SFV Ken is more different now.

As for the SF Figuarts, I'm excited to see them. Maybe they might let my boy Q get one.

So... Soul Calibur when?

That's the question. Sadly Soul Calibur isn't really relevant these days, but I heard that a new game is teased or something?

Anyways, since Harada has worked with Capcom, maybe Tamashii can somehow get the Tekken license and make Tekken 7 figures? That way they already have a deal with Namco once a new SC game comes around.

It’s a shitty theory but I would love to see it happen.

Where do you see SFV? I only see Ryu and Chun Li from SFII.

I'll definitely pick up Ryu for the Smash Bros shelf, but I could be swayed by a couple of others too.

The background used is a stage from SFV, SFV is the most recent game, and the headsculpts are clearly Ryu & Chun-Li from Street Fighter V.

And then there are little things like Ryu's gi, the SFV version is much more worn out and torn than the one he wears in SFII. Plus the figure has red gloves with the writing on them, just like in SFV, but Ryu had brown ones without symbols in SFII.

Does anyone really care about Soul Calibur?
Besides, if they do make figures of them, they'll probably be based of their SCV designs.

Seeing as Bandai and Namco are... well, Namco-Bandai, I can't see there being TOO much difficulty in getting a deal going. And yeah a new game was teased, but it's been months since then and nothing but silence since.

Wasn't SCII the best-selling of the entire franchise? It'd make a bit more sense to base it on appearances from that one. Plus, you know, it didn't scrap about 80% of the damn cast for newcomers nobody liked.

Figuarts Chun Li?....................

You know, I'm not even going to act like I made a mistake, I absolutely forgot about this

Guess it really is the demand that is not that great. But I mean come on, who wouldn't buy a good SCII Nightmare figure? That dude is just so badass.
