A new magazine scan from the latest issue of Figure King gives us a small, but new look at the upcoming Street Fighter Akuma S.H. Figuarts. The Akuma figure debuted during San Diego Comic-Con 2017. The figure looks to include a Hadouken effects piece, interchangeable hands, and multiple head sculpts. Pre-orders for the figure are likely to open soon from Tamashii Nations.
Akuma is priced at 6,480 Yen (about $59 USD). Look for the figure to be released in January. We’ll update as more details are released. Click the thumbnail for the full scan.
Retail release in January 2018 priced at 6480¥. Looks like aside from extra hands and faces he'll include a Gohadoken effect piece.
cant wait
I'm hoping Ken is next.
Man, I'm already in the Storm Collectibles MK line and I've been on the fence between SC and Figuart Street Fighter figures, not really being sure as to which line I want cause I wanted to have them all in 1:12, but I really think the Figuarts Ryu looks better and this Akuma looks saw gaaawd...I might just take the plunge.

I'm kinda missing the 天 - Kanji on his back but there probably isn't a good way to include it - maybe those plastic prints they used to make speech bubbles and stuff could've worked, but that would look a bit wonky since you need a stand to keep it floating.
Anyways, great looking figure, don't know if I will buy it but seems to be the best Street Fighter SHF yet as far as sculpt goes.
Gimmie!!!
This looks pretty good. This look is technically a SF4 Akuma though. Although he has his classic costume in SFV he wears padded gloves and a black belt instead of the ropes. Also has his symbol on his prayer beads. I liked those subtle changes to the outfit. Reminiscent to how he appears in alpha.
I think he does look better than the rest of the SF figures released by Figuarts but I also think his head looks kinda big for the rest of his body......
o__O maybe I am too used to more stylized proportions.....
