Cool review. I've been eyeing that Red XIII for a while now.
And you're not alone in wanting that Cid figure. He's gotten the shaft in just about every single line of FFVII products. WTF?

Is the author not a Cait Sith fan then?

poor Cait Sith sure he was mostly useless and a traitor to boot but his slot limit break was pretty entertaining
I could definitely go for the red and yuffie, whats the standard price for these things tho?

What do you guys think,I always called her "Yu-ffie" from Wu-tai,when my friends always called her "Yuff-ie" I never went back and listened to the the way they said it in Advent Children.Not a big deal.What have you heard?

I usually named him "Useless" and threw him out of the party as soon as I could.One of Nomura's weirder design's.

Hmm. I can't remember much of Advent Children (came close to falling asleep when I watched it, IIRC), but I've always gone with YU-ffie, stressing the first syllable (the original Japanese name appears to be ユフィ).

From the romanji translator. "ユフィ = yufi"
Thanks man.I kind of figured.They usually have cute names for all the girls.YUFF-E just sounds weird.

Well, that would've made for a dramatically different movie.

I'll be sure to badger Square to release Barret and Cid in their Final Fantasy 7 Play Arts line, it'd kick a** to display them stealing the Hardy Daytona from Cloud on my video game rack.
Having Dr. Sid from "Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within" do that just doesn't count.

Yeah, it strikes me as odd that they went with what appears to be a relatively accurate Beretta 92 for a game featuring such weapons as Cloud's buster sword.

Does anyone know what it would be worth to keep all of the Play Arts. Vol 2 in their packages over the course of many, many, many years?

I've never played as much as a second of FF7 (and most likely never will), but those poses were cracking me the hell up. Your hatred for that small furry-ish thing shines through loud and clear.

FWIW, I saw the FF VII Vol. 2 Yuffie, Sephiroth, and Vincent figures (not sure about Red XIII) at the "Fandom" store at the Mall of Georgia this weekend, along with some Vol. 1 (Tifa, Aeris, Cloud) and Advent Children figures. So they are out there to some degree...

Nobody can predict what becomes collectible and what doesn't. Buy 'em if you want 'em and don't sweat what the resale value will be in 10 years.
