Original Article: The Metroid Prime series will return in 2025 and ahead of this, First 4 Figures has shared a "sneak peek" at its new 10" Samus Gravity Suit PVC statue, which will be available to pre-order next week on 8th August 2024 and is apparently "coming soon".
This statue will follow on from the Metroid Prime 'Samus Varia Suit' statue, the Metroid Prime Meta Ridley statue and also the Samus Helmet. Although pricing for this new statue hasn't been revealed yet, the Varia Suit statue is currently available for $164.99 (in the collector's edition) and $181.49 (in the exclusive edition). So the new statue could potentially be a similar price.
As noted on F4F's official website, this new statue will also be available in exclusive and collector's editions, and if you sign up to the First 4 Figures email, you'll get $10 off when pre-orders go live next week (via a code to your inbox).
You can see the Gravity Suit in action in Metroid Prime Remastered, which made its debut on the Switch in February last year. If you haven't already played this game or series before, it's well worth your time. We gave it an outstanding score of 10 out of 10 stars and also happens to be one of the Switch's best-looking games.
As for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Nintendo has finally shared a first look at this game. You can learn more in our original story:

Got the Varia suit version. Quite pleased with it.
Still waiting for the Varia suit, but I might still pick this up, especially if we could potentially see the Phazon Suit in the future. I really hope that just like how the Varia Suit included Samus's left arm in a different pose, maybe this one could let you swap out Samus's Power Beam with the Wave Beam; Samus looks good in purple, but there can always be more purple!
I like the less bulky dread model, this looks pretty cool.
Why is her head not centered on her neck? Looks off.
Literally the worst colour combination they could have used. How about the incredibly clean looking light suit instead?
Here we go again…
Open wallet
It's like they just took the varia suit one, moved the arms and legs a bit, and added some purple.
I'm still waiting for the varia suit one I pre-ordered. I'm not sure this one is different enough for another purchase.
Already got a Figma of the Varia Suit, but this looks pretty cool!
Looks great, happy for those who will get it!
That is a thing of beauty
The sculpt look great, but the pose is super awkward and not dynamic at all.
@PinderSchloss Not seeing that at all.
Fantastic! Now if we could get confirmation on Prime 2 and 3 remasters…please!
I'd rather spend my money on a Metroid game.
No wave beam, but I still preordered it. If they're designing these statues to match the key art from the game, then I'm excited to see them announce a Phazon Suit statue!
ughhhhhhhh my poooooor wallet
@PinderSchloss Necks, how do they work?
@Moistnado I get that sentimentality, but I was recently sorting through my storage and found a F4F Samus statue I had from years ago and decided to look at the current value.
I was blown away that it was selling for thousands of dollars AUD on the secondhand market. So, if you get lucky, these can be a decent investment.
@RunninBlue I think you have a point there. Make sure you don't take it out of the box!
Personally, I would not mind a new version of Zero Suit Samus. Looking at their older version, something about it just felt... off. It just didn't seem of professional quality, in my opinion. Even Figma toys looked better than that.
So a new version that looks more like her in-game character model (whether it's from Metroid: Zero Mission, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Metroid: Other M, or even the Super Smash Bros. series) is something I would definitely go for.
