What Jada is doing with the SF line is the stuff of legends. Excellent looking figures with great articulation and a nice amount of accesories. The fact that this Bison has a freaking cloth cape and the quality still feels sturdy is the icing on the cake. I hope Jada licenses other properties like Darkstalkers or even SNK characters. As long as the customers are there, this company could change the entire landspace. My only criticism is that they still can't get movie characters (Dracula & Frankenstein's monster) and female ones (Cammy) quite right.
I personally pray that Jada Toys is able to work something out with Nintendo and do Punch Out, there's nothing I'd want more than a line of 6-inch punch out figures
It looks better than I thought. The SDCC prototypes didn't impress me. This is scaled closer to his game stats. He doesn't tower above many people at 5 foot 11inches. I'm happy this fixes all the issues the SHF Bison had but at a lower price and more accurate sculpt.
@@scottroxford5715 I'm a bit disappointed in the Storm Collectibles Darkstalkers figures. I got the Dimitri despite it being bigger than 1/12 , because I oculd use the excuse he is a monster so he's bigger than the average human. I also go it with the hope Storm would make more characters. I do not like how the Morrigan turned out. I hope it looks better in action.
@@AlphaProto Yeah they fumbled with the Darkstalker license hard cause they started with Dimitri and I know he's like the Ryu of the series but who is the one in all the crossover games and the face of the franchise? And while I agree their Morrigan looks a little off, I still got it on pre order. I don't know why they're so scared of female figures.
I need Captain Commando. However honestly I would prefer if since they are (surprisingly quickly) getting to the end of Ultra SF2 cast, can they move onto SF Alpha/SF3 and give us characters that NEVER got a figure before? I have been aching to get a Guy, Karin, and Maki figure for years. Give me a Rolento also!
Great review. I love the movement you can get from this guy. Along with your wishes for crossed arms and a grinning face, I wish he were maybe SLIGHTLY larger in scale, but even that is just my mind convincing me that Bison is always enormous. I love the look of this guy, can’t wait to get him!
Pure love and respect for the original design on this great figure! I hope Jada make figures from other Capcom IPs like Captain Commando, Dark Stalkers and Final Fight!
Awesome review! This is without a doubt my favorite line going right now. That wired cape has no business on a $25 figure, but Jada really is spoiling us.
He looks great. In the Bison comparison, we've gotten nothing but amazing M. Bison figures, haven't we? I do wonder if the Jada one isn't a tad undersized though.
I’m hoping we get some Street Fighter Alpha series after they finish off their Street Fighter 2 figures because I think they’ve shown off a complete roster for their Street Fighter 2 line.
The cape really makes this figure shine! I think, when compared to the SHF versions, that M.Bison and Blanka are coming up a bit short. Those are challenging sculpts though so I don't blame them for sacrificing a bit of articulation to keep the price down.
I have been liking. Jada over SH figuarts. And I am replacing my sh by Jada. But.. For this m bison I think is a bit short so I will keep my sh figuarts for this one
if Jada could just come out with action packs. A beat up head, a happy head , a set of action hands, and an action effect for about 10 $15 . Would kill the game
Damn man I'm jealous because I still haven't received my Ken figure.😕 Great review man and huge congrats to Jada Toys for finally making awesome and affordable Street Fighter figures.
Since Jada's figures are in line size wise (to a point) with figuarts I'm picking and choosing to fill in my slots. Figuarts stupidly did not complete the Shadaloo kings, so I will get Balrog. Jada's Chun li I think is better than figuarts. I'd like to see how thicc they do R Mika >.>
thank you for the review, very well done. One question though, because I am a totally blind collector and couldn't see the size comparisons, how does he compare against the one made by sota toys? I have the sota toys version and that one is quite large. Is this version also that bulky?
@AlphaProto The SHF didn't technically miss anything. It's Bison's Nostalgia costume in SFV where he doesn't have some of those extra details. It's based on the SFII in-game sprites and early artwork.
Don't worry we are gonna get the Extra Faces in another release. U wanna know how I know this!!!. No 1. Jada has already done this with Chun Li, I believe and No 2, This line has been so popular that it's a No Brainer Not to give us extra stuff, hell I could tottaly see us getting proper Accessories Packs with all kinds of cool stuff.
Yeah u can see the great work they have done here but I still prefer the SHF version but then again the Jada has a cape and a Hat badge. I think I'm goona have a mix of Jada and SHF street fighters in my collection. Is that wrong of me?
I have some of the previous SH Street Fighter figures but i missed Bison, so this one looks like the perfect option. Once they finish with SF 2 I would love to see them make SF3 figures.
Jada is doing really really great with this line. This is what an action figure should be, affordable, actionable and playable. I hope they'll do the same for upcoming Mortal Kombat line and in the future, maybe Marvel or DC characters. I think Jada is doing better than Hasbro or McF.
I feel like this Bison is too short. The Sota Toys Bison has the better height and the smiling face, there are things I like about the Sota version better as far as esthetics. But overall, the Jada Toys Bison is a better action figure. Great review and can't wait to get my hands on this!
That looks bloody phenomenal. A bulky looking figure that poses superbly. Jada is making Hasbro look like cheapskate amateurs. This has better articulation, texture and shading, a wired soft cape extra head and hands and an effect piece.👍
Jada toys is destroying the competition at 25.99 they offering good articulation, good paint finish, pinless joints, several accessories and now cloth goods with bendy wire? Hasbro McFarlane need to learn from Jada toys and get their stuff together because if they can do it at 25.99 why can't the rest do it?
i hate how these toy migos guys are getting the figures obviously have a inside connection with the owner and it’s just whack these jada guys need to get better advertising and marketing and take over they could get any license remake any toy out with this kinda configuration and attention to detail and their off to the races no offense to the toy migos youtubers but come on i need to get my hands on these figures and so does the rest of the world
