Fire Emblem Fates: Corrin Nohr Noble 1/7 Scale Figure Announced!

May 26, 2023 FE Fates, Merchandise, News No comments

At WonHobby Gallery 2023 Spring, a new scale figure for Corrin in her Nohr Noble attire was revealed.

The figure is expected to release on June 2024, so just over a year away.

Intelligent Systems has added a product page on their website, featuring a 360 degree showcase, plus artwork and a comment from Yusuke Kozaki, who designed the characters.

Here’s our translation of his comment:

No way, Corrin is getting a scale figure and it’s the popular Nohr Noble outfit too!

It has a really cool finish and looks great from every angle. It seems CG is used for prototyping these days–the realistic shape of the cape and the silhouette of the flowing hair is a clear sign–and the quality has improved a lot in recent years.

It’s already been 8 years since the release of Fire Emblem Fates, but I’m delighted that we still have the chance to sculpt it with the latest technology!

Good Smile Company (the distributor) also has their own product page. Below are photos from the page.

Fire Emblem Engage: Four Wings & Another Firene Twitter Tidbits

March 30, 2023 FE Engage, News No comments

Following the recent Fell Xenologue trailer for Fire Emblem Engage, the Japanese Twitter account has shared regular tidbits of info.

First, another glimpse of the Alfred and Céline from the other Elyos:

I had a suspicion, but this confirms that Céline’s retainers and also her mother, Ève, are dead. In the trailer, there was a distinct lack of retainers. So I imagine most of–if not all of–them are dead already.

Since the Fell Xenologue tells a more compact story, it makes sense to limit the number of the characters, since we’ve already got Alear, the dragon twins, Four Wings and 8 royals, at least.

Next, the Four Wings, starting with Zelestia:

Zelestia (VA: Rika Fukami) is the leader ofthe Four Wings. She’s a mage dragon who’s lived for millenia.

A conversation with Zelestia:

You may recognise her line from the trailer. Because the Fell Xenologue occurs after Chapter 6 (when you unlock the Ancient Well), Alear has already met Zephia by then.
