I wasn't aware that Jazwares is making more Street Fighter figures than just Ryu, Ken, and Akuma. It looks like they will be released simultaneous with SOTA through next year. Granted, SOTA's figures seem superior in sculpting and articulation, but Jazwares appears to be releasing characters that SOTA is not. Here is a link to a gallery of Jazwares' Street Fighter assortment: 69.93.119.2/photo/1/showgallery.php?cat=1791If anyone knows the names of the other Street Fighter people (other than Ryu, Ken, and Akuma) could you tell me?

There's Dan(in pink gi), Sean(yellow gi), and Dee Jay(orange pants). Thank you. I was right, SOTA and Jazwares are doing different figures (beyond Ryu and Ken). That is cool, more variety. The arms definitely seem like Jakks RA figures, but these will have less articulation. I have heard they will have 13 points of articulation, so by my estimate those will be: Neck (possibly ball jointed), Shoulders (ball joints), upper arms, elbows, wrists, hips, knees. Not bad.

It's not a Jakks torso exactly, but it is reminiscent of the RA torso as it has the ball jointed shoulder and the joint just below it. But SOTA has those too, and a ton more articulation!

I like those better than the Sota ones. Those are really cool and the carding is awesome.

I don't think they have Jakks Toros but in the pics they actually look like they may work with Jakks for customizing purposes. That would be cool.

It looks simliar to the R3 playset. I wouldn't be suprised. I remember when I was little the Robin Hood: Prince of Theives playset was the EXACT same playset released as the "Star Wars Ewok Village" except it had tree tops. Funny stuff.

Weird...they are using old Jakks parts. I guess these will be compatible with TTL figures then

Yes, that is CLEARLY the old heavyweight torso from the TTL line. I pulled one out just to check. Same cuts in the abs muscle definition.
And that is the old R3 playset, with a few different add-ons. But its the loading dock.
That's kinda funny.

Thats shocking I wonder if there both using the same sculpters. The Jazwares versions will be retailing for around 7.00 and the SOTA are about 12.00-15.00. I'm in actual awe about this right now.
I wonder if the 2 companies will work together, unless thats SOTAs way of getting them in TRU is by distributing them thru Jazwares
