Heya Final Fantasy Fans!
Sorry for the lack of new content or interaction today, I've had a bit of a lazy day today and didn't really bother with anthing. As some of you may or may not know i was waiting for a Master Creatures Bahamut to arrive in the post.
Well it arrived this morning and guess what!? It was broken.
The seller described the item as mint condition and unopened, he also stated from a smoke and pet free home. Well the box was a yellowy discoloured looking thing, which i admit wasn't damaged, but it looks like it had been sat in smoke for a good few years. Then when i opened the box, which was stuck down at the sides by what looks like the smaller desktop sellotape sized tape, i could clearly see one of the ties for the statue sitting at the bottom of the box loose. I then took out the statue and where the megaflare meets the mouth it was snapped! It also looked like there was some dust on the shoulders that he couldn't get rid of or missed.
So after all the anticipation and waiting... It was a major disappointment! Not only that, but the actual statue was a LOT smaller than all the pictures i've seen of it, made it out to be.
So this afternoon i sent it back to the seller and should receive a full refund shortly.
However!
It may have been a stroke of luck, because in it's place i have found a Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Bahamut Sin figure, also by Play Arts. I'm not usually after the Advent Children figures because i prefer the game stuff. But this was too awesome looking to pass up! I've had a quick look online since and I've only seen some on Amazon.com for $300 and some more on Ebay.com for anywhere between $150 and $300. I'll let people guess what i paid for it, but i can safely say it's nowhere near that much!
The seller said they would send it to me Tomorrow or Thursday using a 48hr courier service. As soon as it's in and assuming there's nothing wrong with it, i'll be posting pictures of it on here to show all you lovely people!
In the meantime, i'll be adding more content to the Final Fantasy VII tab (tomorrow probably).
On another note, i played that Dust 514 beta today for the Playstation 3, which is linked to Eve online. I can't say i'm too sure about it yet. I love the idea but i'd say it needs a bit more work, for a start the interfaces and text were far too small to read properly half the time, and i've got a decent sized tv! The combat felt a tiny bit laggy but then it's an online game, but at the same time, so is CoD etc and that's smooth most of the time. I'd say give it a try, but don't expect greatness yet... It still needs some work.
Thanks for reading!
