He looks really great, unfortunately hes going to the backburner for me. Too many other characters they are releasing and these arent cheap. Plus my SOTA version of him will do. When they do characters that havent been made yet like when Juri releases, I will be chomping at the bit to get her.
Wonder how a ML Kingpin head would look on that?
Yeah, great job from Storm on this one.

They are honestly the hardest effing figure company to collect for. Their stuff is so good, they hit me in the fighting game feels, they are creating grail figures Ive wanted for YEARS, and I have to pretty much sell most of my collection of things to get them. Granted Ive collected a crap ton of stuff over the years so Im basically just using it to purge and me less cluttery but Its a price to pay to keep up with them. Then you also run the risk of a figure selling out within 6 months of its release and you have to pay skyrocket triple the price from when it first came out. So a figure you just had a hard enough time fathoming paying for is now unobtainable unless you shell out triple that cost. But seriously they are my most favorable part of my collection. They are worth the msrp price of them... i never buy after if they sell out because its just not worth it.

Well each one has slight differences to their SF2 counterparts. The most drastic changed character was Akuma but they did his nostalgia which was essentially his sf2/alpha iteration just modernized and more detailed. Bison also has a nostalgia costume. Hes trimmer, no cape, shorter skirt, brown hair, etc etc. Fun fact tho, each iteration of bison is actually a different host of his consciousness which is why hes massive in the street fighter alpha series and slimmer in sf2. Alpha in the SF timeline is the precursor or beginning of the street fighter timeline. Anyways. Chuns only change is her legs are larger in V because shes been getting the gainz.

So its a very weird choice that they are doing the Nostalgia costume version of SFV Honda. Its very strange since they have both USF2 and SFV licenses. I wouldve figured they do more traditional looks for the SF2 license and then the new updated looks for SFV. Akuma made sense since hes drastically different and imo ugly looking. Its also weird that they pick and choose costumes versions and regular versions. We still havent got a regular cammy from sf2 or sfv even tho we got her battle costume.

Hawk, Fei Long and a Classic SFII Turbo Cammy, bring on all the fighters Storm!!!
SFV Bison isnt much different from SF2 version. Just like how this one isnt much different than his SF2 iteration.
Thats a big boy
