These are very rare FFVII merchandise pieces. FFVII UFO catcher dolls:

http://www.kanegon.com/ufo/finalfantasy.htm

When they were making them, the only way to get them was in the crane games in Japan. You can rarely find them on ebay in the US(probably from traders in Japan selling them on ebay first).

So far the ones I have are Cloud Version 2, Tifa, and Aerith.

They also made one of Sephiroth, Red XIII, and Cait Sith.


Sometime I can take photo's of the one's I actually have. Is there anyone here I know who has any of those or know about these peices? What do you guys think of these?

hmmm, They are good and all but things like that don't interest me. In theend I think it's not worth the wait. I would maybe get them if they were local, but there not so...

Meh, it's okay. People are interested in different things what makes us all special. These would catch the eye of a UFO doll collector, collector of Rare toys, or a big FFVII fan. These won't be local ever.

Aerith, you got a good collection of the sets! You have one more than I do!

Because they are so rare, I only want to collect the characters I like. I just want to get Sephiroth for sure. Possibly Vincent, Chocobos, or Yuffie.

I'd like to get them all, because I like having the complete sets of FF characters. ;)

I have a huge FF collection, and I never only pick the ones I like. But FF-VII is my favorite game, and I find the plushies very cute, that's why I try to get all of them. :)

I always have to check the prices, of course. The real collectors now they are not really cheap. And that's the ture reason why it takes so long to get them. :(

I just want to get the characters I like first. To me it may not be worth paying so much for Cait Sith. I'd have to get him cheaper. I payed alot for mine. How much did you pay for yours Aerith?

Well, it was a christmas present from two of my friends. But I think, they payed about 49 Euro for it. But now they cost about 89 Euro in the same shop. The same with Barret. I got the last one for 49 Euro. Now, they are all much more expensive. That's why I didn't get some others yet. ;)

How much was yours?

Wow, the highest price I saw on ebay were $220 dollars for Sephiroth, no joke. I payed a bundle for mine because I got them this year, and that would make them high. I see them going no lower than $100 dollars on ebay :(. I got Tifa $200, because I kept getting outbid and really really wanted it, then I bought Cloud Vol. 2 on the Buy it Now option, for $110, then I just recently got Aerith on the Buy it Now option for $110. They're $100-$220 dollars because of how rare they are.

If I had some spare cash, I would buy them, but I'm not getting excited by them. :D

Yes, I bought them in a German shop (Final Fantasy Shop). They are very expensive in a lot of things, but they have connections to Japan, that means, they can get you almost everything you want. ;)

Wow you're lucky :D! I could never find them in a store here. You'd have to get them on ebay.
