Featured Ebay Auction – Street Fighter II Ryu From Bandai

under Featured Ebay Toy Auctions

I was looking for something a bit different for today’s Featured Ebay Auction. I decided to browse through some various Action Figure listings. I settled on the Street Fighter Listings page and happened upon something I never knew existed.

Courtesy of seller jiznoint, I couldn’t help but share this auction. It for a 1993 Street Fighter II Ryu By Bandai.

    Holy crap I have this figure! 2 actually, got them in 95. 1 broke(be careful with the hips and thigh swivel). For it's time it had EXCELLENT articulation, basically unseen at that point in the American action figure market. It would be years before anyone came close.

    The only bad things, are the aforementioned leg joints, the fact that the handguards fitted loosely and the joints could get very, very loose over time, especially the legs. The only other figure I saw using this body was Super Saiyan Son Goku.

    That's awesome that you have one. I saw it and was immediately surprised by the back of box pics at how posable the figure was. For early 90's articulation, it looked pretty good.

    Thanks man. Yeah back then, when I 1st saw it, I was shocked at how articulated it was. Up until then, the only things close from what I experienced were the 8" Power Rangers and the 5" super poseable(what was then deemed super poseable at the time) Spiderman from the Toy Biz Spiderman cartoon line.

    The seller's called "jiznoit"? Seems appropriate as I stained my pants looking at that. I particularly dig the figures' poses on the package, mimicking the game sprites. Man, they did a great job!
