With that level of articulation this company should make fighting characters their bread and butter. Imagine what these guys could do with things like tekken, mortal kombat, kengan, Baki, DBZ, hell they would kill it
Maaaaaan...I hope so. Storm is killing it with their figures, but their scale isn't really true 1/12 and they take forever to put them out. I would love to see Jada do Tekken, MK, SNK figures. But it seems like atm they are focused on Capcom franchises with Street Fighter and Mega Man. If they have freedom to do other Capcom franchises like Resident Evil, DMC, Dark Stalkers, Strider, Ghouls n Ghosts, etc. It would be f'n awesome to see.
Jada's main guy, Juhn, has stated in interviews there are other lines he'd like to do. They're just focused on making the SF and Mega Man lines a success first. I'd seriously love a Darkstalkers line, despite him saying their character designs would be a pretty big challenge to render in figure form. And I want all the Street Fighters from these guys, including 6. lol
@@AbelFrost Capcom has a ton of cool IPs they could make into figures. Darkstalkers, Rival Schools, Captain Commando, and Viewtiful Joe are the long-shots on my wish list from Jada. Resident Evil and DMC seem possible if not likely.
Ah yes - DBZ, Mortal Kombat, and Tekken figures from Jada Toys would be bloody brilliant to see!
@@drewhadou Too bad they don't know how to make sure everything gets released all at once. Either that, or they held back Chun-Li on purpose so they could make her an online exclusive. Which is what I think is gonna happen to one or two of the figures from wave 2 as well
I was really impressed with these fist two Jada Street Fighter figures. So much more value than your standard Marvel Legend. I can't wait to see where the line goes.
For me it was the Street Fighter Alpha series, I adored the colorful anime aesthetic, the new characters, and the fast combo-centric gameplay.
Jada toys absolutely killed it. They put Hasbro on notice for sure! Scooped these up as soon as i found them!
Third strike is my favorite version of character designs.
I'd buy multiples of a Third Strike, Alpha, and SF6 figure line. lol
Hell yeah!🤘
I'd buy a Q figure lol
With how much detail, articulation and accessories these figures have for their price, I really hope JADA gets around to doing Darkstalkers! Would love an affordable Morrigan Aensland, Hsien Ko, and Felicia!
Same
First, question of the day: SSF2 was my favorite arcade as a kid, so I feel deeply nostalgic about this version. As for this figure, it is a little more flawed than Fei-Long. Even then, it's impressive what Jada can offer for such price. Hasbro don't have any excuse for the crap they release.
My favorite is Street Fighter Alpha 3 in terms of gameplay and roster. The aesthetic of Alpha 2, including designs, artwork and music holds a very special place in my heart.
According to Juhn, Capcom insisted on red gloves and black hair, which tracks: the CGI mockup for the figure had brown hair and brown gloves
Rather odd they didn’t force that on Storm Collectibles though
I will give Jada Toys a chance regarding Street fighter, just as long as they keep at it. Apart from SOTA, many other companies have stopped producing SF figures at the beginning, making collectors have an incomplete set. Fingers crossed so they do the whole set from Super Street Fighter II. 🤞
Happy Father's Day to Anthony and all you fathers out there!
In SF2, you can't see the hadoken hands in both front and side, but from SF4 to SF6, you can see it from both especially when you use it as a finisher
The king is back
Edit: Finished the vids and yep, I need this thing even more now. Especially Fei Long. Anthony’s simple yet effect pics just show everything great about it, despite the lil flaws
Now that they're in dealings with Capcom, I would love some Ace Attorney figures! Or maybe Dragon's Dogma figures, knights or whatever they want to make. Of course, what I most would love to see them do is Castlevania....
The Alpha/Marvel vs Capcom versions are my favorite. The upcoming Bison looks more in line with that aesthetic, which I'm excited to get in hand.
I’m in love with the box art. I’m not even a street fighter fan but I want it because the packaging is cool 😂
For the price point I think I might have to pick this guy up..I hope they do the whole line of Street Fighter 2!
