Series 2. US versions always omit 1 figure. In series 1, it's Penelo. In series 2, it would be Basch. ...and still no "leading man" Chibi figure. Grrr... For those who are interested in getting singles of the Trading Arts Mini series 1, there are some for sale at Toy Kingdom for Php 299.75 each. For blind boxes, go to 2Rats at Php 299.75 each.

Gundam_G05, I highly recommend Toy Kingdom in Greenhills V-mall. I checked yesterday and they still have some Cloud and other characters of the series 1. If you are far from Manila, I recommend that you order through the internet. Poweranime is a store which my dad and I trusted for years now. They offer the whole Trading Arts set for a reasonable price. I bought mine from there as well. Click here The item price is $22.49 and the shipping fee to anywhere in the Philippines is $18 for Global Priority Mail (30 days to arrive upon authentication of order) or $24 for Airmail Parcel Post (15 days to arrive upon authentication of order). Very reasonable if you ask me, especially that the Peso is rising against the Dollar everyday. For Trading Arts Mini series 1 review along with Hi-Res Pic, here. (sorry, Japanese)

I saw around 3 of Cloud yesterday. I think that Toy Kingdom has a "delivery service" if you are far from their store location. If there is none in Toy Kingdom, try your luck at 2RATS. However, its blind boxes in 2RATS (Shoppesville Arcade)

location is not a problem coz m working in ortigas. the problem would be i might run out of stock. i checked megamall last friday and i only saw vhan.
I also saw the blind boxes in 2rats but the problem is i only want cloud and there is a low chance to get cloud if i will try my luck

Also, if Toy Kingdom has no more stock of Cloud, you could tell them to reserve one for you when they restock. I did asked them once regarding Fullmetal Alchemist Play Arts and they reserved one Edward (ie: the best-seller) for me.
If still not working, how about ordering through that online store that I recommended? Surely you can get Cloud through there as well as all other figures. You could also try Yes-Asia.
If I find a site with separate figures for sale, I will tell you immediately.

Ok. I really hope that you find one.
Several people say that Trading Arts Mini is too expensive (ie: 2-inch or less figure for a whopping Php 300.00) I don't like those kind of people. They never saw the impressive side of these: Intricacy and "Chibi" has never blended so well before.

ur right about that. these figs are very detailed and so "cute". my only complain is they should've add some articulation.

Yes, even just the neck part would be fine.
