Question regarding Square Enix figures
 
I might be clueless. Are all their Play Arts Kai licensed figures 9"-10" tall? Or are there any that are normally sized, in the 6" area? Their current scale is too large for me, but I really liked their take on some characters.

There is no scale to their figures. In fact, the size changes wildly. Now, if you're looking for Final Fantasy characters, you're not likely to find better than the Play Arts...mainly because that's the only way they get made anymore. They have begun to license out Kingdom Hearts, but that's about it.

To be frank, the Play Arts line is a crap shoot every time you buy a figure. Sometimes you'll get one that falls apart. Sometimes you'll get a really good one. Unfortunately, it's not a line for completionist collectors, even if you're just trying to go for all the characters from, say, Final Fantasy VII. The newer figures are getting obscenely expensive and the older ones are hard to find for a decent price.

Tbh, I'm just mainly looking at their Marvel and DC characters, not their Final Fantasy ones. That's a little disappointing to hear about their QC control, I was hoping they'd be as good as the SH Figuarts line. They look really good.

While I do not have all of them, the Marvel ones I have are consistently 10" scale, where as it seems the DC ones come in 2 scales: 10" and 8" scale.

Yeah just too big. 6" would have been perfect, but oh well. Was hoping some KO companies would have done it on eBay, but no luck.
