Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Tifa Swimsuit Figure Announced With PLAY ARTS Kai Sephiroth

Square Enix announced two new Final Fantasy VII Rebirth collectibles on August 25, both scheduled for release on November 28. 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.

  • Static Arts Tifa Lockhart - Swimsuit Ver.-: the pose shows a soft smile meant to read as a relaxed moment, "different from her usual dignified impression" in the game, per the Denfaminicogamer and Dengeki Hobby Web pieces.
  • PLAY 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.
  • Sephiroth 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.
  • Sephiroth sculpt detail: long silver hair, sharp-eyed features, black long coat, shoulder armor, belts, and boots are all carefully rendered.
  • Reservations: 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. Dengeki Hobby Web notes its article reflects details as of August 24, 2026.
