a lot of people mistakenly assume 1/35th Soldiers means that there are supposed to be 35 Soldier figurines to collect but all that are in the game are all you were meant to collect... 1/35th is a modeling scale meaning every 1 inch of the figure or model equals 35 inches on the real thing, meaning a 2" figure would equal a 70" (5'10") person, people who build models know what i'm talking about... sure a few things were dropped or left unfinished but the 1/35th Soldiers were not among them...

for the topic at hand, doesn't some of Tifa's Limit Breaks have the water property as well?.. not sure if i was stoned or half asleep but i think i remember Dolphin Blow healing a water property monster in one of my playthroughs, but it was so long ago i'm not sure anymore...
