New Final Fantasy VII and Star Ocean Statues from Diamond Comics
Final Fantasy VII Heroes Take Form as Statues
Two statues based on one of the most popular games in the Final Fantasy franchise are making their way to American shores, and they are available in North America exclusively through Diamond Comic Distributors!
Square-Enix's Final Fantasy line has been one of the most popular and profitable video game series in the history of the medium, with each new installment selling more copies and winning more converts than its predecessor. The key selling points of any Final Fantasy game are the incredible storylines, entertaining side-adventures, and enchanting characters, leaving fans ready to play it again and again! One of the best-selling installments of the series was Final Fantasy VII, which broke sales records with 3.26 million units sold in Japan in its release in 1997. Now fans can relive the game with the Final Fantasy VII: Cloud Strife & Daytona Hardy 1/8 Statue and Final Fantasy VII: Yuffie Kisaragi Resin Statue!
Imported from Japan, these highly detailed statues are from Kotobukiya, creators of the Final Fantasy X: Yuna Vinyl Statue, Final Fantasy X: Heretic Yojimbo & Heretic Bahamut action figures, and Armored Core action figures. These statues commanded high sales figures in the secondary market and are back with a new lower price! The Cloud Strife & Daytona Hardy statue stands 7"Â tall and 10"Â long, and magnificently depicts the heroic Cloud astride his Hardy Daytona motorcycle. The Yuffie statue stands 8" tall and features the wily and unpredictable lady ninja in unbelievable detail. Both statues come painted and ready to display with the rest of the Final Fantasy collectibles. Scheduled to ship in January 2005, these are two sculptures that no "Final Fan"Â will want to miss!

Three new statues from the hit RPG video game series Star Ocean are headed towards retailers' shelves, and they are available exclusively in North America through Diamond Comic Distributors!
Tri-Ace's Star Ocean series is one of the most popular lines of RPG video games in the genre. Described as an anime version of Star Trek, the games have been compared to various other popular and extremely successful RPG video games. The games have been huge hits among fans not only of video games but, because of the story elements and animation style, of science fiction and manga/anime as well. The popularity of the series continues to grow and fans of the series and collectors alike will be rushing to the stores to get their hands on the new Star Ocean PVC Statues.
From Kotobukiya - creators of the Bastard!! and Neon Genesis Evangelion statues - this first release of pre-painted PVC statues depicts the heroic Fayt Linegod, his childhood friend Sophia Esteed, and Seaheat agent Nel Zelpher. Each character is individually posed and features costume detail identical to the game, and all are scheduled to ship in December 2004.
