You know I didn't realise it had been 10 years since Crisis Core came out, I guess that was part of their motivation for remaking Zack. Plus he'll fit right in to people's AC or Remake collections.

Hopefully we don't have too long to wait, for some reason in my mind I feel like he's due out February but that's not been confirmed, right?

I just want a collection of how FF7 would've looked if Zack had survived (basically I want a Zack figure that can ride a future Hardy Daytona - hope they don't limit his leg articulation like they did with the original Play Arts Zack). I went as far as modding my original Play Arts Cloud to give him the double shoulder pauldrons:

I don't think I'll be able to go that far with the price of these PAKs though!

Not exactly play arts kai, but Zidane and Vivi are getting bring arts figures, it's just been posted on facebook. No pictures yet.

Oh man he looks so good!

I imagine that load of hair limits upwards neck movement though, is a little noticeable in the poses they chose for him.

I really like the pose matching they've got going on:

That’s such a bummer for play arts kai collector like me. But maybe they think bring arts scale suits the chibi design more i guess.

The best i can hope for is a dissidia zidane play arts kai in the future...

There's a vote on Facebook for who can join Zidane and Vivi in their bring arts line, the choices are:

Freya
Beatrix
Kuja
Steiner

So far Beatrix is winning.

I really like the texture and weathering on zack’s pants. At least it differentiates him a bit from remake cloud pak. Loving those shoulder pauldrons too. Hopefully we’ll get angeal and genesis too, slim chance i know...

So good to finally get a Zack with a choice of fists (closed fists, woohoo!)

As you can see the original play arts one was supposed to have spare ones but they were cut from the final product.

And thank god they've improved his face

BECAUSE REASONS :ffuuu:

I've gotten it to stay for the moment. Guess I jusst wasn't plugging the wing in to the spot on his back super tight. So it's staying for right now. I'd love to get those metal stands for the PAK figures one day though, the plastic ones are shit. With the wing Sephiroth is really top heavy--it's hard to make him stand without him cocking a hip in one direction like a sassy lady.

So early reports suggest Zack will be 266mm while remake Cloud is 273mm

A little bit disappointing, rethinking what I'm gonna purchase now...

Really? I dont know why square keeps messing with the scaling. They clearly have all the info on character’s bios and heights. So why cant just they scale it accordingly. I’m already pretty miffed that squall pak is shorter than cloud...

The height difference is strange... but for me, not a deal breaker. I'll just pose Cloud kneeling with the Buster Sword.

Its not andeal breaker, but still. With the ever rising price, they still cant do the scaling properly. This goes back all the way to the old play arts figure.

Even pak from a same line sometimes have messed up scaling too. I think its because they do not plan ahead on which figures they gonna include in the line. So over time, when they decided to revisit a line, the scaling is inconsistent to the older paks already in that line (case in point: pak ac vincent is shorter than newer pak figures, while we know that vincent is supposed to be one of the tallest characters in vii and ff universe in general. Probably second after sephiroth...)

It's a deal breaker for me, sadly. Even the original PA Zack lined up fine with the original PA Cloud. I don't get it, they go ahead and spend money making new moulds for Zack (I'm sure they could've got away with using some parts from Cloud on Zack, even thighs or boots), but then try and save money by making him slightly smaller? So even their Buster Swords will be different sizes?

Was really thinking of getting into the Remake line because of Zack, now I might just have to stick with Zack on solo display.
