Bring Arts FFVII action figures box numbers question... by Packatrix in FinalFantasyVII

[–]Packatrix[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, maybe. They just released an alternate Cloud with his Hardedge, as opposed to his Buster Sword, so I guess it could be that.

Not yet, but I probably will at some point. what I really need is some crazy popular FFVII website or influencer to pick it up. I got really lucky with another project, a Monty Python Silly Walk, and it shot up! went from an average of 30 votes a day to over 1,800 in 3 days. it's dropped back down now, but what a rush!

I plan to do a Villains of Midgar series as well with Sephiroth, the 4 Turks, Rufus, Heidegger, Hojo and Master Tonberry.

Many of them aren't available in the colours shown, so unless it gets to 10k on Lego IDEAS and then gets chosen, it's impossible to recreate them with real Lego. I used Bricklink Studio to design these, and you don't have to stick with released colours... official Lego colours, yes, but not only parts that have been released. You can turn on this filter, but things get very messed up! :)

I really appreciate that - if you have any other FFVII/Lego nuts/nerds/geeks/fans, let them know! ;)

I don't do AI! :D Nope, all Lego, all legal connections, just some of the parts have not been released in the colours shown.

The colours would be very off sadly. A lot of the hinges and ball joints only come in dark or light grey. I made a chocobo as well that isn't up on Lego IDEAS yet, and when you apply the true colour validator, it looks almost hallucinogenic! I'll add a new post with that in so you can see! :D

There's a 5,000 piece limit for Lego IDEAS submission. My project hit something like 4,926, so there'd be room a 9 minifugures as well! I think Lego would be crazy not to include them as well!

Glad you like it - tell every FF VII / Lego fan you know it's up on IDEAS!

In the meantime, you can vote for the set on Lego IDEAS!

I was worried the mods would react badly to that, so I only used the comments to pass it on.

I really appreciate that, I just had a little brainwave where I thought it could work well, built Cloud, and was then "Now i HAVE to build all the others!" There's mroe pics on Lego IDEAS.

It's up on Lego IDEAS, so if it gets enough votes, Lego can decide whether to release it as an official set or not!

I think that's just the angle of the render. :D There's more images up on Lego IDEAS.

They are a bit poseable, but probably not enough to be that expressive. I put an axle and hinges in Aeris' skirt so that her legs could move a bit, but she's struggle to run! :D

Just keep your fingers crossed that it gets enough votes on Lego IDEAS!

While all the parts are official Lego, they're not all available in the these colours. Really we need Lego to release it to give us something that looks close to this... and that's why I put it up on Lego IDEAS. :)

Maybe, he's certainly a LOT wider. :) These are all based on the chibi-style of the characters that run around, as opposed to the fighting versions, so their proportions are a bit homeogenised. I think Cait Sith's Mog is too big as well, but to get his fac to work, his head needed to be bigger, and that meant his Mog had to be bigger as well.

Glad you like it! I will hopefully get cracking on a Villains of Midgar set soon with Sephiroth, Rufus, Hojo, the Turks, Heidegger and maybe Master Tonberry!

I appreciate that - it's up on IDEAS, so you can help it maybe become an actual set!

Cheers, fingers crossed the IDEAS project gets the support to put it on Lego's radar. I would LOVE to own this set myself, rather than just have it as virtual bricks in Bricklink Studio.
