Post by: TaloFinn on December 30, 2000, 03:42:01 AM: When you signed up did it ever mention the doll? As when I signed up there was no mention of it anywhere, save the site that mentioned the doll was part of signup.

Post by: Mr. Kennedy on December 30, 2000, 02:08:54 PM: ViVi,

If you filled out the form with your name and adress @ playonline, then you should get one in a couple weeks, at least we know from other people that we\'ll be getting these(unlike those demo disk from over two months ago!) So there is no need to panic, and get over excited.

Post by: Halberto on January 01, 2001, 07:50:02 PM: Man..... I thought it was gonna be made of plastic like a action figure. :( ......
Title: I got my Vivi doll in the mail!
Post by: EThugg on January 01, 2001, 08:08:26 PM: That\'s why I said \'doll\'. You think I call action figures \'dolls\'? BTW, there was a 2pk (Vivi & some other dude) of action figures on ebay. Check em out....

On a totally different note, I want a Sonic Zippo....anyone seen them around? I heard about it on segaweb, but I forgot how to get it. :)

Post by: CRUCIALL on January 01, 2001, 11:24:08 PM: okay where in the hell do you get those FF9 figures at?
Title: I got my Vivi doll in the mail!
Post by: Darth Joyda on January 01, 2001, 11:29:24 PM: Thanks for the pics. Those figures look nice. I\'d surely want to buy one or two too!

Sadly FF9 is coming into Europe in February ( or was it March?!?! I sure hope not ) - I\'ve got enough money to buy it and I will. After experiencing FF7 and 8 I can\'t miss out FF9 :)

Title: I got my Vivi doll in the mail!
Post by: Living-In-Clip on January 02, 2001, 04:41:43 PM: Those are some cool friggin\' toys. The doll kicks ass too. I don\'t even like FF, but I want those toys.

Anyone seen the newer Street Fighter toys? Those are cool as hell too. I\'ve got Vega/Ken/Ryu/Cammy.

Coolest toy is ... The Ken import doll, I\'ve got. Its KEN from the Street Fighter Zero 2 game. Its sweet. Actually, in the words of Cartman from Southpark.."Super sweet".
:D

Toys, comics, cartoons and video games are all in the same boat of being stereotyped as kids things. I think you might be suprised with the number of adults that buy action figures and the like. Especially game/comic releated toys. Besides, there\'s nothing wrong with being young at heart.

Post by: bandit on January 02, 2001, 07:41:06 PM: you can find those FF9 figs at your local toy store..we sell them at EB
Title: I got my Vivi doll in the mail!
Post by: TaloFinn on January 02, 2001, 08:36:24 PM: Another place to locate items from games would be an import store. AnimeNation.com and the like would be a good place to start a search.
