Bring Arts Another Form Cloud 50

Square Enix has slowly been phasing out Play Arts Kai, the 9 inch+ figures which featured in-house Final Fantasy characters along with stylized variant versions of DC, Marvel and more.  In it’s place, Square has been putting out Bring Arts – a 1/12 (ish) scale line more in tune with S.H. Figuarts and Mafex.  Key articulation points, good paint, accessories, and a more traditional sculpting style are present.  Most of the figures released so far have been Japanese specific video games and anime, along with the recent Kingdom Hearts offerings.  Today we are taking a look at a Kingdom Hearts adjacent figure, – “Another Form” Cloud Strife.  This look first made it’s appearance in Kingdom Hearts, but it’s not specifically labeled as such.  He’s also rocked this look in other games like Dissidia since then.

Cloud comes packed with his bandaged sword, 3 sets of hands, single angel wing, extra cape piece and a stand.  Articulation is above average, but they are using single joints for the knees and elbows.   No extra faces or heads.  Overall though, it does what it needs to do, and gets us Final Fantasy figures in a scale and price point easier to handle.  I’m a big fan of FFVII and Cloud, so I wanted to check out Bring Arts with the hope that they do the Remake characters in this format.  So far so good, if they go ahead with that at this level I’m in!

We’ve run him through a session showing what Cloud and Bring Arts can do.  Read on to check out over 40 HD images courtesy of Entertainment Earth!

Now, Square Enix USA has opened up pre-orders for the figure, and revealed their own Limited Version. This exclusive release includes an additional swap out “closed eyes” face part.

See additional details below, and some photos after the jump.

FINAL FANTASY BRING ARTS Cloud Strife Another Form Variant SQUARE ENIX Limited Version – $80.99

FINAL FANTASY BRING ARTS Cloud Strife Another Form Variant – $80.99

FINAL FANTASY VII protagonist Cloud who had wandered into another world now joins the fray as a BRING ARTS figure.

We have recreated the characteristics of Cloud’s face and the saturation of the colors on his clothing, based on Tetsuya Nomura’s illustration. The pauldron on his left shoulder and the armor on his hips are designed so that they won’t interfere with the range of motion, in order to allow for more dynamic posing action. Additionally, fine textural details are apparent on his cape and the bandages wrapped around his buster sword.
Not only can the cape on Cloud’s left shoulder be swapped with a wing, but the accessories included are quite robust, as it comes with the buster sword and a total of four interchangeable hands. You’ll enjoy an amazing variety of poses, in any situation in this figure.

The SQUARE ENIX Limited Version has an additional interchangeable face part, sculpted with Cloud’s eyes closed as if thinking about his next move!

Figure includes display stand.
