Earlier this week, we got a teaser for the first Samurai Shodown figure from Storm Collectibles. They have shared an update, and have opened up pre-orders for the Samurai Shodown – Haohmaru 1/12 Scale Action Figure. The figure includes three interchangeable head sculpts, four sets of swap out hands, his Fugudoku sword, a sheath for the sword, and a slashing attack effect.
SAMURAI SHODOWN has enjoyed worldwide success as a blade-wielding fighting game series since its first release in 1993. 11 years have passed since the last series installment, and it is now time for SAMURAI SHODOWN to return in a brand-new game featuring high-end visuals and gameplay!
HAOHMARU is the main protagonist of the Samurai Shodown series and one of the series’s most known characters. He was introduced in the first Samurai Shodown and continues to appear in every title of the series.
Features:
– 3 x Head Sculpt
– 4 x Pair of Hand
– 1 x Fugudoku (Haohmaru’s sword)
– 1 x Slashing Attack Effect
The figure is available to pre-order directly from Storm Collectibles. It’s priced at $85, and is due for release in the Fourth Quarter. You can see all of the new images after the jump.

Preview of the Samurai Shodown Haohmaru Figure from Storm Collectibles
Damn. This guy looks excellent.
Never really cared for homaru but hope to get to see galford and hanzo soon.
That looks so good, Storm is on a roll with releases and licenses. They haven't slowed much at all.
About time Storm made a preview of this.
Tachibana Ukyo, please! I'll probably get them all. This series is my favorite fighting game series of all time.
Mine as well and Ukyo definitely should be made.
This and Darkstalkers could take a lot of my money.

I don't meet to many SamSho fans. I'd love to have Ukyo and Genjuro posed in ready stances about to square off. My buddy always played Genjuro and I Ukyo (That was 25 years ago!). I've been waiting for SamSho figures for a long LONG time.

I wonder how posable Haomaru would be (e.g. can he be in his neutral fighting pose) and how many effect parts we will be getting.
Samurai Shodown Haohmaru Figure from Storm Collectibles - The Toyark - News
Looks pretty nice, I wish they'd included something else though, looks a little bare. The World Heroes guys come with that giant dragon effect for basically the same price. If it was cheaper I'd be ok with it. But having them all be about the same price with some coming with wildly large effects pieces is a little annoying.
My exact thought. No cyclone effect part and no smile/grin face with $85 price tag....
The details mentioned 3 HS - what's the difference between the 1st and 2nd ???
Frankly, I'm a little disappointed.

The more I think about it, I'm not too bothered by lack of stuff since I'm sure the World Heroes fans are thrilled they don't have to pay $120 for those figures. It's not so bad to spread costs about a line I guess.
Looks so good. It will be hard not to pick it up
I almost passed on this... but I love Stormco. and you cant go wrong with a random samurai. Hope they continue the Street Fighter line though. They were finally getting to the secondary characters.
Up for pre-order at BBTS.
Yeah...Nice Figure. Look at those gunboats!!!
Unboxing video is already on youtube.
