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.

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.

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.

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.

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.."

That's awesome.

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

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.

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

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.
