TOYS Final Fantasy XI Taru Taru Trading Arts - Import Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» The Taru Taru race featured in Final Fantasy XI reminds us of the Ewoks in Star Wars except the Taru Taru are less furry and a little smarter. They're both munchkin-like, adorable, somewhat pudgy, and battle back with fierce wherewithal when confronted with danger.

The next set of Final Fantasy Trading Arts toys feature the various Taru Taru characters we've met in Final Fantasy XI in all of their diminutive statures. From the left of the photo and moving right, they are:


» Ajido-Marujido - Mischievous minister of the Orastery
» Star Sibyl - Clairvoyant leader of the Taru Taru in Windurst
» Robel-Akbel - Armored Warlock Warlord with a penchant for magic
» Shantotto - A Black Mage who looks to the heavens when she laughs

Square Enix is supplying the toys in factory boxes which contain 9 figures. Buyers will receive the four characters listed above and 1 secret Taru Taru that's yet to be announced. You'll also receive four duplicates in the factory box. The figures are fixed pose and measure between 5.5-6.0cm tall and are constructed of PVC. Please note that NCS is currently only accepting preorders for the Japanese version of the Taru Taru toys which are sold in a box of 9 figures. Square USA will be releasing the toys stateside as well but only for the four aforementioned figures that are pictured in the photo to the upper left at US$25/set.

Preorders are welcome to ship in January 2010 at JPY4050 per factory box of 9 figures or US$45.90 from NCS.
