Square Enix Play Arts Kai Gets New Licenses

[Snake Plissken]

I'll get them if they reissued them. I won't miss out on the new FFVII figures though.

Yes please don't make the same mistake, hell those may end up being harder to get than MGS.

 

[Science Friction]

Yeah, jump on the FFVII figures krec. They're making Red XIII, Cid, and Barrett. That's the next volume. Then Cloud and Sephiroth, and I think tentatively Tifa are the third volume. No idea yet on anything else, but they sound like they are making the whole cast.

If they reissue the MGS1 figures I'll buy more. I could use them for custom stuff and just good old extras. I love having multiple display options.

dont forget about revo raiden too. i also preordered a set of the udf 20th figures since 2 of mine were bootleg. heres my raidens:

 

[Snake Plissken]

The tripods are going to be stuck with many retailers.

 

[Science Friction]

The PAK MGR Raidens are awesome, you guys have great display. I'm not into the Revoltech stuff really. MGR Raiden would have been a lot cooler to me if he had a second head without the cyborg alterations, like he does earlier in the game. At least from the trailers I've seen he does, I haven't gotten it yet. Been so busy.

Are there PAK scale tripods out?

also look at the pics i posted

 

[Science Friction]

Those look sweet. I wasn't sure what the scale was since I'm not familiar with them really, just vaguely from the game trailer. You guys like them then?

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

i know i do. i dont think the price is too much on them.

btw plis, why do you say theyll sit? with all these raiden variations, theyll go. also they work with the medicom snake. im sure hot toys will make old snake too. they can be used in multiple places.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Eh they're alright, I still have yet to actually display mine. At some point I'll make a Mistral Staff out of them to go along with my Murasama custom.

 

[Science Friction]

I'll have to get some of those soon, darn. I still need to get MSR Raiden and Solidus Snake though. Crud.. darn DC Comic Variant figures, lol. I might have to put off getting all of those for awhile. I hope they don't sell out too fast, I'm worried b/c they've already started selling out on Amiami and Amazon Llc. sold out of Batman. I have Batman & GL and just waiting on WW to process. If I just get Flash and Superman next that won't be too bad. ..Hmm.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

i wont make the staff without the knives. i have to craft some. i got the paint. the tripods actually would have to be sacrificed as that forever because youd have to make a even balled peg out of the uneven ones in the shoulders and youd have to glue them together to make them stay. i might get some plastic card to make the knives pretty soon, i probably have the material for them kicking around the house. if i do ill send you a set they should be mindless to create.

Did Leon and Helena come out yet? Curious if they turned out better than the promotional shots. Helena was looking pretty wonky.

 

[Science Friction]

Nope, not yet. Amiami still says mid-October for them. I'm really interested in getting Leon. I want him to sell really well in hopes of getting a RE2 or RE4 version. I feel like SQEX would do that if they wanted (or Capcom permitting), since they are fine digging into game back catalogs.

 

[Monger]

I wish PAK had a more competitive aftermarket. I feel like the figures for some reason just come out without much hype so they stay static price wise with the exception of a few here and there. Seriously it seems like they always go for around retail. I guess that's good for Square Enix, but it's kind of annoying for me because I always want to swoop in and get a good deal later

One of these days I need to man up and just buy a huge order of PAK. Probably Leon, Helena, Sakura, Ibuki, Cammy, and all the MGS ones of which go for a lot

 

[Science Friction]

That's pretty much what I've done Monger. Just decided to go ahead and buy them up now before the lines get too much bigger, or too expensive on the after market.

I'm not sure how much DC stuff I'll get. I might just get end up getting Batman, GL, Superman, and Aquaman at this point.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

i know, when the mgs figures came out it was like your finger went through the toilet paper. you came up with numerous reasons why you shouldnt get them. i remember. its time to come to the darkside....................

 

[Science Friction]

It's the best darkside ever.

 

[Science Friction]

I got Ryu today, he's pretty awesome! Mine has some splotchy paint on the neutral face but it's not too bad. He's pretty much perfect overall. I don't know why I didn't realize he was awesome before now.. he really does look incredible and is hands down the best Ryu figure yet.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Ken looks taller.

I'm relieved Hot Toys is making RE6 figures now too. I'd hate for the Play Arts ones to come out like crap (if their faces are all shadowy and dark) and not have any other merchandise.
