Samus Metroid Prime 4 Figma Figure Revealed
Good Smile Company has announced a new Figma action figure of Samus Aran based on her Metroid Prime 4: Beyond suit, revealed alongside Nintendo’s latest trailer for the game. The figure is slated for a late-2026 release window, with preorders opening ahead of that through Good Smile’s regional storefronts and its global online shop.
Inside the Article:
The Figma stands at roughly 6 inches tall in 1/12-style scale, using the line’s standard articulated body so you can actually pose Samus instead of parking her on a shelf. Good Smile’s listing calls it the “Figma Samus Aran: Metroid Prime 4 Ver.” and includes a display stand, multiple interchangeable hands, and arm cannon effect parts for charged shots and beams; some regional listings also mention a Morph Ball-style accessory or additional beam effects as bonus parts.
Availability will follow Good Smile’s usual pattern: direct sales in Japan, distribution through partner retailers in North America and Europe, and a global option via the Good Smile Online Shop for anyone willing to import. If you’ve dealt with Figma runs before, expect a single main production wave with limited restocks rather than a constant, open-ended supply.
Design, Features, and Price
This figure locks in Samus’s updated Metroid Prime 4 armor, with sharper panel lines, more segmented plating on the torso and shoulders, and a cleaner separation between the orange, red, and teal accent zones than older Prime-era suits. The helmet follows the new in-game look with a more angular visor frame and refined vents, matching the sleeker silhouette shown in recent trailers instead of the bulkier Metroid Prime 1–3 proportions.
Articulation is in line with modern Figma bodies: double-jointed knees and elbows, ball-jointed shoulders and hips, torso and waist swivel, and a neck joint that actually lets you hit aiming and “looking up” poses without fighting the armor. Between the alternate hands, cannon effects, and stand, you can set up classic visor-forward firing stances, mid-air jump poses, or low, braced shots that mirror in-game combat. Collectors who already run other Nintendo Figmas will be able to drop Samus into existing flight stands and dioramas without extra hardware.
Pricing lands in typical Figma territory: listed in yen first, then roughly converted to around the $80–$100 USD range before shipping and tax, depending on retailer and exchange rates. You’ll be able to preorder through Good Smile’s own shop plus major hobby outlets and import-friendly retailers. If you’re already juggling gaming spend between software and extras, it’s worth looking at pieces like our breakdown of how Red Dead Redemption’s mobile release handles value and access to keep your budget in check.
Why This Figure Matters for Metroid Fans and Collectors
This is one of the first detailed physical products that shows Samus’s full Metroid Prime 4: Beyond suit from every angle, long before most players will have finished the game on Nintendo Switch. For anyone who likes to study armor lines, paint breaks, and how the visor and cannon actually look under good lighting, a poseable Figma beats pausing a trailer or digging through screenshots.
The timing also matters: locking in a preorder now is usually the only way to get a Figma at close to retail, especially for Nintendo collaborations that tend to spike on the secondary market once the main run sells through. If you skip the initial window, you’re often looking at import markups and auction pricing that make the figure feel a lot less reasonable for what is still articulated PVC on a stand.
More broadly, this Samus drops into a growing wave of premium gaming collectibles that sit next to your console or PC instead of in a toy bin. If you’re already thinking about how to make your setup look and feel better while you play, it pairs well with dialing in your screen and sound for big releases, the same way we talk about tuning a streaming setup in guides like our December streaming upgrade playbook. For collectors, it’s a clean, articulated way to mark Metroid Prime 4’s launch without going straight to multi-hundred-dollar statues.
