Jazwares making new Street Fighter & Mortal Kombat toys - Page 2

It's just the 4 inch Raiden that's canceled. The 6 inch (+ SDCC exclusive) are still on track.

I'll be honest, when I say that I don't really like them... don't get me wrong, I love MK. I guess I've been spoiled with wonderfully detailed figures by companies like NECA, McFarlane, etc, so much so that it disappoints me when I see figures that just aren't as great as they could've & should've been.

I saw the 6 inch ones in a store today. They aren't terrible, Sub-Zero and Scorpion look pretty good (and different). But not to the level that I imagine Neca could have done.

Is Jazwares good at releasing more than a wave or 2 before they throw in the towel like NECA seems to? It's kinda a "6 on one hand 1/2 a dozen on the other" deal.

I'd say they're worse.

Wow...that's not good.

I'm wondering what the Street Fighter figs will look like. They can't be worse than the Hasbro ones. My Chun-Li is a man.

Have you seen their previous Street Fighter figures? Not good.

Considering that figure's 17 years old... But yeah, I hated it when it came out. Still, considering I got most of those GI Joe SFII figures for nothing courtesy of Hasbro, I don't think I have grounds for complaint.

The JW Chunners looked pretty good - not as thick as her SFIV look, but not as skinny as the SOTA figure. She had a lot of sculpted detail too, although that'll probably get smoothed out in the manufacturing process.

It's my understanding that the 3 3/4" Raiden figure's just been pushed back, rather than being totally cancelled...

I saw them too. I couldn't help laughing at the "15 points of Articulation!" sticker on the package.

As if that's something to brag about.

A first look at Jazwares Street Fighter line

Those are ****ing hideous.

*sdp* · 09-10-2011, 09:01 PM

Maybe they look better in person? They look terrible though, I had faith in Jazzwwarez I didn't think the previous stuff they had done with Megaman was as bad as people said but the MK figures were terrible and these look really bad. I guess we haven't seen the MK 3 3/4 figures yet but I hold no hope. I really wanted 3 3/4 SF and MK figures but at t this point I think I rather buy the GI Joe MK/SF figures... At least I still have my SOTA SF figures, I regret not getting more of them more, I could have had the whole collection but I didn't because not all the characters were P1 colors, apparently they all go for a lot now...

*Brodie* · 09-11-2011, 04:39 PM

UGH, on second look I hadn't initially noticed the awful ab joint on some of them, specifically ryu and ken. It goes through the shirt? Come the **** on. What year is it?
