«©NCSX» Every time we see Cloud, he seems to look slightly different from his original depiction in the original Final Fantasy VII game. Back in 1997, Cloud was a punk kid with a shock of blonde hair, a boyish physique, and baggy pants. In ensuing incarnations, Cloud either got grungier as seen in Kingdom Hearts or more feminine as shown in the Final Fantasy VII Advent Children film.
For Square Enix's upcoming Static Arts Final Fantasy VII rendition of Cloud Strife, the popular hero is decidedly retro. As in, reflecting the design sensibilities of the original Cloud as sketched and illustrated by Tetsuya Nomura. Cloud's face is sharply cut and his hair is best described as a haphazard sculpture of blond locks. A regulation-issue uniform, brown boots, and a big Buster Sword round out the feature set of the figure. For the backdrop, Cloud stands on wooden planks and is "bathed" in the protective light of Aerith's church. Yellow flowers sprout at his feet while a hazy mist spreads along the planks. Dimensions: 9.24 x 6.5 x 13.25"
