I loved Jada’s announcements at SDCC2023, not only are we getting Cammy, Guile and Deejay for Wave 3, we’re getting more cereal figures (hoping we get Cap N Crunch and the Trix Rabbit one day) and more Megaman stuff too. Jada’s killing it.
Jada is thriving right now. You can tell its a passion project or pride thing bc it shows in everything theyre doing so far, even with mega man. I have no problem with evil ryu being a repaint. Looking forward to the player 2 paint jobs.
I agree, I'd rather exclusives be repaints and not new, stand alone sculpts. And Jada is absolutely killing it, although I'm curious how they handle some of the more unique characters like Dhalsim, who should ideally come with lots of accessories like multiple stretched limbs, fireballs and faces, and bigger characters like Zangief and Honda.
A perfect example of how art can be affordably sold without any disappointments. Companies like Jada and Valaverse continuously prove that at a $20-$30 range, near-perfection can be available to our community. And those products look very well beside their more expensive counterparts on any of our display. Thanks for this review AN.
I am so happy with the Evil Ryu figure, with how well this line has started out so far I don’t mind the SDCC being a repaint, especially if it is a character like this. I can’t wait til Guile and Cammy come out. I am getting all these figures and never thought I would be getting into this line and glad I held off on getting the Storm Collectible figures. I like 6-inch figures but don’t care too much for the 7-inch line since I want most of mine to go with my Classified/Action Force figures.
First let me say the opening to this review is fucking great! I had to preorder this perfection of plastic from Jada. Now I get to play the waiting game, hopefully they'll have them out when or before the expected date. If they are able to do so, it will help cement them as a force to be reckoned with in the action figure market.
Hasbro being out done by a die-cast car company who just got into action figures, from detail to articulation, at 25 dollars is insane. Good for us consumers to have more figures to choose from, but sad that Hasbro has been at it for years and isn't up to this quality per dollar. When their Cammy comes out I better see you making an army of soldier thickys, AN!
Hasbro killed optimus prime in the 1986 Movie so Hasbro needs to sufer in some way 😂😅 for that so im glad they are getting there ass kicked by Jada Toys!!!😅😂🎉🎉🎉
I think the NECA SDCC Alf was the perfect exclusive. Essentially the same figure but with a little something extra that makes him special for the people at the event.
Personally I'm not a fan of exclusives in general cause they're usually limited and almost always a huge pain to try to get. That being said, this figure looks amazing! I already got the regular Ryu and have Fei Long on the way! I'll probably pass on getting this one but I really hope Jada Toys comes out with a Zangief figure sometime in the future.
I use to have Sota Toys Gouken SDCC exclusive. However that was 20 years ago. I prefer repaints and extra stuff as exclusive than original figure because of how difficult these wide release figures are to get.
Great video as always Ninja.. As someone who can’t go to comic con, I think repaints and figures with a special accessory are perfect for Cons. At least that way people like me can at least get the main line release. But that’s just my opinion and I can totally see the point of others who want 💯 new figures. 🤙🏻
A shame that this is SDCC exclusive because Evil Ryu is my main in Street Fighter Alpha 2 But great video nonetheless as I have been waiting for you to review this guy.
We should ask Mr. Bobby vala, but I do prefer that exclusives be repaints that way it’s easier to complete a set. And for those that want repaints can also seek those out. I feel like that would generate more money rather than a limited run of a one off. Think of all those that would have bought it but no supply. And repaint is cheaper than a whole new mold. So every sale after the original, is that higher of a profit margin. But idk I don’t own a toy company or make figures soo…. Lol
I much prefer a repaint, retool, etc, as an exclusive. I hate when main line character is an exclusive of any kind, even store exclusives.... actually, especially store exclusives, as I have an easier time obtaining SDCC exclusives. It does have to be a repaint that makes sense, and this Ryu repaint makes sense, and the accessories are a nice bonus as they can be incorporated for use with other figures. Bad example, Hasbro's G.I.Joe Con Exclusives. I have last year's and I did manage to pre-order a Chuckles with no issue, and without being a Pluse Premium member. Now, I am glad they made enough to go around... or will since technically no one walked away from their booth with a Joe Exclusive. They got a QR code... awesome. (Sarcasm) It wouldn't be as upsetting if they made retail versions of those characters, but that doesn't appear to be the case. At least this was readily available, hence you're reviewing one.
