SH Figuarts Kingdom Hearts 2 - Sora Figure Revealed

I thought that Square Enix had a monopoly on their own characters as far as figures go. Interesting.
There's a nice comparison done by a dude on /toy/. The SHF really does fit with the art style much better than PAK or Bring Arts.
Hopefully this miracle means we'll be getting NieR and NieR Automata SHF's and I guess FF ones so I won't have to rely on SE's overpriced stuff.
There was a time where the only choices for KH figures was Play Aarts, but now it's almost overwhelming. Between PAK, Diamond, SHF, and the BA line, there's different price points and scales. Even within PA itself, there's a bunch of variety. I have a Sora Halloweentown PA figure from their first series but its completely not in scale in their current PAK figures. I guess I have to upgrade all of my best figures to try and keep some order to this scale madness lol
I really hope this leads to more Squarenix figures like Chrono Trigger coming soon
...
Wait... Dragon Quest! Oh god, I would kill for the whole DQ VIII party in Figuarts form.

SH Figuarts Chrono Trigger line. You guys are my kind of people.
Would be cool to get some The World Ends With You figures.
I think Kingdom Hearts is owned by Disney, not Square Enix. They probably just did a deal with Disney, that's why we are seeing Jack Sparrow. I wonder when we can get to see FF characters in SHF. Square will probably never give away their IP, but I Hope we can see it one day. Cause 1/12 scale FF characters is just awesome..

Disney actually holds the rights to kingdom hearts and with it getting more popularity and old fans being true to the franchise I can see why disney would let bandai make them in figuarts. Look how good star wars sells I am for sure going to collect this line!
Just noticed this after I posted mine lol
Sora will be a retail release in November, here are a few preview pics from the current pickup notice:

2017 11 Pickup

SH Figuarts Kingdom Hearts Donald Duck Preview - The Toyark - News

Dang it. Donald is probably my all time favorite cartoon character... Unless we here about TRON versions I have to get this.
That's a great news! I'll get this one. I hope they will do the Disney Villains too
It's been a while since I've played the games. SHF seems to have the license for KH2 while Bring Arts is making KH3. That is at least in Sora's case. I'm not sure about the Disney characters.
