While these look amazing.. I myself stopped collecting play arts due to the price gauging. And spare me the "it's an import toy". Most toys are imported. Price gauging is price gauging. Play Arts have been ridiculous for quite some time now.
If you are going to charge 12inch scale (hot toy) prices than make them hot toy quality and scale. Most of the joints on the square enix figures I had became brittle and broke. Luckily I dont play with my figures so not a huge problem for me. But if posing was key to my collecting, I would have gone nuts from anger. |

Just want to tell you the Truth; you got a Bootleg Knock off Play Arts Kai or Bootleg Bring Arts Because under normal Conditions, the Joints on Play Arts Kai or Bring Arts do not break. I own many Play Arts Kai and Bring Arts. None of them have breakage Issues. In Fact, the Joints on Shoulder and Wrist, is some of best Quality I ever ever seen. You got Bootleg from your Vendor. Sorry to tell you that. Because these are known to have bad Quality and Breakage Issues right when removed from Package. |

I also thought this Line was really Dead.
I have no other Explanation for this, than to assume...Merchandise Division really got my Emails. Contacted the Support so often. I assume other Fans did also contact them. Via Email or Twitter. I tried to convince them, not to give up on the Play Arts Kai Line yet, because still love these. That was around that time, where they wanted to "Erase" Play Arts Kai, and replace them with Bring Arts only. The Support always told me, my request would be directly send to the Merchandise Division of Square Enix. After that, the new FF7 Remake PAK showed up, improved, with new Joints and now KH Play Arts Kai. So glad they changed their mind, due to countless requests from me and many other Fans at Twitter maybe. Last edited by Ventus; 04-12-2022 at 07:24 PM.. |

All of my figures from square were brought direct from square enixes website. I'm well aware of bootlegs. Been collecting for 30+ years. Still trash joints. Good try through.

Joints exactly? Did you move the Figures a lot? Like...posing them around multiple times at 1 Day? The Wrist Joints are slim; just like the ones on Figuarts and Mafex. These can break. But man, you would have to add a lot of Force on the Hips, Chest and Shoulder Joints for these to break. |