SF is all about repaints. Look at how many colors they did in just SF2. I dont think alt costume colors should be exclusive, but maybe by adding different effects pieces it might make them more sought after. As for Evil Ryu, this is kind of perfect for an exclusive. The added price for such a few added accessories is a bit worrisome though. I do like how Jada did it though, buying it from their site or at SDCC. And I am all in on this line and Megaman.
Many quarters and calling next. For me an exclusive should be a new figure but one that won't hurt if you don't get. But if you have it, then it's a bragging right or oh damn you are a fan. Dammmmmn those big Ole....
I just have Ryu and Fei Long. I was not in need of evil Ryu. But I am waiting for my girl Chun Li. Then Ken won't be too far long off. I think he said Ken and M. Bison will happen in the fall too. Rubber Yoga guy whose name I can say but not spell and need to always look up to spell it right, comes in early 2024. But I was super excited seeing Cammy and Guile. More so Cammy. That's my girl in street fighter six now. I will get Dee Jay too. I might get that one cyberpunk girl Lucy. She will be in the 40 dollars range. But she looks cool. I'm a bit fickle. LOL, I feel like the street fighter figures are too anime-looking to mist with Joes and Valaverse. Now Legends and only now have my new Black Widow, Captain America, Hawkeye, Ironman, and Elektra,,, well two Elektra now. That Daredevil version of her looked much cooler in person. I could not pass her up. But kind of a special unit now to deal with crap like those upcoming zombie-looking vipers and Serpentor. But I do mix them with Masterverse and Ninja turtles. That new Daredevil figure based on Matt being the king of the Fist ninja with the beard will be a part of that. I may have to troop-build some of his fist ninja figures. He does go with that new Elektra. She wore that DD suit when she became the Fist Queen, King, and queen of the Fist clan. Get that Elektra if you didn't get her yet. I think you will like it.
I think this is a perfect way to make an exclusive, you can always tone down the accessories and repackage it for the “main” line… I hate how hasbro made GI Joe core characters as exclusives (Serpentor, dr mindbender)
Brand new sculpts for exclusives will always be better than a repaint. I’m not opposed to exclusives being repaints, I’m just saying a new sculpt will always loosen my wallet quicker than a new color will.
I like the repaint route. While getting a new sculpt & figure overall would be awesome I think this is very collector friendly. And with the amount of color variants that SF characters actually have In game it makes sense than a jokerized of frostbite recolor variant from McFarlane lol not to mention it isn’t just a simple repaint they genuinely differentiate releases by including new and extra accessories
Cannot wait for future releases! Going to buy every figure twice becaus the packaging is dope! (i'm not usually an inbox collector either) I was also surprised this SDCC exclusive is available internationally. Here in New Zealand & also in Australia, it's up for pre-order.
I can go either way with exclusives repaints or new body sculpt, they just have to make it worth my while. Quick question is this figure available to get...been so busy I've lost track of which figures are coming out and where to get them.
I have this on pre order and coming to me late this year I already have the others waiting on chun li this month seeing this review I can't wait for mone
🦖: I don't mind nor care about repaints being exclusive. 👀 If they're good, they're good.~ But when it's new sculpt/paint I also appreciate the effort put into it a bit more. 👀 I also tagged you in a few posts on my posting bananza I had one day.~ 😂 I hope you enjoy the idea I had when my blades on my Predator broke. My quick fix.~ & I did fix/mod my plasma caster. 👀
Exclusives should be repaints but In this case is different, Evil Ryu takes a spot on SSF2T's roster so he counts as another character, I'd prefer if he was not exclusive since now I won't be able to complete the collection with every character from the game, hope they don't do the same thing with Violent Ken
I don't think character should ever be exclusive. It just ain't right to me. Unless the company plans to release the character later on for the mass market. Repaints are fine as exclusives, they should include bonus accessories though that way people feel like they are getting something unique.
