Nice photos as always Tony!

Just wondering, do you prefer this Cloud version or the AC version? I don't own either, but if I were to go for it, I feel the AC version is much better, especially considering the accessory count too.

[Tony_Bacala]

As a figure, the AC version has more going on. Soft goods, alternate arm, tons of sword options. But the simplicity of the REMAKE version and it being based on the classic look is also a draw point.

Both are really well done, solid figures structurally, so it just depends on which look you prefer. I have both.

And Sephiroth from AC, which has some cloud shots:

So this remake doesn't come with a cape?

[Tony_Bacala]

No, just what's in the box shot in the gallery.

Woah, thanks Tony!! That AC one looks sooo good! I missed out on it when it was first available for sale for around 100 CAD, and now its a bit pricey.

BUT... I saw photos of a new version of Fenrir at a Toyshow (maybe here on Toyark actually...). They had the AC version of Cloud on it. So I am hoping they will re-release him or maybe have a bundle with Fenrir. That I would definitely be interested in getting, as long as the price is decent !

I still wish this figures didn't have ratchets in their ankles but otherwise these figures are great

[Tony_Bacala]

Yeah, they are weird. Hard to get them angled while still flat to ground without a two handed adjustment session. Cloud was better here for that because he has a swivel in upper thigh. So you can get the rocker set, then twist the thigh till it's flat. Not perfect, but better.

That being said, they always seem to click in at a position that makes them lean too far forward or backward, pain in ass.

[pikajew]

Agreed. For the 3 figures I have of play arts Kai I wish it got better but that's been my only complaints with them
