In January, Square Enix asked fans to vote on a scene from the legendary Final Fantasy VII to be transformed into LEGO form, and the iconic Sector 5 Slums Church, where Cloud fatefully encounters Aerith for the first time, won in a landslide. As far as we are aware, only two sets have ever been made: One is kept in a sealed vault inside Square Enix, alongside a finished 2D-HD remaster of Chrono Trigger (probably), and the other just sold at auction for $12,500.
As reported by GamesRadar+, this seemingly one-of-a-kind set is now in a super fan's home. You can offer to take it off their hands, with bids starting at just over $16k. We hope a couple of LEGO barrels were included to be dropped from the rafters to deter Shinra soldiers; we'd have a hell of a time playing with this pricey piece.
What do you think of this great modern video game age treasure? Does it belong in a museum? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.

Is that HD remaster of Dragon Quest VIII in the vault too?
@RBMango yes, sitting under FF Tactics remake
@Vivisapprentice @RBMango Its a wondrous place, full of many priceless treasures
Not really anywhere near worth it. Maybe if it was the entire sector of Midgar from the beginning of the game I would pay $200 for it, maybe.
Just wait for the 4000 replicas on Etsy. Haha.
If you look closely in the dark corner of the vault you'll find a turn based FF7 Remake
@TomasVrboda what do you mean by entire sector? The train station? The mako reactor?
@RBMango
Along with the Parasite Eve trilogy, Xenogears, Vagrant Story, the rumoured FFIX remake, FF tactics remaster and FFXIII remake
I'm confused, for 1 grand I can make the same set for you, but am more than happy to keep adding zeroes to the price tag the apple way.
