Oopsy alert; this whole time I didn’t know the fireball had a phased set of blue hands within it, in the video game. My biggest “complaint” of the figure due to ignorance. Lol
Jada is kicking it with the Capcom releases!!! They sure put Hasbro to shame considering the price, accessories and articulation, and no reused parts (until Ken arrives). There's definitely a great value on these figures!!
Jada Toys casually showing how you can do Sculpting, Deco, Accessories, Licence, Pinless Joints,, creative packaging all under 24.99 while Hasbro team cries about half of it can't be done for the price
Yep, it's very awesome. Had this one for a few months already and still love to pose him along with Fei Long. Can't wait for the M Bison and Chun Li figures to release.
Totally super awesome figure! Very good value for money! Definitely one of the best figure of the year! Scales with ML figs quite good. Can't wait to complete my Marvel vs. Capcom collection with JADA toys and MLs.🤩🤩🤩
Crazy that in the fwoosh interview with Jada toys, they said that they plan to have the entire roster on the back of the box at least revealed as prototypes by SDCC next year.
That fireball is glued together really well. I took it apart but I don’t recommend it. Once you pull out those blue hands you can put his pegged hands into the front part of the effect.
The hands in the fire ball is an INSANE level of detail on jade toys part and shows the love they have for street fighter You see those hands aren’t attached to the fighter/ryu in the game (street fighter 2 and alpha at least) if you look closely you can see hands in the hadoken as it’s travelling across the screen
Ah yes!!! My favorite Street Fighter character. Ryu is imo the GOAT of fighting games. 🔥🔥🔥 Great figure. 8:08 Looking at the comparison, I think it scales well, because Ryu is generally 175 cm and Chun-Li is 169 cm.
i just got ryu today and it was worth the money, can’t wait to get more characters from the line along with the mega man stuff coming up hope they do other capcom properties like resident evil, they are killing it so far 🔥
Great review man... sucks the Fei longs torso didnt unstick, it did take me a while for mine to pop, had to hold it under the faucet as hot as it would go and eventually got it. But yeah I am loving this line and only own the Fei Long so far, I will be cherry picking for sure since Im not like an SF super fan. I have high anticipation for Blanka though!! Dhalsim, is a must get. I may force myself to pick between Guile or Bison. I will Get Vega for sure too once he is made.
I took advantage of the sale to get the Evil Ryu variant and I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of the figurine and accessories! Honestly, some of my Figmas don't do any better despite a price between 2 and 3 times higher (Evil Ryu cost me 36€ instead of the 45 asked for in my country) (I should point out that Ryu/Chun Li/Fei Long are at 30€ here). If I had the money I would be tempted to get the whole roster but I will probably have to limit myself to my favorites: Ken, Violent Ken (I think it will also be a deluxe/exclusive variant), "Claw" (aka Vega or Balrog depending on the region) and Akuma. For the others it will depend on the final product but Guile, Cammy and Blanka will surely join my shelf one day.
Awesome figure! Mines still sitting in my pile of loot lol, damn seeing that shf chun li makes me miss mines, I recently sold her so I can have the money to buy ryu, fei long, chun li and 2 other street fighter figs in future lol
At this point hasbro ML needs to do a reset (fire people). They are too expensive, little paint, subpar articulation, and for the most part, no accessories. There are too many companies like jada and neca, who seem to love making good figures at reasonable prices and we all know neca actually listens to the buyers to try and make things right if something is wrong., example april. They could have just given us a new head but they went back to the drawing board to make a new figure. When shart was talking to the hasbro team at sdcc and they said they put out over 100 figures a year and shart ask why don't you put out less but better figures, those "hasbro men" had a look on their faces like "why would we put any effort to make great products when we know people will buy subpar figures to complete teams" . That left a sour taste in my mouth. He also asked them what they were doing for the next haslab, to me, it seemed like they didn't want to talk about it because it might be another dud haslab creatio . They (hasbro) repaint and use all the same crap over and over again. Jada toys i can get behind. I'm not going to get everything, but I will be filling in holes from the SHFA line with these. The first Two figure from them, similar height and size, but different sculpt. Hasbro would have went out of their way to reuse the entire buck from one to make nearly everything in that size range into figures. can't wait for sagat, bison, vega, djay and a bunch more from this line.
Ryu (R-i-u) is more-or-less so over the Ryu (R-e-u). It's kind of an east/west coast thing depending on the pronunciation. Both work, just depends who ya' ask lol 😅
