Not sure if this is for all FF's (maybe we'll get news on Cid and Barret?) or just XII, as info is slim.

However, for a prototype it looks rather nice....

Dat ass.

Telcontar tipped me on this on Skype - should have put 'Fran' in the title and you'd see me blow up

It looks like Tifa is next:

LicoriceAllsorts · 05/17/2014

Are these the big ones, like the recent Rufus?

Tennyo · 05/17/2014

Fuck damn it. Why am I poor and already a hoarder. I want these but I caaaaan't.

I believe so.

Bigger Tifa pics:

Wonder if we'll see Cid or Barret...odd that they never mentioned AC Tifa, yet here she is. And still no Red XIII release.

Hisako · 05/19/2014

Well since they already had full-size Play Arts Kai for Rufus, Vincent, and Yuffie it was only a matter of time before the rest of the VII cast started coming out. I think it's not a matter of if, but when.

That said, while I absolutely adore Play Arts Kai figures and I think they're some of the most flexible, posable designs on the market (with insane, excellent detail to boot), weird horseshit jobs like that Yuffie figure prevent me from buying them ever on a frequent basis besides as a collaborative birthday gift.

"Horseshit" job is harsh, I suppose - and almost every preview sculpt that's come out looks absolutely impeccable - but sometimes the manufacturers make the strangest decisions with the paint and production has churned out some very, very odd-looking figures. Skin tones have often been a common point of criticism (re: the "orange face") - the Street Fighter ones had the same problem, and on the Mass Effect ones some of the skin tones came out like someone had smeared dirt over the figure during the paint process.

In general, quality varies quite a bit (and plenty of anecdotes can be found of missing paint), especially for a poseable at the price points that Square Enix sell them at (though many figurines often have an asking price far above PAKs). Still, when the stars align on the QC aspect, the majority of purchases I've made have been nothing but excellent on all fronts.

About time they gave everyone's favourite bunny girl the Play Arts treatment. ^^

If they're making another Tifa figure, I would've preferred something new, like her blue mini dress or the cowgirl outfit. Not the overrated Rinoa Mk. II again.

Octo · 05/20/2014

Tifa got her boobs redone eh?

Omega · 05/20/2014

Well, after 15 years, it's hardly fair to expect them to still look the same

Now that you direct attention to her boobs, I notice they pop out significantly more than they did in AC.

...How amusing it is that I did not bother to look at Tifa's boobs in this model until somebody else spoke about them first.
