Final Fantasy VII Remake is finally available on PlayStation 4. (Well, the first part, anyway. It's a long story.) The Square Enix video game is also receiving a whole slew of new merchandise like special Play Arts figures and more later this year. Included in that lineup is a very nice-looking series of statuettes featuring protagonist Cloud Strife, antagonist Sephiroth, and party member Aerith Gainsborough. And they are available for pre-order now!
In general, these statuettes aren't quite as expensive as the aforementioned Play Arts figures, which is pretty commonly the case. The Play Arts lineup is poseable and has, you know, joints, whereas the statuettes are quite nice to look at but don't really have any ability to do anything but just stand there looking cool in the base pose. Even so, they're nicely detailed, and each character comes with their signature weapons in hand and display stand.
