Pre-orders for F4F Lan Di statue begins Nov 3rd!

First 4 Figures has revealed their upcoming statue for Lan Di from Shenmue. This statue has Lan Di standing on a dragon mirror with his hand stretched outward. Pre-orders begin November 3rd. #SaveShenmueHD

“Get up… I’ll allow you to die like a warrior…” ~Lan Di

Lan Di pre-orders go live on next Tuesday, 3rd November! We will be doing something different this time round. We will have the exclusive edition size as a TBD for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, we will cut off all pre-orders and immediately put it to wait-list. This will mean far far smaller editions sizes for the exclusives as there is only a 2 week window to order. This is a new strategy to bring the number of exclusives down to better match the real demand, and not just some random edition size. This is how we will be doing all our launches in the future.

Please share and comment - thanks for your support!

Finally, it's happening! And with good timing too, considering it's going live on the 3rd. Interesting strategy to only produce as many limited edition statues as preoders are made within 2 weeks. This could make the statue even more rare than usual. Anyone who wants this statue should make sure to preoder quickly, before some retailers snatch them to resell them at greatly inflated prices.

I'm guessing they're going to make 2 versions like Ryo again, one standard edition which won't sell out anytime soon?

Unlikely, something like this will be licensed from Sega more than likely.

I don't see him on their website yet but maybe he won't show up for a few more hours. I am hopeful that they decide to do more of these statues of other characters like Xiuying and Guizhang!

Just a small initial deposit, then full payment when the figure is ready and in the warehouse.

I was looking at the "How to order" page and it said they will bill you when the statue ships.

It's up and running! Just preordered both versions.

And hell yeah, they made the arm switchable between his signature stance with his hands on his back and the
I'll allow you to die like a warrior stance. Bases are also just like I imagined, Dragon Mirror and Dojo floorboards.

Exclusive version - Regular version
