Questions about the figures aside, that Chrono Trigger retrospective video was an incredible piece of work. If there are any fans of the game reading this comment who haven't seen that video, go watch it. Complex's story on the game deserves all of the views and the nostalgia will fill your soul.

Chrono trigger is , somehow, a time machine

really insightful! thank you very much. I'm a digital sculptor from Brazil, and I'm looking into trying my hand on anime figures. I love Chrono Trigger and that inspires me A LOT!

Who else is googling these figures right now? 👀

Poor frog fell down. This game was the first JRPG I finished. Good memories.

I have the pendant scene back from a trip to Japan... I knew the figures were uncommon, but I had no idea my lone pendant scene was so sought after! Thanks for making my day :)

I absolutely loved this. 10 minutes devoted to 5 figures. So pure.

I regret not buying these when they came out SO much. Man, they even released it in the US! God. Would love to have these sooo much.

That was a great video, but the best part was Frog falling off in the last scene. Great work!

such a great game, no other game like it and the way you narrated the video made me feel nostalgic of the time when I played it

Finishing up at work then I'm going to watch this on the ole big screen!

You have some of the best videos on KZread. Seriously, they're almost on my level. I really enjoy them!

I LOooooooVE Bandai blind box figures! I collect the Gundam and Kirby PVC figures, and have noticed they jump in value quickly.

How did I miss these >_

Out of all the snes games that I had I save only 1 complete in the box with all the maps and stuff it came with. Chrono trigger. Not sure why. Never knew it would ever get this popular. Had no problems getting rid of ff3 or super mario rpg. I haven't popped this cartridge in since the late 90s. I wonder if the battery is still good.

Awesome video! And, oh no! You're Frog at the end of it! Tragic! I don't know about you, but the box art for the game always bugged me. I bet it was an early drawing that ended up being used. I mean, Marle and Crono are using a duel tech, but she's dealing lightning magic from the looks of it. Definitely not a water/cure technique. And why is that particular enemy fighting them in the snow? If memory serves me, that enemy never existed in the game's ice age.

@noksookhao

2 ай бұрын

It's not a dual tech, it is the triple tech Arc Impulse, haha. When I played it back in 1995 it used to really bother me as well because I thought it looked like Marle using fire, but after replaying a decade or so later and realizing what tech it was, the art started to make sense, 😂. Not sure why it is all snowy, but I've heard it was a scene from the original (i.e. not the new dungeon with the same name added to the DS re-release) Singing Mountain dungeon that was cut, so it is possible that Heckran was originally a boss there instead of the cave in 1000AD. No idea if that is legit or a "my dad worked as Square" fact though. My guess is as you suggested, that the art was done before all of the details were finalized and the setting for the battle changed in the final game. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
