Final Fantasy's Odin has always been a bit of a badass, and I don't expect his Final Fantasy XIII iteration to be much different, especially as this one transforms into a horse like some kind of mad Beast Wars robot. Square Enix's Play Arts Kai line has seized the opportunity to basically make Transformers. first with Shiva's motordyke, and now with Odin.
Even as a prototype, this figure is pretty intimidating. Standing at 12.6 inches tall in regular form and 16.4 in horse form, Odin will doubtless bully the other toys on your shelf. He's been designed so that the Play Arts Kai figure of Lightning can ride the bastard!
The figure is due to hit Japan sometime this year and will set you back 20,790 Yen. Why must toys be so bloody expensive?

thanks for picking up jim's slack ;-)
Jesus might get Christmas once a year, but Odin gets Wednesday every week. Let us dwell upon this while hanging from the Tree of Woe.
