The " Final Fantasy 35th Anniversary UT " featuring designs of numbered titles from the first game to "XVI," which is scheduled to be released in the future, was recently announced and has become a topic of conversation. The statue is expected to ship out on 23 July 2023.The " Final Fantasy" series, a milestone in RPGs, will celebrate its 35th anniversary in December 2022.Ī special 35th anniversary site has been opened, and the series is accelerating toward its 35th anniversary with the release of new games, new items, and more. It is designed based on Yoshitaka Amano’s Final Fantasy VI illustrations and made by high-end figurine maker Prime 1 Studio. Yoshitaka AmanoĪnd that’s because there will only be 600 Masterline statues of Terra produced worldwide (with 150 just for Japan) and you only get to reserve one for yourself before that number runs out. The newly launched statue of FFVI Terra atop a Magitek Armor is only the second Masterline statue introduced and Square Enix is banking hard on the hope that collectors will gobble it up regardless of the price.

The Square Enix Masterline collection series was launched in 2020 with the 1/4 scale statue of NieR:Automata, currently priced at US$2,849 and decidedly out of stock. But even placed against that, this US$12,000 statue has Sakaguchi questioning Square Enix’s pricing decision. The game uses 3D capture of over 150 hand-crafted dioramas for its in-game locations, which was both time-consuming and costly. One of Mistwalker’s most recent games is 2021’s Fantasian, which was only released on Apple platforms. Sakaguchi is no stranger to spending on things he wants. Sakaguchi created the Final Fantasy series at SquareSoft (before the merger with Enix to be the Square Enix of today) but he left in 2003 to form his own developer company Mistwalker.
