That was a depressing 20 minutes before the pre-order was listed lol. Glad everything worked out in the end.

I was refreshing the site at 11:59 am through 12:01 pm trying to get Evil Ryu. I added him to my cart, went to check out, had to wait in line for a minute or two, then got notification he was sold out.
With a limit of one per customer, it seems like they must have had about 10 for sale if they sold out that fast lol
But at least they put him up for preorder. I can wait till October (or later) for him.

Wave 3 looks to be a solid batch.
Guile, Cammy & Dee-Jay.
Can't wait for Guile & Cammy.
Hopefully they'll reveal Akuma & Zangief soon.

Very excited for Dee Jay. He was my guy in SF2 for the SNES.

Cammy, Dee Jay, and Guile all look great. I’m hoping we see a neutral face on Cammy, but I’m hearing she’ll have the expression we saw on the figure plus an additional screaming head. Still, this series is great so far.

Probably the most exciting reveals for me at SDCC. The Jada SF figs were the only reveals that felt like old school reveals (that is, wasn't expecting anything, then was blown away).
I don't have a single figure in my possession yet, but I'm all-in on this line. It's looking great with getting nine SSFII characters already (plus Evil Ryu).

I have Chun Li preordered through Big Bad, and I'll be on the lookout for preorder info on the next few waves. I've been seeing some interviews with Juhn from Jada and he says their goal is to make the original fighters from SFII, which is awesome since they're basically halfway there with what they showed at the con. I'd imagine that bigger characters like E. Honda and Zangief might get the deluxe treatment, similar to Evil Ryu. |

I haven't taken any photos, but I got Ryu last week from Amazon and then yesterday I grabbed Fei Long off Amazon with same-day shipping, so now I just need Chun-Li.
These figures are seriously awesome. Easily my favorite new line I've picked up in the last couple years or more. It's so great to finally have legit SF figures that are game accurate and not crazy expensive or poor quality.

I bought a SOTA Street Fighter Sakura figure many years ago and it broke when I just tried to do a swap with the alternate head. That might have been the first toyline I saw with swappable heads and hands but the quality was so poor and they were expensive. |

Yeah SOTA started strong but certain waves had awful plastic quality, I know Zangief and Dhalsim were notorious for being brittle and breaking. Out of all my SOTA stuff, I liked Sagat, Vega, Ken, and Blanka. I think Ken is the only one I have left. |

I don't know if I ever saw Ken (or Ryu, which may be the real reason I never started with the line), but Sagat, Vega, and Blanka looked awesome. |

I know this thread is for the Street Fighter figures but i thought this would be the best place to ask. I was just wondering does any retail store sell the Jada mascot/cereal monster figures? I was wanting the Boo Berry and Frankenberry but wanted to see them in person before purchasing.

Just the one, but it looked good in person. www.fye.com/franken-berry-6.25-moveable-figurine-with-alternate-head-and-cereal-box-fye.000000801310326510.htmlBack to SF: Paulmartstore was selling Chun Li on Amazon this past Thursday for $29.99. Now it’s listed at $34.99. The order I placed on Thursday is expected to arrive September 25. |

I keep waiting for Amazon (or some place else) to get it for $25, but it hasn't happened. It doesn't feel like one where it sold out; it feels like when, for whatever reason, it's the one figure in the series that didn't ship. I could be wrong, though. |

Thanks man,I thought I remember seeing Count&Frank somewhere but couldn't for the life of me remember where. I think it was FYE since you mentioned that. Ill check them out this week. Sorry to get off subject,I got what I needed. Back to our regularly scheduled programming lol |

Chun-Li arrived early! Yesterday, actually. Great service provided by Paulmartstore via Amazon.  Also, my Evil Ryu should be here by the end of the day Friday. Here are pics of the Ryu and Fei Long I received earlier this summer.   |

Got a shipping confirmation email for Evil Ryu. I got a mystery text from FedEx and checked the app, the only thing currently pending is from Jada so mine should be arriving soon enough. Now to wait for the Chun Li preorder to arrive at Big Bad. I’ve been loving these figures. |
