The Shadow Lord Is Come…to “Sculpture Arts”! (12/19/2008)

[The Stig]

Sculpture Arts: Shadow Lord
Tales are told that this fearsome, enigmatic entity single-handedly rallied all the beastmen of Vana’diel to take arms against the children of Altana in a violent conflict that would go down in history as the Crystal War. With his eventual defeat at the hands of the stalwart heroes of the Allied Forces, peace was restored to the land once more. But now, the legendary being of darkness has finally made his triumphant return from beyond the grave. His latest incarnation sees him joining the exalted ranks of “Sculpture Arts”—Square Enix’s premier merchandise series—for the first time.

Price: SRP $229.99
Material: FULLY COLORED POLY-STONE STATUE

FINAL FANTASY XI Official Web Site <-- for movie

Who's gonna buy? XD

And no it doesn't come with a Shadow Ring/Mantle.

Please move to advance if it is needed =p

[Baelorn]

I hate to say it but I'm considering it. Going to FanFest last year cost me about $700 and I didn't go this year so $230 isn't too bad. I would like to see some more pictures of it first though.

[Drex]

lol, 10 inch statue will SMASH EVERYTHING IN ITS PATH

[Not Kuno]

Shit's gonna sell out in 8 hours, better hurry up guys.

[Crisco]

Cool, but no. They would make a ton more money if they sold plush avatars or character models.

[TacoTaru]

I have a stuffed Tonberry and my fiancee has the plush Mandy. Now only if they would release a 12" stuffed Goobie, my day would be made.

Or instead of buying it from SE I can save $80 and buy it from any other online retailer that isn't selling it for retail. . .

Thank God this doesn't come with an in game item or I doubt I'd be able to find it for so much cheaper.

[Sheebs]

Does this come with an in game item? At fanfest they flashed 3 new possible housing items, 1 was a table top model of shadow lord, another was a diorama model of divine might, and the 3rd was a cardigan statue.

The shadowlord item/divine might model looked so unique and detailed I figured they would be the merchandising in game items.

[Not Kuno]

8 hours later did they sell out yet?

[Souj]

$230.00 for that? does it have diamonds intergraded into it? intagraded..grated... ive got no idea how to spell that word hmmm... is there been sum of dem spurkly stones 'side that there thingy?

[Fiye]

Weren't they selling that at Fan Fest anyways?

They had a case and were selling it.

In any case. Looks neat but not something I want.

You must be new to Koto statue shopping aren't you?

Also, SUP SOUJIRO!

[Omnipotent]

230 is like.... almost 6M, 7M if you get from a dedicated forum. EL OH EL.

[Silenka]

I don't really like the Shadow Lord. I do, however, covet the Monster Arts Phoenix and Shiva/Heretic Shiva. Want ; ;

(no money!)

I never did get you that title :/

[nitsuj]

Mine was delivered yesterday


It comes in quite a few pieces in a pretty large box, and it's SUPER heavy.

The crystals on the base are all actually "crystal-like" and the base has the outline of a burning circle (really cool!)

The crystals on his back appear opaque, but I honestly can't tell if it's just an illusion. Over all the craftsmanship is very nice.

I'm totally happy with the statue

(my lovely girlfriend bought it for me for Christmas, it'll live on my desk at work :D )

edit: sorry about the bad picture quality, my iPhone is all I have handy at the moment)

[Auspice]

Can't wait for estarland to ship my order. Saving $80+ on it is going to be worth waiting for.