Yes indeed - I’ve been waiting for this review! Jada Toys’ Street Fighter line has exceeded my expectations! They bloody killed it with this release, too! Ryu is my favourite Street Fighter character, along with M.Bison, Ken and Akuma. Blimey! I sure hope it is not long before we see Jada Toys release figures of those characters.
Mister Anthony, I still recall your Play Arts Kai Ryu figure review video from many years ago. It was the very first video of yours I saw; I ended up subscribing to your channel AND buying the Ryu figure. (I also bought, collected, displayed the Play Arts Kai Arkham series figures, courtesy of your brilliant reviews).
Thank you for sharing,
Arrivederci,
Giovanni Marino, M.D.
Ah. The good ol' days of Square Enix figures. Shame that line went the way it did. Thanks for the continued support.
👍🤘🙏
Just got these yesterday. My only complaint is Ryu’s diaphragm is limited for no reason. But that’s a very little complaint. For the price point and in comparison to other figures at this price point these are amazing so far!
Yeah, that torso is definitely function over aesthetic. Shame about the skin tone, but I'm pretty sure they'll release like 100 of Ryu variant later lol. Still worth the price👍👍
Favorite SF is Third Strike. I'm liking 6 a lot, but not sure about it being my favorite yet.
I do have a few minor issues with Ryu and FEI Long but I'm very happy with this figures and I won't hold it against them.
For a company this new to action figures, this is an impressive start.
For being this new and for the price, they're totally worth it. The unique sculpting between figures, the paint, the accessories and the incredible articulation, this is an exciting line that people should support.
Companies much larger than Jada are going to need to step up their game.
Hey Anthony. Mine does have some QC issue. My default Ryu's head had his right eye painted a bit off side from the place.
Oh yea and i also has the same bandana problem like yours. Well, it's not very noticeable when I display it. But, kinda a bit bummer.
Love ur review Anthony!
Glad you're back and hope you're feeling better
Just love to see how this turned out. Hope Akuma doesn't take too long. I'm not even a Street Fighter fan but Akuma was a fun character in Tekken 7 so here's hoping Jada makes a good one that'll surpass even this release.
Evil Ryu is a convention exclusive. And Chun-Li is an online exclusive. And I'm calling it right now, Dhalsim is gonna be the online exclusive possibly
Appreciate the honesty. Very bad QC on the paint on mine. Goofy eyes and the paint on the heads doesn't match the rest of the flesh colour. Got these because of the almost universal praise from reviewers, but I'm a little disappointed.
SSF2: The New Challengers is always going to have a soft spot in my heart, so I'm 100% all in for this line. Sad that BBTS hasn't PoL'ed mine yet though! 😢 Glad you're feeling better, and solid review as always, thanks! 😎👍
This figure is so good. I just got him. I might like him more aesthetically than the figuarts one. Idk, but im satisfied woth my purchase. Just looks like the Roo I've grown up with and mained over the years.3rd strike is by far my fav design wise.
My bandana is also short on one side the same way.
I have that overly orange Sagat from SH Figuarts and this Ryu scales nice with it.
I for one am glad that these two DON'T have the same torsos as Fei Long has always been portrayed as having a slimmer body. Ryu is usually bulkier but at least the Gi covers his abs
I agree with you 100% 👍🏻
What are your thoughts on the past SH Figuarts Street Fighter line? I know you mentioned Storm Collectibles and Sota Toys.
It ended too soon too be considered. I've reviewed all of them though
I bought this figure mainly because I don’t have a 6 inch Ryu, I personally don’t like the face sculpt but I can appreciate the figure. The plastic feels a little soft to me, it doesn’t feel as durable as Hasbro figures, but I dig the accessories and articulation! The Fei Long figure was definitely my favorite from these releases so much fun to pose
Street fighter 2 turbo will always be my number one and not a lot of people will admit this but Street fighter 3 is my second-favorite
My favorite Street Fighter game is hard to pick; it comes between 3rd Strike and Ultra IV, I think.
