For anyone that remembers the “surprise” ending from the NES version of Metroid twenty years ago (”Wait a minute. Samus is a GIRL?!”) will be happy to hear about the new series of statues from First 4 Figures. The series is based on the whole Metroid Prime trilogy and features Samus in various states of glory, from the classic Gravity Suit, to the Varia Suit and even the stunning Zero Suit. Featured below is the Zero Suit variant available for preorder and is limited to 250 statues worldwide. According to First 4 “She comes armed with her signature pistol and has curves in all the right places!” Right. She costs a hefty $134.99 for this 9.5″ statue, but that’s really only $30 more for an ultra limited edition with a really cool light-up base. Probably worth it if you’re willing to go the distance for this figure in the first place.