Honestly believe that the repaint exclusives are t best because of the usual difficulty of getting them. As long as the repaint is not the “most wanted” version ie Ryu with white outfit
I dont like any exclusives that are unattainable. Unfortunately this repaint to you is another selectibkr character that I feel is missing from my collection now. Fortunately, it is still up for preorder on their website so I’m super happy to know I will have hom
I'm not a fan of exclusives being new characters. I prefer them just be variants of existing characters so people don't miss out. Let the exclusives be passable. I can stay something for the completions to get. I got the closed mouth SDCC Gouken's from SOTA. That was the only time Gouken ever got a figure. If someone wanted Gouken and wasn't able to get it from SDCC they were out of luck.
I don't mind exclusives being repaints as opposed to a new character. That way if you can't get the exclusive you're not really missing anything. Jada is banging. Jada and Liose Collectors are my new favorite companies.
I'm on the fence. I feel like repaints are whatever. I love repainted enough figures that I can be like yeah nah, I'm not paying extra for different colors when I can do the same thing with about an hour plus a pen and a pad. On the other hand, I feel like one off figures are bullshit too. If you are gonna make it, make it for everyone. Not everyone can leave their twin babies at home to catch a jet to the other side of the country in order to get a one off. I think one offs that are limited productions are a big fuck you to the fans like "yeah nah fam, couldn't take off from work to come to the con? Fuck you, get the regular shit at walmart"
I'd rather an exclusive be a repaint or non-standard version of a character. It's infuriating when a standard figure or an army builder is put out as an "exclusive" (FU Hasbro!).
more like non-articulate ninja, some guy in purple? you say " or whatever" about 20 times in this review because your clueless about most of the lore. Evil Ryu is supposed to have a gaping hole in his chest and they just gave you a repainted figure with three heads that are just repaints of the same mold. Lazy cash grab.
🤣😂 you really upset I didn't know the lore I hope your not a grown man acting like a child lol about lore. Also in street fighter 2 which this is based on he doesn't have the hole your referring 2 in every rendition so fail on your end. Even storm collectibles made this very figure from SF2 and has no hole version. 🤣 so hopefully your not a grown man getting upset about something your wrong about Richard.

I have no problem with evil ryu being a repaint. Looking forward to the player 2 paint jobs.
Jada Toys is killing it with this street fighter line
Found both Ryu & Fei Long at my local target. Instant pick up. Some of my favorite figures this year.
I’m in for the whole line at this price/quality.
I agree, I'd rather exclusives be repaints and not new, stand alone sculpts. And Jada is absolutely killing it, although I'm curious how they handle some of the more unique characters like Dhalsim, who should ideally come with lots of accessories like multiple stretched limbs, fireballs and faces, and bigger characters like Zangief and Honda.
Dhalsime comes with extra arms/legs that are long and are bendable and I think a fire effect
What do you think now that he is out
A perfect example of how art can be affordably sold without any disappointments. Companies like Jada and Valaverse continuously prove that at a $20-$30 range, near-perfection can be available to our community. And those products look very well beside their more expensive counterparts on any of our display. Thanks for this review AN.
What makes Jada a great company is they mastered die cast molding, so they will perfect plastic molding very easily
I wish they gave JadaToys the opportunity to make Marvel vs Capcom characters. Oh my God that would be crazy!
Im ok with the repaint as well. But the extra heads and accessories is where they won my money. Jada killing it. 💯
you should make videos about your old figures, great collection
I am so happy with the Evil Ryu figure, with how well this line has started out so far I don’t mind the SDCC being a repaint, especially if it is a character like this. I can’t wait til Guile and Cammy come out. I am getting all these figures and never thought I would be getting into this line and glad I held off on getting the Storm Collectible figures. I like 6-inch figures but don’t care too much for the 7-inch line since I want most of mine to go with my Classified/Action Force figures.
