Square Enix has just recently announced their plans for a more advanced and improved version to their very popular Play Arts line. They are set to pay more attention to detail, add more articulation and more additional parts with their first figures being Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar from Resident Evil 5 which will retail for about $40 each.

They will also be doing a reincarnation of their Final Fantasy Master Creatures line with Final Fantasy: Creatures Kai that will be a 5 piece mini statue line which will be $40 for the set. Now, I'm far more excited about this because it has a statue from my favorite game, Final Fantasy VI, being the Magitek Armor with little Terra perched up on top. The rest of the figures in this set are Bahamut Sin from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, Brothers from Final Fantasy VIII, Valefor from Final Fantasy X and Zelera the Death Seraph from Final Fantasy XII.

They also released images for the newest Final Fantasy Trading Arts figures that will include Sephiroth and Yuffie from Final Fantasy VII and Zidane and Vivi from Final Fantasy IX which you'll be able to pick up for $20. With the announcement for their fourth series, they have also restocked the third series of Trading Arts figures that included Aerith, Tidus, Balthier and Fran. You can head on over to Square Enix's Online Store to pick those up now, and keep an eye out for the rest of the toys to be available for pre-order soon.

So, which ones are you most looking forward to? Will you be picking up Square Enix's Resident Evil figures, or will you be passing them up for the Hot Toys versions?
