Yeah what boggles my mind is there are so many slam dunk designs—especially sixth rangers—in PR/SS in general, that Hasbro could be killing it just by making decent figures of them. I kind of hope that the slow trickle now means in the background they’re busy readying full teams for bigger drops or even the start of BaF waves for LC… but I’m sadly leaning more toward them just “toe dipping” still and not being willing to commit fully to articulated collector focused PR figures…

I most certainly do not want Build-a-Figures added to the LC line, since that'd just be taking away even more budget from what little this line already gets.

I just dislike the way BAFs are packed into the boxes and just make the box look weird. To outsiders, it looks like you got a broken figure!

they don't need a BAF in Lightning Collection it dose not make sense right.

Ryu is unexpected, but cool! But man, these figures really aren't worth the price Hasbro's asking for lately.

I still want a (good) Chun-Li though.

The price does sting, but he at least has a real nice array of effect parts to make up for it. Definitely feels more worth it than Shredder. Does surprise me he doesn't have an unhelmeted alternate face though, but perhaps that would have cost more Capcom tax...

Looks like they used the upper half of the Dino Charge Pink body and the bottom half of the standard male body. It's not optimal, but it works.

Is DC Pink's body new? I vaguely remember realising this at the time but I forgot the changes

It is. Slightly better proportions and better articulation. Primarily in the arms.
