Storm Collectibles Street Fighter Zangief Photo Review

Posted on November 11, 2017 at 10:52 am by Tony_Bacala under Random Photo Shoot, Video Game Toy News

Today we are catching up with Storm Collectibles Street Fighter figures with a look at the recently released Zangief! He’s the latest State-side release so far.  Towering over all the other Street Fighter 5 figures, he comes in at 8.5 inches.  Storm’s fighter figures are bulky by default and Zangief keeps that going at the taller height.  He is a big dense brick of plastic, and that’s a good thing.  He feels great in hand.  Articulation is still there though, and sculpting, especially on the face, is on point.  We’ve done up over 45 HD images so read on to check him out!

ICYMI – Check out our previous Storm Collectibles galleries here!

Overall Thoughts:

Really fun release.  Having a heavy dense chunk of plastic is rare these days, but Storm keeps their style going even at this bigger size.  Almost all in-game moves can be recreated, the only restriction is in the legs.  Most Storm figures have range issues in the lower half.  Not a deal breaker, but the sculpts get in the way for really dynamic poses.   The shoulders were a little tight, and can pop out during posing.  Nothing broke though and everything can pop back on so that’s all you can ask for.  The face sculpt on all 3 are fantastic, and paint applications are sharp.  The chest hair is actually a separate piece that moves around with poses as needed.   The shorts are actually hollow, a thinner rubber piece that bends as needed with the leg movements.  Bottom line he’s a beast of a figure and super fun to smash your other fighters with.  If you are into the Street Fighter franchise, he’s definitely worth a pick up!

    Awesome figures. I picked up Hot Ryu a week ago after passing him up. I was hoping to get the NYCC black pants version but I caved. I see he's up on BBTS now so I might still get him. I can't wait Until Chun-li and Akuma hit stores. I've been checking my comic shops every week. My only critique is that I wish they would improve the range of movement in the torso joint.
