- I have a new design for Lei Wulong. Here's to hoping that he gets a return in Tekken 8. Let me know what you think.
Shoutout to @amalfi5000 for the design idea.

I want Lei back so bad, man
Its actually criminal that he's not in 8 and more people should be pissed about this.
I agree. I don't know how he was left off the base roster twice.
agree bro..
I agree. Still a bit upset and disappointed they didn’t bring him back. The ponytail look is the best imo 👍
I don't understand why they keep leaving him off the base roster.
The Supercop must return.
Agreed.
Tekken is not the same without lei man
No, it's not.
I was skeptical till the moment you drew in that ponytail. I didnt realize how much i associated Lei Wulong with that ponytail coplike look and how much i missed it. That black turtleneck with that pose really gives him that athletic and martial artist look. Almost like a kevlar yet not!
Very nice!
Great work! :)
Thanks. Like I said, that ponytail is one of the biggest issues I have with the T7 look.
Loving your lei Costume my g
Thanks
Without lei there is no tekken for me. Im a lei user and he is the only character i play so..yeah.
And this is the argument why you don't take legacy characters out of fighting games. At least make a story replacement like Eddy/Christie or Baek/Hwoarang so players can kind of still have them.
Same, not getting 8 until he’s in.
I think his design for 8 should focus more on him younger and on the drunken style/kung fu rather than just cop like on Tekken 4, 5 and 6
Yes! Bring out the Chinese robes outfit.
This is dope man! Really like the blend of the old and new you incorporated into his design. Man I would LOVE for you to make a redesign of Fahkumram. They went safe in T7 with a traditional Muay Thai look but I would love for them to really spice his look up in 8. Would love to see how you would go about it.
Thanks. Fahkuram would be challenging and I've gotten that request before. May have to do that soon.
we are waiting lei heis my main gun
After the latest reveal, anything is possible in Tekken 8.
Lei is completely dead. There is no way they're bringing him back when literally no one plays him. It's harder for them to justify bringing a character like him back because, really, how expensive it is to do that now vs how much they're expecting to get out of it.
I agree and it's a shame. I feel like Bandai Namco did him no favors in T7 and he may never come back. I hope I'm wrong.
Panda, Kuma and Shaheen had less players than Lei in Tekken 7. Zafina also had fewer players most of the time, until the last patch made her overpowered. Yet they all are base roster in T8. Even then, Lei basically compared to most low usage characters, all of them separated by very small drops.
So, no, usage is not the same as popularity, is not the same as quality, is not the same as sales, and is not the way Bamco selects the characters to put in the game.
"No one plays him", nigga, he's more played than Raven, Zafina, Bears, Shaheen.
The hell are you talking about
F.Y.M.
I don't know y'all keep saying that. People love and play Armor King but he's not in.
They need to bring back the OG look for him also… your design is dope too
Thanks
We need our Jackie Chan(Lei) in the game!
Yes we do.
Lei's design for Tekken 7 is already perfect IMO.
the way he wears _sukajan_ jacket combined with EOD tactical jumpsuit pretty much reflected his characteristic as a lazy detective who's dynamically meddling with others' affairs.
as a detective he's supposed to investigate things. hence the Cantonese style shirt layered with a piece of sukajan jacket. and if only he wear a pair of denim pants along with that, he'd be mingling more easily. no one would've suspected him as a cop.
i mean, look at his Tekken 4's alt costume. now that is how a HongKong detective usually looks like (minus the glove and the pony tail).
but this dude wears a tactical jumpsuit instead, like he was going to uncover the culprit and apprehend them too, even if he had to dispose a set of explosive booby traps along the way.
like blud thinks he's a Jackie Chan with more combat preparation, shorter life span, and a couple months of missed mortgage payments.
So I agree that Tekken 7 Lei changes were too much and that he had almost nothing left to tie him to his previous iterations. However I actually like when storylines advance and age characters forward to show that things do change. With your opener I was a little skeptical but the end result of you graying his hair a bit but retaining the classic ponytail, aging his face a little but giving him an updated police work wear almost like he’s been promoted enough he has to do desk work more often now. I like this direction a lot! Nice work!
Thanks. The "Him being promoted to desk work", part almost made me spit take.
Fly as fuck in his jordan 13s!
Ma boy lei I'm still loyal to him till the end and wish he return to tekken 8 thx for your effort homie peace.
They don't bring back Lei I'm gonna have to say goodbye to Tekken
I need to get around to the first Tekken Tag Tournament game...
I never got to play it years ago. I first played Tekken 2, and fell in love with Lei Wulong in that game. I had no idea that was his first game.
