Fighting Game Toys
What have you bought recently?
Preorders?
Upcoming releases?

Thinking about grabbing Luke but not sure if I should wait for the Revo. Both of them have one face or another that feels wonky, and I think I like the effect parts more on the revoltech too.

Joytoy doing KOF which is nice since it seems like no one else is at the moment.

I wonder if the SHF Tekken 8 line will get to Yoshimitsu? Him and King are all I wanted out of it.

Unfortunately, I suspect we're not getting anymore Figuarts. Something tells me that the Tekken fanbase doesn't have as many toy collectors as Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat.

Tunshi is making 1/12 scale KOF line too, Some characters are in 1/6, but it seems like they are going 1/12 from now only.
Their figs are nice and really accurate to the source, but they are quite pricey and releases are painfully slow.

Is Storm Arena a joke to you?
Anonymous No.11606128 [Report]
In general SNK is giving their KOF licence like candy, to everyone. Personally would like to see Fatal Fury 3 and more Metal Slug with vehicle focus.

why doesnt tekken have many figures even though it's the biggest fighting game in video game history

eh i got the jin but was disappointed it was the Tekken 3 look. Reckon if they did some more familiar looks instead of the new costumes that basically look like alt colours they would sell better and have more incentive for more

Mainly just Jada stuff, SC are nice and I got Dan on preorder I'm simply just going complete on their SF2 line, but will probably grab Morrigan from Storm Arena, looking forward to getting Claw and Boxer soon

Not really a fighting game, but since this is the closest thing to a storm thread. Anyone else get Yujiro?

JoyToy Goro is pretty hefty considering the scale. The jacket look is my favorite so far.

I sanded the shoulders down and applied shock oil yesterday and she appears to work, though the fit is not as nice as an actual, well done factory fit.

I'm talking about the Storm Arena one, not the Storm Collectibles one, SA is their actual 1/12 scale line and not whatever scale SC is

SHF Chun li was really good. I bought her on release with ryu and r.mika. I think Ryu is the weakest of the figures and replaced him with the Storm Arena alpha ryu. Chun li still holds up though and i dont think any of the companies offering Chuns right now are making better figures. You should unbox her, shes fun to mess around with.
>>11606927
I've got him. He's fun as fuck but theres a paint qc issue on my left bicep. Doesn't bother me that much cause he's fun as shit to move around and pose. I hope the baki line goes on long enough to get Kasumi and Retsu.

Storm has got to find someone who can sculpt girl figures man these look like ass.

Nice. I've seen some people complain about them being too small, but the scale is perfect 1/12 to their official heights. They were never particularly large characters. It's crazy how the SC line took over 3 years just to get a 3rd fighter, whilst SA is at 3 in 6 months and 2 more announced.
>>11608628
Sucks about your Yujiro. At least they are cheap. Since I skipped SC Doppo i'm hoping he's coming next. The more the merrier.

Their Chun Li looks crap too so far. The male characters have cool and awesome physiques but she's just plain. The difference between Zangief here, and her is crazy.

honestly some of it is just their articulation cuts. leotards and spandex look like SHIT with all these cuts; its tough since they're fighting game characters who need to articulate but thinngs like those thigh cuts and the diaper are just extremely sculpt breaking.
they've definitely come a long way with the head sculpts at least, lilith's is actually pretty cute, more than I can say for any other females they've made

I'm on the fence about Jada's Akuma. I missed the boat for the Figuarts but I coped with it with the fact that it didn't have the symbol on his back. Now Jada does, and the price is a lot more manageable, so here we are

I think Gundamit is the most popular Chinese store, and there are other standalone stores and on temu/aliexpress, some specialize in some scale (like LTCave for 1/18...), soft goods, etc. They typically ship the stuff in a way that you don't pay additional customs fees (as a Euro anon).
You may also find local stores if that makes you feel safer, but they are a bit more expensive.

I order all current releases from Gundamit. Their shipping to EU is free, in some cases it even makes my order cheaper by a buck or two.

If something is sold out there, I just order it from random toy stores on Aliexpress. Their customer protection works really good and returns are free. If there are some obvious QC issues I can't fix myself, I just send the product back. Sadly, it just happened to me with Gru from Gong Studio/Popart. Got 2 same head sculpts. Factory defect not the sellers fault. No issue with returning whatsoever.

I got a Storm Motaro that did a pretty good job of disassembling itself. Came with a broken foot. Tried to change head and the whole neck peg came out. Then his rubber chest part wasn't anchored to anything so it kinda sloughed off like a loose tshirt. All around a nightmare. BBTS sent me a new one though and he was fine.

So its not Storm themselves who gives out replacement but BBTS? I'm worried that buying on Ali will have no after sales service. Specially if I'm going to buy an old storm figure.

Yeah, I only dealt with BBTS, not Storm directly. Out of 5 SC figures I bought, I only had any issues with that one, so it may just have been bad luck.

The Tunshi Terry looks amazing. Even the soft goods which IMO a lot of times looks badly tailored on 1/12 figures.
