figure-culture in Japan
Do you know Kaiyudo? Kaiyudo is a company of (making / planning) figures most famous for Japan.
http://www.jinjapan.org/nipponia/nipponia16/spot01.html Japanese people like figures. figures of the character of Final Fantasy was also sold as a bottle cap of Coca-Cola. http://www.iris.dti.ne.jp/~spec/game...1a/ff10_fg.jpg http://ffalpha.com/ff9/images/screenshots/coca-cola.jpg |
I collect FF figures. I have a series of figures from FFX, as well as all of the character figures from FFVIII. And one of my favorites ... my Sephiroth figure!
http://www.oddworld.au.com/misc/images/ffvii-ffx.jpg http://www.oddworld.au.com/misc/images/ffviii.jpg I want to get those Coca Cola figures so bad though!!! Those figures are just so awesome. I would love to buy the entire FFX set in particular, but have yet to locate a place where I can get the whole set. I actually managed to pick up the red Yuna chibi and the red Seymour chibi, as well as the red Cloud from the FFVII set. A small Japanese culture store here in Melbourne were selling them. I was very surprised to find them there though, as I had been to that shop before and they've never had any FF stuff. http://www.oddworld.au.com/misc/images/coke-figures.jpg I wish that Coke had FF figures over here ... all Coke ever has over here is competitions you have to SMS your details in to enter. I also have a set of tiny FFVIII figures which I think came from some kind of chocolate egg set from Japan. http://www.oddworld.au.com/misc/images/ffviii-small.jpg Heh, I wanted an excuse to use my digital camera and to post my FF figure collection. I guess here it is. ;) Abe Babe... |

Thank you to atuysia ... the site he gave me had some FFVII figures that I wanted to get ... in particular SEPHIROTH!!! So I ordered a few of them. I love the Sephy figures in particular, they are just so adorable.
Here's the ones I just got (apart from the red crystal Cloud on the left, as I had him already). http://www.oddworld.au.com/misc/imag...-figures-2.jpg. I hope to be getting some of the FFX ones soon from another site I found. I'll post them when I get them!!! I also got another Iron Giant figure, but this time from FFX the other day, but I haven't taken him out of his package yet. Abe Babe... |
Ah you lucky bums (:) heh sorry). Wish I were allowed to order stuff off the internet. Wish I had a credit card as well. First I would get photoshop 7 (or higher) and then... well I can only marvel at what I can get after that.
*thinks about all the stuff he could get... "ohh.. I don't have that."* Sniff... but all that'll have to wait...:crying: |

Have a look at this one ... it's a model of the Highwind from FFVII.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...a.jpg.orig.jpg http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=16462 But look at the price!!! Yikes, I love Final Fantasy, but I don't think I'm willing to pay $3000 US for it!!! Current bidding is already over $1000. And I thought I was a dedicated FF fan!!! *wishes she had spare $3000 for Highwind model* Abe Babe... |
Look at the detail on it, and it's size. But I think $3000 dollars (US? :eek:) is too much... Even $1000!
And speaking of the Highwind, it would have to be my favourite airship of all the FF's. But I haven't seen the FFX one yet, so I might be surprised! Alcar... |
The Highwind model is so cool!
here are some of the figurines that I'd like to have! http://www.rpgfan.com/pics/ff7/prod-13.jpg Limited Edition Cold Cast Scene Then there's that Cloud on Hardy Daytona- statue! It's so cool! I just have to get it!!! Look here! Then the Bahamut statue from FFVIII... Bahamut 1 Bahamut 2 Ultima WEAPON from FFVIII Ultima WEAPON And Omega WEAPON Omega WEAPON Not to mention Cerberus ! and the Selphie and Quistis with Leviathan-statue Also I'd like to have Kimahri from FFX and Varuna (the enemy) from FFX *sighs and dreams about the lovely figures...* |
