The first is the Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Static Arts Tifa Lockhart - Swimsuit Ver.-, a 29,700 yen statue depicting Tifa in a light purple frilled swimsuit with a flower ornament in her hair. The figure measures approximately W123mm x D122mm x H260mm and uses clear materials for the base to evoke a waterfront with splashing waves. The second product is the Final Fantasy VII Rebirth PLAY ARTS Kai Sephiroth, an action figure priced at 31,900 yen, featuring Sephiroth as a Soldier 1st Class. This PLAY ARTS Kai iteration introduces newly designed hip and joint parts that replace click-based articulation with click-free movement for smoother motion, plus movable eyes for a wider range of expressions. Accessories include a detachable single wing, Sephiroth's Masamune blade, an interchangeable hair piece, a smiling face plate, and various hands. Reservations are open at the Square Enix e-STORE and AmiAmi, where the Tifa statue is listed at a discounted 26,730 yen. Character design is credited to Tetsuya Nomura and Roberto Ferrari.","whyItMatters":"This marks Square Enix's latest push in the Final Fantasy VII Rebirth merchandise line, pairing a high-end Static Arts statue with a redesigned PLAY ARTS Kai that upgrades the line's articulation, a change that addresses long-standing collector feedback on joint movement.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStatic Arts Tifa Lockhart - Swimsuit Ver.-: the pose shows a soft smile meant to read as a relaxed moment, \u0026#34;different from her usual dignified impression\u0026#34; in the game, per the Denfaminicogamer and Dengeki Hobby Web pieces.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePLAY ARTS Kai Sephiroth: the revamped hip and joint parts swap the prior click-based articulation for click-free movement, and movable eyes expand the range of expressions, both cited as improvements over past PLAY ARTS Kai figures.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSephiroth accessory list: a detachable single wing, his Masamune blade, an interchangeable hair piece with movement, a smiling face plate, and various hands including weapon-holding hands.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSephiroth sculpt detail: long silver hair, sharp-eyed features, black long coat, shoulder armor, belts, and boots are all carefully rendered.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReservations: open at the Square Enix e-STORE and at AmiAmi, which lists the Tifa statue at 26,730 yen, a discount from the 29,700 yen reference price.
