisfy regarding the headsculpt and really wanted the character？feel free to look for custom made headsculpt but i personally think even high priced custom made wont match 100%，and we talking about 400usd minimum just for a head.

so I choose the best item in the market. which come in fullset.

 

[yasuo]

gametoys zack. i know i know，within this month.

First things first, both headsculpts look great.

But the main caveat is the angle the headsculpts are taken at. Younger version is face on for one of them while the older version has all the headsculpts facing various directions except straight into the camera lens. Coupled with phone camera lighting quality and its easy to feel like something is off.

Wait till the official photos by various bloggers/toy reviewers before you start putting in your complaints.

I don't thikn he's cross eyed, that's more up to the angle of the shot I think, the eye print is pretty nice now. I cannot place exactly why the older head looks slightly off. I think it's maybe the shape of the chin/jaw, young Zack is perfect, but on older Zack it seems to be a lot bigger throwing off the proportion of the face/mouth.

Looks great to me. Not sure what the complaint is about. Looks in line with their Cloud and Sephiroth.

The lower angle on these photos aren't helping of course but not really seeing what's so off about it.

Personally, though maybe the earlier poster is talking abt something completely different, I think because the older sculpt has a squarer/broader jaw that the lower angle is creating the illusion that the facial features sit too small on the face and that the head is too round. I bet the same sculpt photographed at a higher angle would look

looking at the above in game render, I definitely stand by the jaw being too big, but it might just be the lens as sometiems the lens+ angel can distort the subject matter. It's still 90% there, and I'm happy to wait as long as they update us with progress, but I feel liek it's slightly worse than Clou and Seph, and doubly strange because the young head is perfectly spot on.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Even the PAK has slightly wider jaws, but it's not on the same league as this, of course.

The Zack will probably be like Sephiroth in that it's a quick photo at a bad angle and not so great lighting where Sephiroth exhibits a bit of a chin as well (and I even mentioned it in my own video briefly) but it's not a huge issue. In fact, I think I take more issue with the sideburns being sculpted flush to the jaw and not anything trailing further. Sniff.

Tha is a perfect Zack to me

[willy156]

Excited for all those waiting for Zack
Now bring on that tifa pre order!

 

[dailove0]

Jack's face is so perfect. Release it right now.

Yeah! I remember thinking “he looks great but his jaw is kind of…..” about some of the pictures, and being worried it was a case-by-case issue until I got it in hand and realized that some heads just have angles that don’t look as nice, which then can get heavily exacerbated by bad lighting. Like human heads! lmao
