GAME MODE Staff·Jun 23, 2026· 4m read
Prime 1 Studio revealed a 1/4-scale Aerith statue from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth with three interchangeable staves, leading a surge in premium game statues.

A premium centerpiece
The high-end statue market keeps raising its ambitions, and Prime 1 Studio's latest reveal is a standout. The studio unveiled a 1/4-scale Aerith Gainsborough statue from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, part of its Square Enix Masterline series, debuting December 26, 2025, at the NEXT LEVEL SHOWCASE broadcast. It is exactly the kind of showpiece the premium tier is built around.
The Aerith piece is designed for collectors who want authenticity and options. It includes three interchangeable staves, the Guard Rod, Wizer Rod, and Gambanteinn, letting owners customize the display to match different moments and loadouts from the game.
A broader premium slate
Prime 1's gaming and crossover lineup reflects strong demand for licensed collectibles:
- Previously revealed Fallout statues include Lucy, Maximus, and The Ghoul, tapping into the franchise's TV-driven resurgence.
- The studio ran an Early Summer Sale starting April 27, 2026, with discounts up to 60 percent.
- That active retail and secondary market signals healthy collector interest in premium pieces.
The high-end category, populated by studios like Prime 1, First 4 Figures, and Sideshow, targets serious collectors with limited-edition, four-figure-priced pieces built to anchor a display.
Where the category is headed
Statues like the Aerith piece sit at the intersection of gaming and fine collectibles, and they have become a meaningful part of how major franchises extend their brands. A beloved character from a hit remake project, rendered at quarter scale with swappable accessories, is aimed squarely at fans who want a definitive physical tribute.
The pricing and edition size for the Aerith statue had not been announced at reveal, which is typical for these showcase pieces, so collectors will want to watch for those details before committing. Premium statues often command significant sums and limited runs, making early information valuable for anyone planning a purchase.
The Final Fantasy VII franchise remains one of the most reliable engines for premium collectibles, and Aerith is among its most iconic characters. With interchangeable staves and Prime 1's craftsmanship, the statue is positioned to be a highlight of the studio's Square Enix Masterline, and a reminder that the high-end statue market is thriving as game IP continues to cross over into collectible display pieces.
