Square Enix Opens Orders for New Scale Figure of FFXII’s Fran
Pre-orders have officially begun for the third entry in a new scale figure series presented jointly by Square Enix and Good Smile Company.
This latest release features Fran from the role-playing game Final Fantasy XII, capturing the Viera warrior in a stunning 1/6.5 scale format.
The figure maintains the high quality expected from this ongoing collaboration, which aims to present characters from the franchise in their most symbolic forms.
Final Fantasy XII, originally released in 2006, tells the expansive story of the kingdom of Dalmasca and its struggle for freedom within the world of Ivalice.
The game is celebrated for its political intrigue and unique “Gambit” battle system, which allowed for programmable AI commands during combat.
Set in the vast world of Ivalice, the story follows a diverse cast of characters as they navigate a war between the Archadian and Rozarrian Empires.
Fran is a central character in this narrative, a member of the Viera race known for their longevity and sensitivity to the magical Mist that permeates the world.
Having left her home in the Eruyt Village, she became a sky pirate and the partner of the charismatic Balthier, serving as the calm and knowledgeable voice of reason within the party.
The sculpt recreates her appearance with precision, featuring her standing calmly with her signature bow resting on her shoulder.
Details such as her unique armour, which blends organic and metallic elements, and her characteristic long ears have been faithfully reproduced to match the original character design.
The Final Fantasy XII Fran 1/6.5 Scale Figure stands approximately 33cm in height and is priced at 44,000 JPY (approx. $300 USD / £240 GBP).
The statue is scheduled to ship in Japan in March 2027, with pre-orders available until Wednesday, March 25, 2026, at the Good Smile Company Online Store and participating partner shops such as HobbyLink Japan.
