![]() Basically, the piece of the handle that the metal pieces connect to has a spring-loaded rotation ability. I’ll try to explain here to the best of my ability with the diagram below how the hand guard thing works. Also it’s the main mechanism that allows the hand guard to expand: ![]() Those are what hold the hand guard to the blade. It can be seen a little more clearly here ( yellow). Do you also see the little piece of metal on the inside ( yellow)? In this screenshot the pivot point for the hand guard can be seen very well ( red). Cloud tends to use this form the most in battles: In this form the sword’s blade ( red) and the hand guard ( green) are fully extended. The second stage of the sword is what I like to call the battle ready stage. This stage is the mainly to allow the sword be carried easily in the sheath, as seen in the first screenshot: In the second screenshot, though it’s not very clear you can see the blade ( green) and the hand guard ( red) are closed. In the second and third stages the hand guard opens up via these pivot points (marked in red) and becomes rectangle in shape. Notice in the first screenshot that the hand guard is closed and diamond shaped. Below is a screenshots of the sword in the first stage. The first stage is the one in which the blade and the hand guard are closed. The base sword has 5 stages to it and each stage is defined by how opened or closed the blade is. It’s the only sword (outside the 2 switch blade swords) with moving parts. The base sword is the most complicated of all the other swords so I’m going to be spending the most time talking about it. Did Cloud use all of them during the movie? Yes he did, and I’m going to show you all of them and how they integrate into the main weapon with screenshots from the movie. However, some are confused as to how this sword combines the 6 individual swords and more so, what the 6 individual swords are. Through the movie Cloud used this to his advantage especially during the final battle with Sephiroth. It was a sword that actually comprised of 6 individual swords that could be combined to form one big one. The article has not been modified to fit this website (or your screen).įor those of us who have seen the movie, one of the coolest and also most stupefying elements in it was Cloud Strife’s sword. I added this part at the end.Ĭloud Strife's 6 Piece Sword in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children describes the mechanism behind Cloud's weapon using scene by scene screenshots to demonstrate its assembly process. ![]() I've also written up my own little section about when and where the two switch blades are added to the assembly because I'm in complete disagreement of Raven_237's assessment of the situation. ![]() However, I have added a few of my own comments which should appear in red boxes. That's right, the bulk of this is not my work. However, since that site is now defunct, I made my own local copy of the page so it will never disappear again. This article was shamelessly stolen and copied from where it was submitted by Raven_237. The First Sword (Cloud's 6 Part Sword in Advent Children) Play Arts Kai Cloud Strife Review - Final Fantasy.Pre-Order for Play Arts Kai NOW OPEN The Converg.My only complaint was that the particular branch I pick-up in always seems crowded and they seem to have a tendency to run out of bags to put your purchased items in. During pick-up, I was allowed to inspect the item for defects before leaving the store. If I'd had the item shipped from Japan or the US, it probably would've taken longer. I was notified that I could pick-up the item around May 15, which was a couple of weeks after the official release date (April 22). Store - 9/10 I purchased this via one of the last Play Arts Kai Philippines group pre-orders from the local Big Boys Toy Store. Personally, my favorite character from FF7 is Vincent (you can find Jeri's review of his PAK figure here) but Cloud is still in my top three so this was a must-have figure for me even if I still wasn't entirely sold on the PAK line. This particular Play Arts Kai (PAK) figure is based on Cloud from the film instead of the game. The CGI film Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is set two years after the main FF7 game. Cloud Strife is the main character of Final Fantasy VII (FF7) and several of its sequels and spin-offs.
