Our resident Final Fantasy addict, Rich, is here with the lowdown on the new Cloud Strife box set. Take it away…

With the original series of
Final Fantasy VII play arts action figures still flying hot off the shelves, this week saw a new release in the form of the Cloud Strife & Hardy Daytona box set! Just as they did with the
Advent Children figure range, makers Kotobukiya have decided to give fans an extra treat by releasing the iconic hero astride his mighty motorbike Hardy Daytona. Fans of the original game will remember this famous vehicle from the cut scenes and mini-games.This new
Final Fantasy box set contains the same Cloud figure released individually, complete with alternate hands and, of course, the famous Buster Sword. So if you haven’t already purchased him (and if not, why not!?) you can bag him as part of this great deal.
The Hardy Daytona itself is presented in exact scaled detail, together with rotating rubber wheels, suspension pistons and a retractable bike stand. The features carried over onto the bike really are incredible, with every little nook and cranny filled with moving engine parts and game-accurate detail, right down to the grubby bandages holding the exhaust together!
This box set is a must have for any Final Fantasy fan, so grab one whilst you still can, whack on some extra hold hair gel and prepare to fight the forces of evil! Or, y’know, just put him on your shelf….
Cheers Rich. I’m starting to see why you love the character so much. This is a fantastic set. I just wish you’d offer us some tips on copying his hairstyle- you’ve mastered it!
