Pre-orders for the FFXIII Play Arts Shin figure of Lightning are now available worldwide. The figure costs 23,760 yen (~$166.39) or €219.99 in Europe, and it can be found on the AmiAmi online store or the Square Enix EU storefront.

While the Square Enix NA store has a listing for the new Lightning figure for $219.99, at the time of writing it appears as sold out and temporarily unavailable. However, it is unclear if this is because pre-orders are still not up in North America. As a reminder, AmiAmi offers international shipping. The figure is set to release outside of Japan on January 2026.

The figure features Final Fantasy XIII protagonist Lightning, and it includes a variety of hand parts to pose her freely. It also includes her signature Blazefire Saber in both sword mode and gun mode. You can check out the figure in more detail here:

The FFXIII Lightning figure is the third in Square Enix’s new Play Arts Shin line, and it follows a figure of Noctis from Final Fantasy XV, and one of Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. Square Enix announced the Lightning figure back in mid-March 2025, and it also opened pre-orders for it in Japan on the same day.

Square Enix has revealed a new Play Arts Shin action figure modeled after Lightning, the protagonist of Final Fantasy XIII. The company has also opened pre-orders on its e-Store in Japan, where it will release the action figure in late October 2025 at 26,400 yen (~$178.30).

This new action figure will have a total height of around 257 mm (~10.12 inches) when Lightning is standing still. The set will come with several alternate hand pose parts. Square Enix will also include the two variations of the Blaze Edge weapon in its sword and gun modes separately.

Here are the sample images showing the parts list and some of the poses the action figure will be able to take:

Lightning will be the third character to receive a Play Arts Shin action figure adaptation. Square Enix launched the new brand with the Final Fantasy VII Rebirth version of Vincent Valentine, whose action figure will be available on August 30, 2025. The second character is Final Fantasy XV's Noctis Lucis Caelum, who will follow suit the month after on September 27, 2025.

The Play Arts Shin action figure of Noctis from Final Fantasy XV is now available for pre-order. You can get it from both the Japanese and the North American store.

The Japanese version of the figure costs 26,400 JPY. Meanwhile, the North American version costs $219.99. Those who order from Japan will get it sooner—on September 27, 2025—while those who order from the North American branch will receive it some time in December 2025. This is when Square Enix sends it out, so the actual date you get your parcel may differ.

As a Play Arts Shin action figure, you can pose the Final Fantasy XV Noctis figure in any way you like. It also comes with multiple hand parts (including versions with Ring of the Lucii) and the Engine Blade. There is also an additional face plate where Noctis’s eyes are red. This version of the Noctis figure has additional ts, which lends to a wider range of movement. For an additional gimmick, you can actually move his eyeballs so that you can make it look like he’s looking in different directions than just the default.

Final Fantasy XV is readily available on the PS4, Xbox One, and Windows PC.

Square Enix has revealed a new action figure line named Play Arts Shin, and Vincent Valentine will be the first character in the lineup. The company will specifically use Vincent's appearance in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for this new action figure.

The new Play Arts Shin brand, derived from the kanji character that can be translated to "Real" or "True," will mark a new evolution in Square Enix's Play Arts action figure series. The company launched the overall series with an action figure of Final Fantasy X-2's Yuna in 2003.

Square Enix then upgraded the line to Play Arts Kai, which features the kanji character that means "Revised." Some of the more recent examples of these figures are Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's Yuffie, Aerith, and Elena, which the company will release in 2025.

This announcement was freshly made on the Square Enix Official Goods X . The company has still yet to publish a listing for the product on its Japanese e-Store website as of the reveal.

The reveal tweet is also available to view right below:

Square Enix will publish more details on the Play Arts Shin action figure of Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth—including the release date—at a later time.
