Storm Collectibles has announced a partnership with North Stars Pictures to produce action figures based on Hokuto No Ken, aka Fist of the North Star! These will likely be in their 1/12 scale figure style, which has mostly been populated by actions figures from various fighting games. No additional details were available at this time. Look for more updates in the near future.
From Storm Collectibles:
“Storm Collectibles is proud to announce a new partnership with North Stars Pictures.
We are very exited by this collaboration, and we promise that we will work hard in order to deliver the best figures of 「Fist of the North Star AKA
HOKUTO NO KEN」ever made!
More information will follow soon!”
Storm Collectibles Announces Fist of the North Star License
Noice, if they make them how they've been doing mortal Kombat, Street Fighter and now Tekken, I'll be stoked to get these.
AW HELL YAH! Bring on rei and mamiya! I want both the manga colors ( purple outfit black hair ) and his green outfit white air anime colors for rei.
Well this is a pleasant surprise. If anyone can do Kenshiro justice, its Storm.
Holy shit. Everything Storm has been doing up until now has been leading to this. It's like the license they were born to make.

MY HEART!!!! This is just too much. I...I just need to sit down.
This should be good
Cool. Can't wait for a decent Jonathan Joestar figure
You are already dead. *POP*
I'm looking forward to seeing what Storm does with the license. Especially as it regards Raoh. Revoltech's versions will be very hard to beat IMHO...but Storm has proven that they can and will put in WORK...
Cool, but stupid of them not to finish at least the original Mortal Kombat cast first. Getting real tired of companies never going through the casts of MK in a timely manner
This announcement has me very excited, Hokuto No Ken is seriously overdue for some quality figures. I'm not a fan of clicky joints and V-crotches, so the revoltech stuff never did it for me. I'm hopeful Storm is going to knock these out of the park. Plus I can't wait to see what they'll do effects parts-wise.
