Spine-busting collectible coming from Apex Toys
Just yesterday, we reported on Storm Collectibles’ upcoming premium figure of Guilty Gear badguy… erm… Sol Badguy. But what if you aren’t all about Sol, what if you’re all about the mischievous but thoroughly loveable Jack-O Valentine? Well, fret not, as Apex Toys has also announced that the Halloween lovin’ gal is getting her own figure at some point in the near future.
As revealed during WonFest 2022, (and reported by Siliconera), the new Jack-O figure is scaled at 1/9, which translates to roughly eight-to-nine inches in height… or at least she would, if she were standing upright. Y’see, Apex Toys has teased the new figure with a suspiciously familiar silhouette, suggesting that our girl will be sporting her back-breaking, censor-worrying, meme-creating, crouch pose — the very same pose that took the internet by storm last year in the form of the “Jack-O Challenge.”

Apex Toys did not release any other info in regards to the new Jack-O pose figure, so we don’t know the release window, price, or pre-order dates. But given that we don’t even get to see an unpainted prototype, or even any new concept art, we are probably still a long way out from having to explain to our friends and relatives why the centerpiece of our lounge is a young woman in a bodysuit and a Halloween mask is essentially… well… “presenting.”
It’s a crouch pose, mom. You wouldn’t understand.
Guilty Gear Strive is available now on PlayStation and PC. Jack-O Valentine is available as DLC.
