Square Enix has opened up pre-orders for their new Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII – Aerith Gainsborough Play Arts Kai Figure. This release is based on her appearance in Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII for the PSP.

Look for the figure to be released in December. See the new photos by clicking the headline of the story.

From the world of FINAL FANTASY VII, one of the most beloved titles from the FINAL FANTASY franchise, We present to you Aerith Gainsborough. Depicted from the ending footage of CRISIS CORE FINAL FANTASY VII, seven year prior to the events of FINAL FANTASY VII. Our designers have paid great care in recreating her feminine form and the texture of her clothing, for a finish that looks very accurate to her presence in-game. We tried to express Aerith’s identity as someone who carries the burden of being the last of the ancient race Cetera, but lives her life beautifully.

With interchangeable face parts – one which features a soft yet determined expression as well as one with her deep in prayer. Using the other included accessory parts & display stand, you can recreate various scenes.

Fenrir, the motorcycle, has attachments to store all of the various swords as well.

Final Fantasy VII.  No matter what Square has done since, I still come back to this.  Great story, great world building, great visuals.  It’s continued on for over 20 years in multiple game formats and even a sequel in the form of a movie.  Now they are set to return to the original game and REMAKE it for modern systems.  I can’t think of anything I’d want more in a console game.  Square Enix blew the roof off E3 back in 2016 with a demo of the new game, but things have gone mostly quiet since.  That hasn’t stopped the merchandising arm of the company though, because they’ve released Play Arts Kai versions of Cloud and Barret to match their new/old look in the demo.

These guys originally dropped last year, but they’ve slowly been filling out US retailer’s inventory.  Cloud is even getting a new color version to closer match the look of the orignal game’s blue uniform.  I finally got a hold of my copies, and wanted to share a gallery showing them off.  Read on to check some additional quick thoughts and over 90 HD images courtesy of Entertainment Earth!