When I finally get SF6, that might be up there too, just based on the time I had with the beta.
Been really anticipating your review with all the praise this line is getting and a lot of the engineering seemed to do what you've always harped on.
My favorite is 3rd Strike. I really want an Oro figure and the animation of that game is top notch. Im hoping their going to do alternative colors, Ryu with the yellow headband, navy gi is what I always used in 3S.
3 definitely has top tier sprites
Street Fighter 1!!! Where the battle to get any special move out was a great achievement in and of itself.
Probably Alpha 2 was my favorite. Endless hours after school playing that game to death! ..of all Capcom, I'm Dying for more, or anything Darkstalkers/Vampire Savior(I had the imports).
Favorite Street Fighter game based on aesthetic? Easily, Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike.
Am I the only one hope that Jada does more SF game lines? By that I mean like more games in the same universe ie Final Fight, Rival Schools, and other things like that.
I'm not a huge street fighter fan, but I did order Ryu and Chun Li. I'm pretty impressed with what they offer for the $25 price point, hopefully they keep up this quality. It makes me really excited for their Mega Man line.
Was waiting for your review on this one, looks really good, a little worried about quality control issues, as I haven't seen them where I live, so will probably have to buy them online and yeah I''ve seen terrible eye paints on these. Btw do you personally like it more than Sh figurarts one (without considering price) ?
also my fav versions art styles, character design and animation wise is SF3.....would have loved to see more SF2 classic characters on that game
Beautiful job in this line and really cool review. I felt the same about the heads
Jada did a great job with these! I hope they make more Capcom characters as well
Wow, I thought for a second the gi's jacket was cloth with how easily it was removed. That is nice. This is a killer for $25. I'd love it if they did MK, but I suspect they won't go there soon or at all.
I hope to god that Jada hangs onto this license and does as much as SOTA did.
I cannot wait for a Guile and Akuma eventually.
So much potential.
I knew that you would like this very articulated Ryu action figure because from my own personal opinion, This Ryu figure is so the very definitely best of the character in years because looks so...... cool in poses and I don't collect Street Fighter figures but him and Chun Lee from Jada Toys will go great together, Awesome review
Yup mine came in a fewdays ago and was gonna keep it in package untill i saw 3 different black scuff marks on his nose and cheeks so i had to take it out and clean it off
I’m getting this very soon, big Street Fighter fan and I’m so hyped. Plus the box is sick
They put dirt on SHF and Mafex for 25dollar figure with that kind of articulation. Hahaha
Ryu was so Cool that Darwin Spared Him
They probably didn't send you a review copy because your the most critical reviewer of action figures on youtube. The figure is a 10 out of 10 considering the price point.
I want this line to succeed by how amazing the price to content ratio is, giving us almost figuarts style figures at amazing prices is crazy with the stuff that is on shelves currently.
However I really want them to just get the classic 12 (and Akuma) out the way because what I want with a SF line is to get figures of characters never/rarely done before.
Give me Karin, Guy, Yun and Yang ... heck Maki from CVS2/Alpha 3 upper upper would make me very happy. A car bonus stage accessory pack would be hilarious too!
I really want Jada to commit to this. SF is a franchise I dearly love and have been wanting to get a great selection for years that can match together, these I feel I can fill gaps in my Figuart collection with.
Jada toys should make tekken figures.
Been waiting for your opinion on this since I asked about Jada during your 3POA appearance. I'm happy to see they didn't disappoint!
Right now the main two out are Fei-Long and Ryu, Chun-Li was pushed back but should be coming out before the next true wave.
Yeah. I believe she's still part of wave 1 though. Just delayed.
