Dragon Quest Figure Collection Legend

When a new Dragon Quest game is released in Japan, lines of anxious gamers may be seen snaking around the block outside LAOX or Sofmap shops as harried employees inside prepare for the queue. It's good then that most Japanese patrons are mild-mannered and mob mentality is rare. Although the DQ games sell like hotcakes, Dragon Quest toys receive a more tempered reception from the fan base. Square Enix's DQ Figure Collection Legend may change all that with its gathering of beautifully sculpted 7cm PVC figures which are based on the heroes and heroines of the Dragon Quest games through the years. Preorders are scheduled to ship in mid-late Dec 2006 at US$4.50 per randomly packaged figure.
