Got it, T, many thanks.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this so apologies in advance if I got it wrong. Does anyone know what happened to the Final Fantasy Merchandise forums? It looks like the place has shut down but it's odd that no warning was given. Any clues anyone? Ta, SR

Just snagged one for £70 from a seller in the UK - I'm well chuffed! :) It's not arrived yet so here's hoping that the postman doesn't play football with it prior to delivery. I just need Shiva and Cloud & Daytona now and then the main parts of the collection will be complete. Yep, I had...

Hi MG, Thanks for getting back to me. Oddly enough I had the same problem with my Ifrit but I managed to solve it by using some clear, non-setting 'gloop' stuff normally used for sticking posters on walls. The stuff holds well enough but the parts do pull apart, without damage, and the gloop...

Hi, Thanks for the reply, you've added some stuff to the list of things I'd worked out for myself. Another thing I noticed is that many sellers get confused between the normal small creature/monster figures and Creatures-Kai. My collection is still growing. I just managed to grab a Sephiroth...

*You may regret saying that, CC.*;) I'm doing OK with collecting the FF7 & 8 character figures but I'm still missing a few of the scarcer ones. I'll post some photos as soon as I get the lighting for my cabinets sorted out. I've also been working on FF8 GFs, the 'Master Creatures' and the...

Will do, CC, and thanks again.

Hi CC, Nope, Tifa & Vincent are the culprits. I found a chap with some experience of working with resin moldings who sorted things out for me, he heated the legs gently with a hairdryer and carefully flexed them until they fit over the pins. Scary to watch but end result is just fine. :)...

Hi CC, I got two of the Kotobukiya 1/8 line resin statues. The dowels/pins in the bases are nearly 1/4" closer together then the holes in the legs of the statues. The seller has informed me that the legs should have enough flexibility to squeeze in without snapping off. I'll give that a go...

Thanks, CC, I have started but my first foray hasn't exactly gone well. I purchased 2 FF VII figures over the internet but neither of 'em fit on the base properly. I guess they'll be going back and I'll have to start over. Bugger! :(

Chanpanion Cube, Many, many thanks for your comprehensive reply. You've told me everything I needed to know and more besides. It looks like I'll have to start with the Kotobukiya 1/8 line and maybe progress to the more expensive stuff at a later date. Thanks again. Take care, SR

Hi, A bit of advice required please. I'm a big fan of FFVII & FFVIII and I'm looking to collect character, GF and monster statues/figures. I'm not particularly interested in the 'action' figures (the ones made of plastic with movable joints), I'm talking about the detailed, static figures...