@@AnthonysCustoms She is, Jada usually has 3 figs per wave. Their Mega Man figs are following the same format (One Mega Man and two Robot Masters)
@@AnthonysCustoms She's an online exclusive
What's the diff? The Jada Chun-li that I ordered was the same price as Ryu and Fei Long.@@MADMONEYMAN5000
My favorite SF games are:
1. SF6 due to the fact that both Ryu and Ken are viable options for the first time in a long time.
2. SF III Third Strike
3. Alpha 3 Upper
4. Ultra SFII
5. Super 4 AE
6. SF Alpha 2
7. SF Alpha
8. SFV (yes even after everything done to SFV it’s still my least favorite SF game)
Also I mainly play Ryu in every game.
Glad you're feeling better!
i got a few characters with SHF, but i im looking forward to get some cheaper side characters,
feilong, ken, cammy, etc
Not sure if you have the Crimson Hawk ranger figure anymore from the lighting collection, but I've been curious if the head from this will fit on that figure.
I do have it. I'll have to see if they swap
I've had two Ryus break so far. One the foot broke off and the other the whole leg broke off. So far Fei Long is fine. Getting Chun-li in today so hopefully she'll be fine too.
I’m having fun with the two guys from this line. Not a fan of the faces but it’s okay. They are really fun to put in fight poses and do great high kicks.
Sweet review! Oh yeah, toe hinge would have been nice for these.
Im supporting this line. Excellent start with a promising future
Anthony I have a question for you what do you record your reviews on?
I got this earlier in the week and it exceed my expectations. Jada toys is newer to action figures but they're already doing a good job. I'll probably be all in on these
Been waiting for this. I knew you were going to give it a 9. I didn't even want fei long but i picked him up anyway and i agree he is better. I hope they complete this line.
Great review bro, as always! Loving this Jada Toys line. Longtime subscriber and I hope all is well with you and your fam. 👊🏼😎
Thanks. And thanks for the continued support.
OH HELL YEAH. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REVIEW!!!
Do you think the waist joint is compatible with an sh figurarts torso on these figures? I've been wanting to make a female sayian custom and I'm thinking of using jada toys chun li legs on a jeice or zarbon torso.
Not likely without serious customizing
I’d love if Jada Toys made a mortal Kombat line like Storm using classic designs but at a low price point and a wide selection of characters. We all love the ninjas but making only ninjas for years before branching out and making Baraka and Raiden was a mistake if you ask me.
My ideal line would be waves of 4 with this articulation and quality. Maybe first wave us Scorpion, Sub Zero, Raiden, and Liu Kang. The second wave Johnny Cage, Baraka, Reptile, and Noob Saibot. The third Sonya Blade, Jax, Kung Lao, and Shang Tsung and so on. I really hope Jada Toys gets the rights to make a MK line but I doubt it
Your consistency of uploading videos every single day for years is insane, man. Thanks for this vid. Have you seen Storm Collectibles SFV Ryu? Which do you prefer compared to this one? Also, my fave for character design is SF6 Ryu with the classic costume, which looks like this figure.
I've reviewed every Storm Ryu. Not really comparable to this figure though. Thanks for watching.
@@AnthonysCustomsSorry I never saw this before. Thanks for responding. Happy holidays!
it has more accessories and better articulation than most legends 😂
I think "all Marvel Legends" works if you're only counting standard releases.
Appreciate the in depth review. Your review of this figure was the one I was anticipating most. But I will say that the butterfly joints definitely get more range than what u showed.Maybe u just need to break it in a bit more. And I totally agree that Fei Long is the better of the two releases.
i love Alpha 2. love the design for every fighter.
With this figure of Ryu and with Fei Long, you can recreate the fight scene from Street Fighter 2 animated movie 🎥
Indeed. Love that movie
@@AnthonysCustoms Me too. Although I think it could have been more great if Chun-Li was never too injured to then go to the fight with Ryu and Guile against Bison.
Alpha will always be my favorite. Maybe the Street Fighter v Marvel Super Heroes. Can't wait to pick this one up.
finally.. a time worthy review!
