Samurai Shodown Figures coming from Beast Kingdom
So thereabouts the same size as the Storm ones?
Hope the tailoring is on point, it'll be killer to see these done right.
Looks pretty cool, pricing isn't too off from Storm and are bigger but I'll probably just stick with that line.
My day is made. Can't WAIT to see Ukyo.
As long as SOMEBODY gets to Charlotte ASAP
Nice....
Look forward to the "Real" ;^)
Samurai Shodown Jubei Yagyu Figure by Beast Kingdom
I think it looks a bit odd (HS and baggy cloth).
Looks pretty good IMO but is more expensive than I thought. Comes with a lot of stuff so that's nice.
I know this is off topic, but I'm a little surprised that nobody has done much with Samurai Jack. I could easily imagine a line of Smurf-style figurines for some of the favorite characters from that series. I see that somebody made a weak attempt a few years ago, but it doesn't seem to have amounted to much.
Is Beast Kingdom gonna do figures for other SNK fighting games like Fatal Fury? I was hoping for a new Terry Bogard and don't know if Storm Collectibles will reissue their regular Terry figure.
