Not as bad as I thought it would be considering this is Square Enix, but still very expensive for what it essentially an average size human 1:3 statue, especially when you look at the price of Prime 1's other 1:3 scale pieces in comparison.

Based off the price of the Square Enix Masterline Fullmetal Alchemist statue that was recently put up for pre-order, which was 264,000 yen with tax in Japan and $2600 without tax in the US, I think the actual prices in the west will be much higher than the conversion rate suggests unfortunately. The DX version might end up being $2700 if that price of 275,000 yen includes tax or $3000 if it doesn't. If this is the case, I may just have my Japanese proxy buy it for me directly from the Square Enix JP Store because even if I have to pay up to $700 in shipping for what is likely 2 boxes, it'll still probably be cheaper, not to mention way faster, than buying from the Square Enix US Store or a local retailer.

Oof, the new angle for a face without blindfold is even worse than I thought. For that price I expect perfect details, face doesnt look close enough and feathers are still pitiful. At that scale they could really be fuller.

At that scale they could also do velvet texture instead of standard cloth texture. Looks like potato sack.

I like this statue. Good thing I held out and didn't order the 1/4 version. I'm preordering this first day too.

I been asked by fellow statue collector who is not a member here. Does Square Enix charge fully when preordering or do they charge upon shipping?

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

they charge upfront for most of the things that are above 1k in price. So yes, they will be charging upfront for this also.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

It's a possibility Amazon JP will sell it themselves like the 1/4 2B. Keep in mind Amazon JP did increase their international shipping rates back in March 2023. You'll have to do the number crunching if Amazon JP puts the 1/3 2B up for international shipping.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.
