During his time among the animals, he turned feral and grew in power in order to survive the harsh way of life.

As a fan of the Street Fighter franchise I am very happy to see these figures released. The only downside is that you can only order them online on one particular website www.cornerstorecomics.com. They are reasonable priced however. Both sets together would cost around $135 and that's including shipping. It costs more when you buy them seperately.
