If you are not aware of what a “figma” action figure is, figma is a multi-articulate and customizable action figure created by figure designer/manufacturer Max Factory. figma usually features bishoujo-type characters and comes with an array of weapons, interchangeable faces, limbs, hands, and more. figma was Max Factory’s answer to the growing popularity of articulate figures in Japan. These little action figures have a huge fan base and many of these avid collectors design and customize their own figma-style action figures of their favorite characters. This time around one of these figma enthusiasts did an AMAZING custom job of the cute Yuffie Kisaragi from Square Enix’s Final Fantasy VII. This unknown “customizer” took apart a factory produced Vocaloid Kagamine Rin figma action figure and retooled and sculpted his way to create this brilliant rendition of Yuffie. Considering how much I like Square Enix’s Yuffie Game Edition Play Arts action figure, I can’t help but LOVE the adorable nature of this customized figma. Whoever you are that made this, I salute you! (Once I find out who made this custom figma, I will update this post XD)

Hit the jump and get ready to drool, followed by tears cause ya can’t buy this sucker.