I'm so glad, I pre-ordered this!!! I'm honestly more excited about getting this than the original ❤
My dude, those poses are phenomenal. Great job. And to answer the question, yes, an exclusive should be a repaint and not a new character.
Just think if Jada keeps going with the line later characters like Hugo would be about the size of Storm Zangeif wow!
i can't wait for mine to arrive on November, another solid figure, another solid review! Cheers bro!
I can’t wait till the cyber punk characters come out! They look sick
First let me say the opening to this review is fucking great!
I had to preorder this perfection of plastic from Jada. Now I get to play the waiting game, hopefully they'll have them out when or before the expected date. If they are able to do so, it will help cement them as a force to be reckoned with in the action figure market.
"STOP IT! get some help".😂😂😂😂 bruh! 😂😂😂
Just Pre-ordered after seeing the thumbnail. I want to collect every figure in this line so I can't miss one.
Love these jada street fighter figures I can't wait to grab the mega man figures
Hasbro being out done by a die-cast car company who just got into action figures, from detail to articulation, at 25 dollars is insane.

🔥🔥🔥 Outstanding Figure Posing 🔥🔥🔥🫡🫡🫡
MY childhood is clapping at ya bra, thanks for the video. 👏💯
I think the NECA SDCC Alf was the perfect exclusive. Essentially the same figure but with a little something extra that makes him special for the people at the event.
Honestly Evil Ryu is ready to whoop some ass and take names, but mostly whoop ass.
Exclusives should mostly be repaints, Jada is doing it perfect!
I think Exclusive should be repaints but also should come with stuff that makes it special like extra accessories, effects, and alternate heads/faces.
I am so hyped for their Cyberpunk edge-runners prototype figures and I need them.
I present ordered mine with happiness. I think this was an awesome get.
I think Jada did great with this.
Loved the intro!!!!!
Personally I'm not a fan of exclusives in general cause they're usually limited and almost always a huge pain to try to get. That being said, this figure looks amazing!

Well worded sk8 thanks
Just found you my G!!! I’m definitely rockin wit your channel, keep up da good work cuzo 💯
Glad I could help
I hope they keep it going into the SF series. I need a really good Guy figure.
Your reviews are great!
I think that repaints as exclusives is fine.
figure is 10 out of 10 I see this line going very far.
A shame that this is SDCC exclusive because Evil Ryu is my main in Street Fighter Alpha 2
But great video nonetheless as I have been waiting for you to review this guy.

Exclusives should be proper repaint imo. Bit different than the regular release, so I will say this one is a good repaint sdcc. Wish I could get this

Jada needs to make an open mouth head sculpt
I haven’t bought any yet cuz I’m waiting on the big guys to come out but yea jada is killing the game as well as killing the hasblow fan boys
Agree with you exclusives should be repaints
I always prefer exclusives be a repaint, idealy a deep dive. I want it to be a bonus to have it, not have my collection penalized for not having it.
Definitely this.
Looks cool
I just paid $120 for mine today. My friend bought 2 of them and I convinced him to sell me his 2nd unopened box for $120
Petition for the full version of the song at the end...
You make me want to play with my figures

It’s a cool figure but I’m not a street fighter fan. Always s leaned more to Mortal Kombat. That’s the only reason I haven’t gotten into this line.
I'm not a fan of exclusives being new characters. I prefer them just be variants of existing characters so people don't miss out.
Let the exclusives be passable. I can stay something for the completions to get.
I got the closed mouth SDCC Gouken's from SOTA. That was the only time Gouken ever got a figure.
If someone wanted Gouken and wasn't able to get it from SDCC they were out of luck.
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I feel like storm collectibles would kill it if they did "1/12" scale, instead of 1/6 scale 🤦🏿♂️
i think if you gonna make a Ryu then you have to make the Evil Ryu.
Con exclusives should always be repaints.
This Ryu has much better skin color than the regular Ryu, the non evil one looks like a 🥕
I’m ok with repaint exclusives due to not everyone can get it
yeah ninja its called a Gi (gee)
I prefer exclusives to be simple repaints. I don't want an original character to be hard to get by making it an exclusive.
