Action Figure Final Fantasy VII Remake Collectibles

£30 for a sofubi is actually not bad. No place for it in my collection but glad they exist.

So I ordered a second set of 1st Class arms just in case anything ever happens and noticed a couple differences from the initial batch.

First, the skin tone is not as pale and doesn't match the AC head.
Second, the veinwork is different. The first batch had blue veins with no actual sculpting. The veins on the second batch have no color and bulge out.

not sure if other people experience the color issue, but I preferred the veins of the initial batch more...

Well the socket size is too big for the remake body and it doesn't have the bandage wrapping, so I'm guessing it's the 1st class skeleton with the remake silicone part... not quite a "defect" but I wonder if I can return this to OSK?

It's entirely possible I'm mistaken as I don't have a first batch arm to compare it to, but my second batch arms look more like the ones on the left here, to my eye. They at least seem to match his face skintone, again to my eye. So you may have gotten a bad set?

I just opened my extra set of 1st Class arms from Gundamit and I have the same problem. Compared to the first set of arms that I got back in June, this silicone looks too tan and doesn't match the AC Cloud headsculpt as well as the first batch of these, which match perfectly. The veins don't look as good either.

If I didn't have the first set to compare with, I probably wouldn't have noticed, but it definitely stands out now. I wonder what happened, seems like GT didn't mix the silicone paint exactly the same this time around.

Luckily, I bought these as just a backup pair so hopefully I won't have to use them.

Seeing other people's uploaded pics and videos, it seems the case for the batch. The fact that the veins are sculpted makes me think it's more than just a paint mix issue...

It's better than having damaged arms, but I hope I won't need them as well.

(Left: first batch. Center: second batch. Right: original remake)

Yep, that's what mine looks like as well and I confirmed that the packaging was for the correct 1st Class batch for the AC head.

I almost looks like they were testing out some new stuff, perhaps for a future Noctis release, and decided to use that silicone/vein technique on these.

Hmm, are these arms the set A ones?

Yep, set A for GT-006 AC version.

 

[Khaos]

It must be a packaging error? They match Remake better than Remake's original. Somebody got sleepy in the factory and put a bunch into the wrong box... maybe

I don't have arms from the first batch to compare them to, but my second batch arms look exactly the same as the Advent body and match the headsculpt just fine to me.

The pegs for set A and B are different widths. The set I got won't fit the remake body, and don't have the white wrapping.

the color looks better here, but the veins are different from the original so maybe it's a combination of a different design and QC

Wow. That sculpt is perfection.

Holy hell. Hoping not too much of a downgrade on the sculpt when it’s mass produced. Did we ever find out about the bonus with Kit?

It looks soo good I ended up pre ordering one. I hope there isn't much of a downgrade as well. They will make one with her regular outfit as well right? If it comes out well, I would definitely get one with her normal outfit too.

Went with deluxe and will probably use it on the gametoys body

 

[Tosh]

give me exactly that prototype head sculpt + her normal outfit and we have a clear winner.

 

[dominishin]

Think I still prefer GT's updated version. The paint and hair looks sharper/cleaner and the eyes have much more depth to them.

But we'll see, I have both ordered anyways.

This exactly. I do not know why this is taking so long!! Let's go!

I’m taking this video as a good sign we should hopefully see Toys Era Aerith and the Star Man figures get dropped soon. High on cope

Acg Tifa update

ACG head sculpt is actually perfect

 

[Nemi]

Acg Tifa update

The ACG headsculpt looks perfect, I've pre-ordered the deluxe edition and now I can't wait
I've also pre-ordered the Gametoys Tifa, I do think the updated headsculpt on that one is perfect too, just with a different expression
Now it's just waiting and waiting to get to see them both irl...lol
