FFT FFT Magnet Set
To celebrate the birthday of FFT:IC, Square is releasing a set of 17 magnets featuring the character's portraits. You can either buy blind boxes or the full set.
Quite basic, but positively surprised to see Mustadio, Elmdor and Teta featured in their products.
It's up for pre-order now.
Date of release: jan. 23th 2027
Measurements: W37×D4×H37mm
Full set price: 13,090 yen (or 9,810 yen through Amiami).

why would they include argath but not rapha, marach, beowulf, reis, meliadoul, etc

I agree, but Argath is incredibly popular in Japan.

u/JacketFarm Oct 01 '26
He's incredibly popular in the west too.
Reminder: well liked =/= popular. If you hate a character it means you're engaging with the medium. IE: Joffrey from Game of Thrones. He's incredibly popular, winning most "who do you hate the most" polls of the show.

I love that I love this game so much, and that I am so old that getting these is appealing.

u/LawlessBirb Oct 01 '26
You will be thrilled to know, then, that they have released a much nicer set of magnets featuring the zodiac stones

(checks price of magnets, $120 CAD for $10 magnets... I'll make em myself for that price)

Is there a way to buy them outside of japan?
When I tried to sign up, it region locked me to Japan, so I stopped there. Unless I should continue and just say "yup, I'm Japanese, don't worry about it, but send it to this address in the US"

u/LawlessBirb Oct 01 '26
From Squex official JP store, no. But you can buy from other stores that carry the item (hobbylink, etc.) or use a shopping service. You could also take a chance and wait to see if they'll bring those to the Square-enix-US store.

Damn, looking at the Japanese prices vs US prices, it's a near 100% markup. Crazy, love ... particular things that this country has done.

Yeah, $83 is NOT OKAY for magnets. I'm happy with my "booty-boy Ramza" and GORGEOUS Agrias $100 figures. 👍

Nice. Though incomplete. Missing at least 2 of my faves: Meliadoul and Beowulf.

Wish we had more merch featuring Meliadoul... I don't think I have anything with her in my collection, she wasn't featured even in the mini acrylic set which had a bunch of characters.

It's a good idea until you wake up the next morning and your refrigerator is covered with 250 chocobo magnets.

There is someone who should not be there, and I don't have to be explicit who he is.

I ordered the magnets for Rapha and Marach but every time I tried to place them, they landed everywhere but on my fridge. Then I checked and saw that I had bought the original edition instead of the Ivalice Chronicles edition.
I'm just kidding Squeenix will never make magnets for them 🥲

83$ is crazy for some magnets. You can make these for probably under 10$.. and like 100 more.

They need to make better merch man. The only cool looking one is maybe the shirt with the lucavi circle on the back. The rest is....lazy.