Tekken Tag 1 still may be in my top 3 Tekken games ever. A perfect blend of 2 and 3 IMO. Lei was definitely awesome in those early games to me.
I would love to see this cop attire in three additional color schemes:
Tekken 3, Tag 1 and Tekken 5.
Looking at this makes me even angrier at his T7 character designer. In what sense it was approved is beyond me.
I don't get it either.
I think they should have a robocop outfit for Lei. I’d love to see you do that like a slim metal suit helmet and all and maybe his sukajan sports jacket with a dragon on the back as an accent that would be cool you can still find a way to incorporate the weapons. Maybe thigh straps instead of holsters? Idk you’re creative.
A cop outfit similar to Lee's new costume or something more futuristic
Just wonder how they’ll bring Lei Wulong back into the mix? It would be nice to see how he’s fixed after 7. And with Jun Kazama back, he must have some friendship with her almost like in The Motion Picture.
Sad nobody remembers “Jackie Chan” anymore….
If we got references to the Tekken anime it would be amazing!
This deserves waaaaaaaay more views
Thanks
i like tekken seven lei. hes wearing a one piece with the top part tied around his waist, so he could wear his sick (but really gawdy) jacket over it. it looks like a police issued uniform that he complied with to some extent, but put his own twist on it. i think it shows character.
I can see that. I think personally I'm a slave to nostalgia and just love the old-school Lei look. Maybe if he didn't look as old it wouldn't bother me as much.
@@shadosassins im not an og, but it does seem like they changed him more than the rest of the cast.
I refuse to play until he returns
I can respect the loyalty. 😆 I can't believe he isn't in T8.
Agree on Tekken 7 100%. Now focusing on the design, kinda reminds me of Robert Garcia's from Art of Fighting thanks to color palate, however the overall design graying hair, simple outfit based on Jackie Chan, the shoes and police gear is great this is what he should have looked like in T7 you can add the broken nose band aid and it still works. Heck Law and Paul have been consistent only now Paul's hair is down, but when you see him in his OG costume that's the best Paul rendition I've seen. Law on the other hand adding a mustache or a beard works well as well with or without the Bruce Lee look is too iconic to change, though they made Law a complete joke in Tekken 7, but at least his ending is kinda serious till the end where he had a heart attack because of the bill from the UN lol.
Very nice design, I wasn’t a fan of 7’s design I liked the hairstyle but making his hair gray was a negative
Thanks. His age and hair was weird in 7.
Yeah Lei Wulong has always been one of my favourite Tekken characters. The police outfit and the traditional robes were both of great costume designs.
Having him as DLC in Tekken 7 was annoying, he should be a base character in my opinion but also I hated that design in Tekken 7 so I changed it with customising options.
One of the things I really don't like about the costume from Tekken 7 is the band-aids, it seems tacky and unlike Lei to be clumsy enough to need band-aids on his face, for the band-aids and the drastic change from the detective and traditional outfits I hated the Tekken 7 design of Lei Wulong
Nanco is not good enough but your idea si
Good enough dlc lei where have eomes
I'd love to see my old main, in T8 bro. He's not completely dead so he could come back 😂... I want him super cool, less goofy than T7, but damn he has to be in T8, I need Lei on heat with crazy 50/50, ground state attack heat engagers 🤯
If Heihachi is back, the least Harada could do is bring back Lei. Lei with Heat sounds like a nightmare though. 🤣
They added him in Tekken 7 and no one used him. He’s also difficult to use compared to the rest. So it’s not surprising he was left out of Tekken 8.
Tekken 8 launched with the most base roster characters.
I think his look may have played into why he wasn't used as much as his difficulty was, too.
Nice…
But I’d lose the ponytail.
Look at how Jackie Chan aged. Anything close to that?
But definitely we need Lei back!
I personally liked the ponytail look. Practically no time has passed between T6 and T8 so I kept it.
His best design is just his second costume from Tekken 7, that blue Chinese robes getup. Why don’t they ever just go with that??
I have no idea.
Very cool!
Thanks
I for the life of me don't know why they chose that design for Lei. I always liked using him as a kid because i thought he had a cool design. If i was new to Tekken and 7 was my first time seeing him, i wouldn't have picked him. He has a chracter specific tactical outfit in 7? Why wasn't that his default? He looks so cool!
Tekken 7 had some weird design choice for the defaults for some reason.
Lei is Jackie chan
he supposed to look like jackie chan
Lol i didn’t buy tekken 8 because there is no Lei. Ill wait when he comes back, if not, no t8 for meee 😂
Respect, for speaking with your wallet.
