Final Fantasy Play Arts Action Figures
Talk0this wiki
The Final Fantasy Play Arts action figures are a series of poseable figurines designed around a Final Fantasy character. Their likeness is intended to match the character's design in their original game. They usually stand at an average of 7 to 9 inches depending on the character. Some characters come with props such as weapons or vehicles as well as additional hands, feet, heads in order to better customize the figurine into a pose of the buyer's choosing. Each figurine comes with an average of 20 articulation points.
The Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy XIII-2 and Dissidia Final Fantasy action figure lines are released under the new Final Fantasy Play Arts Kai label, possessing improved articulation, more accessories, slightly larger sizes, and higher prices than regular Final Fantasy Play Arts action figures.
