Cloud Strife
from FFVII
In Dissidia, Cloud appears as he is
in the original Final Fantasy VII, donned in the SOLDIER uniform
(albeit darker in color tone) & slugging the huge Buster Sword
behind his back.One thing is for sure Cloud is less polygonal here.
This is another magnificent personification of one of the icon of the
gaming world with near perfect sculpt including a good face
(something that let Cloud down time and again in the past), decent
details and apt paintjob.
The only complain from me would
be the fact that it is getting rather boring to see Cloud striking the
usual
pose in his usual brood.
But nevertheless Cloud sells and Square Enix knows it and milk it hard.

Squall Leonhart
from FFVIII
Squall has his "eyes on you".
Alright sorry for the lame pun but I feel Squall really steal the show for this set.
Like
Cloud, Squall's attire differs little from the design from FFVIII but
this time round we can really admire the details of Squall's choice of
black and metallic accessories.
The cross that dangles on his neck as well as the lion's head belt buckle are finely detailed.
The gunblade looks really cool here as well.
I
love Squall's stern expression as those coral blue eyes pierced through
you somehow. The scar also added an edge to Squall though the differ in
skin tone of his face to the rest of his body stuck out like a sore
thumb.

Zidane Tribal
from FFIX
Unlike the midget everyone slighted as a hero of his
own FF title, Zidane actually look prominent under the redesign by
Tetsuya Nomura for Dissidia.
The same clown-like dressing, the
Saiya-jin like primate tale and the girly blonde crop are still
featured but Zidane's sharp facial features shone illustriously.
The
pose was rather unnatural but I like the amount of details included in
the attire, the Mage Smasher (twin daggers), the dagger holster etc.

Tidus
from FFX
Not much difference from the original design and the pose looks to take a leaf off the Wikipedia page.
One thing for sure I like the facial design as compared to that version of Tidus from the Trading Arts Vol 2.
There was more manly grit in this Tidus who looks to beef up a bit from the predecessor.
Once
again kudos have to be given to the sculpor for a stable sculpt and eye
for details especially the beautiful long sword by the name of
Brotherhood.

The Warrior of
Light
from Final Fantasy
The least familiar of this line up which was almost
unrecognisable even for those old enough to play the original FF on the
Nintendo Entertainment System who actually live to see the Warrior of
Light behind the 16 bit pixels.
Donned in medieval style armor
complete with a majestic bull horn helmet, a long flowing cape which
pulled the figurine backwards over long period of time, as well as
sweet long sword and a shield which follows the color theme.
The figurine stand at close to 15 cm but always look to take a backseat from his more contemporary counterparts.
