Yea, I have faith GT will deliver an awesome product, I think the prototype pics were a bit rushed tbh. I still like Star Man though!! Tifa barbie!!

Superduck is bad too, I'd just say atm sadly there isn't one. But I hope (and suspect) that GT will get theirs right when it finally comes (given that it's also a bit weird and off atm in the proto), so I'll wait for that personally. I mean fair enough if people just want something to represent the character, I used to do that, but these days would rather wait hopefully for something better..

I have the super duck headsculpt at the moment, it's not accurate but it's good enough for the time being.

This is Tifas ingame model. Lets be honest, literally 0 of all the available 1:6, 1:4, 1:3 or even 1:1 statues, figurines or dolls
look like this. Not even in the 90-99% range in terms of accuracy. The best of them have like a 80% accuracy.

STAR MAN : 1/6 Tifa Lockhart Action Figure

Product number: MS-010A (white tank top and black short skirt version)
Product number: MS-010B (Purple Tight Strap Dress Edition)

Ordered both tbh. Gonna be at least 18 months before GT Tifa. Should have that Super Duck Yuffie and Toys Era Aerith out by end of this year so that’s my gang complete with Cloud.

the jack-o-pose statue has a pretty good face, but a very **** statue lol

If it's got synthetic doll hair, I don't give it a second look. I'll gladly put skinny white Barret on my shelf before I go anywhere near cheap frizzy "hair."

In my personal opinion, facial expression plays a huge role when it comes to people being able to "see" the character. For example, it is often said that majority of the head sculpts of Tifa available are based on actual ripped 3D game model. Majority of the time, a 3D game model has a neutral facial expression so that there will be a "base" where different facial expressions can come from and return to when the character gets animated in real time in the game. Tifa is a character who is well known for her very gentle smile, specifically the way her eyebrows are slightly raised as she smiles. When she's in her neutral face, she definitely doesn't exude that Tifa aura. The head sculpt makers should spend time modifying the model to give her a proper facial expression then.

I hope 1/6 scale toys would copy how 1/12 toys usually do it. There are different faces or heads included that have different facial expressions. Most 1/6 scale toys I see only have one expression, and it's usually neutral. Having a variety of facial expressions would make them more fun to pose, plus action scenes or certain scenes can have more sense. For example, if Cloud had a gritting teeth face or shouting face, pictures or videos of him posed trying to crush Sephiroth with his giant sword would look more lively and action packed. With just a neutral face, he looks bored fighting his ultimate nemesis. Tifa would also benefit from multiple faces/heads. She can have her gentle smiling face, a shouting face for when she's attacking, and a serious face when she's just getting ready to battle. Maybe just having "face plates" instead of entire new head sculpts would make production cheaper as well, and having interchangeable face plates don't really detract from the look of the head because just like with the Figuarts toys, there won't be gaps visible if they properly engineer it.

For $70 for 1/12 I’m getting it. Looks better articulated than that 1/12 AC Cloud.

This is my fav, she looks so cute and pretty. Where is she? Already released or upcoming?

P.S. New Tifa looks nice but low key reminds me that 1/3 *** doll they released while ago. Not for me.

 

[Akiratang]

Funnily enough there was a life size Tifa that actually had a really good likeness . But Tbh I think any Tifa with Rooted hair looks abit like a *** doll lol.

Do you guys think GT will update their Tifa proto HS?

We will find out in 4 years

 

[willy156]

forgot to mention, ACG's Tifa is a purple dress version

I can't decide what I think of this Star Man version... hmm. Some angles seem ok. I have essentially no experience with these things, and that non-sculpted hair does scare me a bit. Seems like it would look really cheap and be all over the place. Maybe it could be put in a ponytail or something.

They need to include a magnetic faceplate to swap out that haystack hair with a sculpted one. xD

Seen that on FB, apparently the source come from the GT group in a china app called QQ.
@walter88 is it true??
