The absolutely gorgeous Saber Lily. Shes going to be bundled with the PS2 game Fate Unlimited Codes due out next Thursday. Anybody going to bother to buy the game just for the figure? Game will cost 10,490 yen. I got my Saber off the production line so didnt get a copy of the game so cant tell you whether its decent or not. More pics at Good Smile and trailer of the game below. Full review soon.

what's more is that you would have to pay more for an imported PS2 or the mod chip to play the game.
(ID #409030) Posted on 2008/12/12 16:09
Actually if you have the PS2 Slim it is easy to mod it without a chip. But you need to spend another $20 for a swap Magic disk.

I don't think I will get this one. PS2 is region coded if I'm not mistaken. If it was like the ds (not the newest model), I would get this in a heart beat. The game looks so cool. Wish they had a pc version.

These are my sentiments exactly. Danny's so lucky to get it off the production line, makes the rest of us jealous! >.< I really want to get Saber Lily. The costume design is amazing and quite different from the original, making it worthwhile to get. For sure I would have ordered it right away, had it not been bundled with the game and over 10000 yen.

Held-off buying the original Figma in anticipation of this version, but now I'm having second thoughts. I'm half-wishing I didn't pre-order the thing, or half-hoping I don't get the pre-order because of the price. ARGH! I hate it when impulse wins over logic!

does this version of saber appear in the game? i mean, the fate/stay night game. or does it only appears in the fate unlimited codes
(ID #409334) Posted on 2008/12/12 23:10
It's a limited version of Saber that is only in the unlimited codes. I have no idea about the origin of the character yet, but I need to get the game to find out I guess.

I think it's an awesome figure, but I just don't have much time nowadays for console gaming, and that makes the price too high for me. It's too bad it won't be sold without the game (firsthand; I don't feel like going by Ebay).

Since i have swap magic theres a win/win situation for me that is, a game i could play and figure, but for about $140 or so price+shipping from play-asia i dont know, i might just get the game since im also looking forward to it, maybe even more than the figure. Dont want to use the other method for the game since i found out i wasted 6 months of my life for something(s) that might not even work.

I love the look of Saber Lily and I wish the game came out for the United States... but we all know it'd be highly likely they'll ever bring it over. Which is sad... especially with the high import price tag on such a lovely figure/combo set. Just got to hope for another variation of Saber Lily to come out after the game...

thanks to the people who mentioned swap magic, i might just buy that one of these days. I want this game and the figure, I already have a ps2 just not the right kind to play it without using something to allow it to play games from Japan. I think Saber Lily is pretty high up there on the want list. Didn't pre-order but I'm sure in a few months I'll be searching around for her online.
