I have considered making a new version of this video. It might be a while since nothing has really happened with the franchise lately, but all that DLC would be included.
Man what a nice video. Though I'm not the best at fighting games, I found Tekken to be probably my favorite among everything else. Specially that adventure mode in Tekken 6 it's been by far one of my fav experiences ever in the PS2 era and even on my Xbox... I think I should buy it again and play it now on my PC lol Thanks y saludos desde Mexico
Asim Ali who won the 2012 Tekken tag 2 tournament in uk sold me the 1st place prizes of Yoshimitsu statue and ttt2 signed frame artwork for only £250! I got lots of tekken merch including the Paul plush maybe unless stolen by my neighbour, she also stole my Nina & Anna merch inc statues but bought an Anna statue again the t3 ones I’m talking about also got the ttt2 statues of em plus other characters. Is the variant red n black sails ttt2 statue rare? I think the framed artwork is my rarest tekken merch.
@@proyteam they technically are beta versions of the game. Tekken 7 is a weird one cause the game was in arcades for a very long time. To the point you could argue the arcade was not a test version. But that was still the original purpose of arcade versions.
I am impressed you made an entire video talking about how rare things are without once mentioning numbers. Isn't how many there are of something a factor in determining its rarity? Also, do you have any sources besides "trust me, bro"?
There is no real factor for determining rarity but technically quantity determines rarity, but the value is 100% based on demand and nothing else. Unfortunately, unlike many other toy series and genres, there is no current database for Tekken merchandise, so documentation, in general, is almost non-existent.
played a mod version of one of the tekkens..looked like tekken 2 cause i remember a dark street stage. they had a variant of jack . called burning Jack. lol mfs was on fire. and as a kid shit just amazed me for some reason. he's been my main every since😂
Editors Note: - There were NOT intended as limited editions figures. They seemed to have sold poorly but it is currently unconfirmed what the truth is. - Technically they are more considered toys/dolls rather than statues.
Lot of info here that’s all over the place here but I appreciate the perspective. I actually have an insanely large collection of TEKKEN stuff and have been showing some of it to Harada-san as well (some stuff he forgot about). I think I’ll do a x/Twitter thread for TEKKEN merch and info. There’s so much treasure that hasn’t been highlighted before.
Hello tekken fans I found this video (awesome and inciteful video btw) on my front page, ive never been huge into tekken but ive always wanted to get into it but i immediately clicked on it because as of a couple months ago i ran across a rare set of tekken 2 keychains from most likely japan and that might sound not out of the ordinary but i cannot find any information on them at all and dont even know if i own the full set. i have a bunch of them and started selling them and cannot find any official documentation on them, if anyone is interested in helping me figure out this mystery or someone who can then please drop a comment. Genuinley think i came across something lowkey here
I actually own the Tekken 2 Banpresto Yoshimitsu plush in good condition with the tag. I’ve been trying to find a price for this guy but he’s very rare and I’ve never seen any listings for him since. Got him in a lot for $30 along with the Tekken 2 Jack and Heihachi plush
I won a poster of King Praying in a church (His level in Tekken 2) in a local Tekken 2 tournament that hung on my wall for years. I lost the poster and now i cant even find a print of it online 😢
In terms of figures I have to bring up the Amakuni/Hobby Japan Lili figure. There are two variants: a P1 white outfit and a P2 black outfit. The black one is fairly easy to find between $150-$250; however the white is much more desirable as it’s more emblematic of the character and can go for $350 - $500. Lili also has a Queens Gate book illustrated by Kazuaki Morita that is fully compatible with the Lost Worlds system. This is what the aforementioned figure is derived from. Queens Gate had a spin-off PSP game that also features this rendition of Lili. Similarly Lili is also featured as a Tamer in the 3DS game: Digimon World Re:Digitize: Decode. This design of Lili provided by Yasuda Suzuhito. Yoshimitsu has two very, very expensive figures one by Prime 1 studios in the Premium Masterline and another by Kotobukiya in the Fine Arts line. There are some pretty cool Tekken themed Bana-pass out there that are highly limited. And cool Tekken 5 data cards as well as Timeout (Namco’s defunct domestic arcade chain) gift cards and posters. There is a fairly obscure Tekken TCG cartridge for WonderSwan. The last thing I’ll bring up is the somewhat obscure Tekken 3 for Bleemcast. This is an unlicensed disc that would load a game specific PS1 emulator for Dreamcast. There are thee total in existence (MGS and GT2 are the others). These were sold at retailers like Funcoland and Electronics Boutique making them somewhat “official”. They even offered slight visual enhancements over playing on a PS1. In the past year or so Tekken was also introduced into Bandai Namco’s physical crossover TCG Union Arena. The cards look awesome.
I actually own that Tekken 2 era Heihachi plushie. I got him when I was a kid, and I remember I always wanted Kazuya but never was able to obtain him. I do have the Epoch Tekken Tag 1 Lei, Jun, and Kazuya figures, which are pretty hard to come by nowadays and usually cost quite a bit when they do pop up (especially Kazuya).
I have Storm Collectible Kazuya, King and Paul, Figure Arts Tekken 8 Jin (soon I will get Kazuya too), Tekken 7 statue with Kazuya and Heihachi and in a tournament I won a Kotobukiya Christie statue. In my country, Hungary, these are kinda luxury things.
Last year Bryan's trailer for Tekken 8 got leaked and Harada told everyone that the one who makes the most noise gets a cool Bryan shirt with Harada's signature and I think that shirt is the rarest official merch 😅
I have a Tekken Tag Kazuya Ultimate 12 Inch Figure made by Epoch and Cworks. Kinda looks like a Ken doll but works like a Max Steele figure articulation wise. They gave him his outfit from the opening video which is not usable in the game hahaha
have been collecting tekken stuff the past few years. for tekken 1, there is also a longcase version as well. the black label standard case came out later and is why it is expensive. the greatest hits is the cheapest way to go. (jp versions are/were roughly the same for t1/t2/t3 on ps1.. make sure it has the spine card) bootlegs aside there's a bunch of games with tekken crossovers, like anna kournikova smash court tennis EU exclusive, urban reign, pacman fever, namco x capcom etc.. also jp exclusives like the wonderswan tekken card challenge. i found that alot of the different cover variants for the tekken comics by titan, were really difficult to find. tekken 6 also had alot of random pre-order stuff, some of those metal cards were only sold in one store making it hard to find (the nina one), there were also i think 2 variants of pauls arm sleeve tattoos, with/without color. the second live action tekken movie actually has 2 variants. the 2014 version comes with a lenticular slipcover. the 2016 re-release is just a regular copy. Tekken tag 2 i think has the most variants, some extremely rare. examples, card edition, prestige edition (asia exc. VERY RARE), we are tekken Uk ver., ironfist uk version (which may include the we are tekken version?), ANZ edition.. read somewhere there was a USA limited edition version, have yet to see one though. also just recently, the tekken 8 collectors editions were all different depending on region. USA and the UK were pretty much the same i think except the UK statue does not light up. the JP version comes with alot more stuff including Azucena's brand coffee cups, a Mishima style hand fan and some pins and acrylic stands etc.
