New Street Fighter action figures.
 
This line is supposed to rival Marvel Legends.. They look great so far, but Ryu's face needs to be a bit more anime-fied.

Check them out.

Chung Li's arms need a LOT of work... they look all deformed and bendy figure like.

Dontebell 03-05-2004 09:08 PM

they all great,except for bison.

jeff the cheff 03-05-2004 09:30 PM

I think they need a lot of work. Ryu looks like a woman and chun Li's arms are....weird. They have nothing on Marvel Legends.

GK Punk 03-05-2004 09:31 PM

I don't like 'em :|

愛 03-05-2004 10:23 PM

Yeah, they're not that great...

Yikes. Well, if you guys have suggestions, the toy company actually listens.. People complained about Sagat having a pupil at first and they removed it immediately. Just like that. So go ahead and tell them what's what.

EDIT: Just a sample of how sweet this company is.. They released the pics just today, and since many people said they didn't like Ryu's head sculpt, they released this statement:
"Be advised... our painter has been tied to the Street Fighter 3 Alpha machine and will never paint Ryu in drag again!

The new head is well on its way and you'll see it next week. "

This is the second time the fans' response has caused them to change the product, within an extremely short period of time. So allow me to reiterate.. If you guys don't like somethin' about these figures, let them know, because it actually has a very good chance of being fixed. :)

hey why they want us to pick which character should be in series 2?

Brodie 03-06-2004 09:42 AM

That's a good company, changing for fans. I wish Playmates would be more like that. I think these might end up good. I need my namesake though. Ken.

Dane E5R 03-06-2004 11:39 AM

And another example:
"As for Chun Li...she has ball shoulders under the rubber top. We will stick with the double hinge elbows but we're revising the arms a bit also.."

GK Punk 03-06-2004 07:27 PM

That's awesome.

I think Sagat and Bison are a little too Bulky.
But then they are based on teh Alpha versions, so...

Ninjatron 03-06-2004 11:55 PM

Sodom RULES.

These had better be good! It's great to finally get a decent Street Fighter line after Resarus disapeared and other plans went belly up.

Sayonara.

Brodie 03-07-2004 08:18 PM

What happened to Resarus?

Ninjatron 03-07-2004 08:55 PM

I don't know. But they're not around any more, as far as I can tell. To bad, they did good work.

Sayonara.

Dontebell 03-07-2004 09:15 PM

i think they change it name to plan b toys.
btw,i take that back about bison he cool.

Dane E5R 03-16-2004 04:18 AM

Dr. Doom 03-16-2004 04:55 AM

Resaurus had a lot of issues. I've heard quite stories about them not paying their sculptors, having internal confrontations in the company, etc. Long story short, the company just kind of fell apart, and most of their talent moved elsewhere. The majority is at Plan B Toys now, but some of them went to Palisades as well.

Brodie 03-16-2004 07:43 PM

I'll buy that Ryu.but it looks like the head was photoshopped on.

Jo Dawn 03-16-2004 08:12 PM

Yeah, that Ryu is alot better.
