On one hand - nice that they're finally bringing FFVII to the 1/12 scale. And I really like that the look is based on the classic game, not the remake.
But then - the price is highway robbery. Like, almost twice the price of a Figuart? Hell no. And it's so barebones too - I could live with only a few hands and the sword if it at least came with alternate faces / heads - the blank stare works for standing still but as soon as you put the figure in action poses it looks weird. Lastly, I have heard they packing a freakin’ NFT into this. “Digital certificate of authenticity in a blockchain”-kinda bullshit. Stop it with that dumb crap and include worthwhile accessories instead. |

I like the Bring Arts but hate the prices for what you get.
That said, how many times are they going to make 1/12 FF7 figures, especially based on the classic designs? For that, I suppose I'll pay the price just for that specific collection. |

But Square knows of their position on the market, hence why they can charge whatever they please. |

Neat idea to make FFVII Bring Arts, but that is far too expensive for bare bones accessories. I was expecting different swords for him at least. I have no clue what the NFT would entail for this figure.
The FFIX Bring Arts had a good assortment of pack ins for their price point. Even the recent Tactics Bring Arts figures, bare bones as they may be, are fairly priced at around $60. This is probably a pass for me. Might consider on sale. I own the Play Arts Cloud with the Hardy Daytona, which is a fine substitute and didn't cost nearly as much. |

I feel like they are overcharging on FF stuff because they can. No way IX figures should have been those insanely expensive 2 packs. I couldn't even get all the DQ ones because the price is just ridiculous, same with the Mana ones. Play Arts is beyond ridiculous for the prices now. Over near or $200 for these things. Who the hell is paying almost $500 for two figures an a bike? The damn older Play Arts Cloud and Bike cost like $60. |

I feel like starting a brand off at a reasonable price and then jacking up the price is something Square Enix consistently does. I remember liking my $40 Big Boss and Ichigo Kurosaki Play Arts Kai figures, then suddenly PAK was a $80-100 line with hands down some of the worst QC I've ever seen. I swore them off until the NiER Bring Arts came out, which were great for their price, but here we are again. The NFT is a comically terrible addition as well.
