		Okay, right now I'm playing through Lindblum in FF IX. I went through the Business District, and I saw this shop called "Polom's Action Figures". Anyone else think this is another FF allusion?

Adam mcduck - "Peace is but a shadow of death, desperate to forget its painful past...": TALK - I'm a user who works in the shadows, unpraised and unnoticed... {{{time}}} I've never noticed that before. Good find! Seem's like a reference to Palom, let's face it IX is full of references Locke, Cloud, Squall, etc, so it seems likely.

		How about Palom and Porom? That's what I thought.

Adam mcduck - "Peace is but a shadow of death, desperate to forget its painful past...": TALK - I'm a user who works in the shadows, unpraised and unnoticed... {{{time}}} Whoops! I just assumed it said Palom. But I guess it could quite easily be a reference to both.

		So do we add it to the list of allusions?

		As Adam said, I think it's a reference to the both of them.

		I've found characters in Lindblum named Elena and Guy, and a few others, but I left my PS memory card at my sister's house and can't re-check at the moment.

		There's a whole document on FF9 references here. [1].

		This is sorta the other way around, but Edge's victory pose in FFIV DS looks exactly like Zidane's (with the backflip).