The skin tone is the only real issue I have with it too. JADA will improve, I have no doubt. Their new Chester Cheetah toy makes their cereal mascots toys from last year look junky! So much improvement in under a year!
Favorite Street Fighter is SFA3. I like the anime / comic artwork, good roster of fighters, and solid gameplay. For $25 these are amazing!!!
1:38 why actually yes. 3rd strike has the best character designs. I love how honestly handsome they made Ryu and Ken in the artwork they did them Justice. Also Dudley is just my favorite character. The best gentlemen boxer.
I think i agree about 3 being the best look... Other than maybe vs snk
@@AnthonysCustoms SNK is great also, and I reallly do like the Alpha series designs as well because in MVC2 they draw every character in the “Alpha” style for the sprites and artwork.
I didn’t know the blast effect was called a hodoken..learn somethin new from you all the time! I’m not a fan of the orange skin but aside from that the figure seems great. Nice review Anthony 💯💯💯♥️♥️♥️💖💖💖
Happy to help!
I was waiting for this one. I think the 9 is on point. Will Fei long get a 10? Great review as always, Anthony.
I just wonder how I’m gonna get him in Canada.
Had been waiting for ur review on these SF figures. These figs from Jada are awesome. I agree the torso for Ryu looks a little unnatural but still Jada have done a great job at showing how good normal figures can be if some care is put into it
Indeed
i’ve never played a single SF game.
i was given a copy of SSFIV for my birthday.
however, mom intentionally got it for 360 (i had ps3).
so, i had no choice but to forfeit ownership to my bro, who had the 360
QC def has some problems. Ryu's butterfly was stuck with glue and Fei Long's diaphragm is stuck and pops back into position like a spring-loaded action feature. Heat isn't helping. Luckily, Jada customer service is sending me replacements.
Great to see another company in the 20-25 dol figure game, and doing such a good product.
Hope Hasbro is watching, they need to up their game pr they'll start losing more and more people
Only good line Hasbro has right now is GI Joe, and that's because they can put more budget into it.
@@Spongemonkey26 their Fortnite line is really good, I have some of them
Mine is Ultra Street Fighter 2 and Street Fighter 4 cause I like the anime look they have. Street Fighter 5 Ryu looks awesome.
I'm looking forward to getting my hands on one of these figures.
The fact that JADA did not stick to the Ultra Street Fighter II design does concern me. Not sticking to the proper design will make it odd if they want to go and make a Street Fighter Alpha Ryu, or Street Fighter 3 Ryu. Each series had their own distinct design that would make good figures down the line. Mixing details will leave hardcore fans a little unsatisfied. There is promotional Street fighter II art where his gloves are red, so I will let it pass.
wish you could open the fireball as there's a black spot inside mine
Is the material for the plastic closer to Hasbro or Bandai’s SHF line?
Both brands use the same plastics so... Its mostly pvc with some pom, nylon, and abs.
@@AnthonysCustoms I’ve only bought a few of Marvel Legends and they tend to feel slightly more rubbery to me than I’d like both in the joints or even torso pieces.
Acabei de comprar. Está in stock nesse momento no bbts
SOTA Toys is the GOAT
I hope they take up Tekken next
I know what I want for my birthday next month
Third strike is definitely my favorite!
Street Fighter 4 hands down (Adon) main
this figure could be a good base for a custom Jin from Tekken and Fei Long could be a Forest/Marshall Law
I would love if these guys made a mortal kombat line. I don’t want to break bank just for some classic looking figures.
My favorite looks for ryu is sf 3rd strike or alpha , I'm agree with FEI long be best of both, I hope they make vega and cammy My two favorite characters of sf 2
I can't wait to get this, I'm looking forward the their Mega Man figures as well, hopefully we'll get some Mega Man X figures as well.
Ryu is so great that Darwin didn't get near him :D
Also out of all the games, I prefer how they look in SF4 the most followed by Alpha 3.
