I'd been salivating over Cloud Strife for some time and so I finally gave in and made the purchase. I'm so glad I did! He's amazing. The facial sculpt is realistic and just plain gorgeous. All the details of the figure - the hair, the clothing etc are so well done. When it comes to buying figures I know will be top quality, Play Arts Kai has become one of my top picks. If you're a Final Fantasy fan and you get a chance to buy this figure, I highly recommend it. Even if you're not a game fan, anyone who likes Urban Fantasy type figures would love this. I just ordered Zack Fair. Can't wait to have these two guys together!
