When I first pulled the trigger and bought this guy I was regretting it a bit and then He arrived in the mail. This is one of my favorite releases of the year. I'm so glad I have this figure. Some come and it's exciting for a day or two and then they go on the display shelf and pretty much get ignored but every time I pass by this figure I pick it up, mess with the pose, etc. this is a must have.
I seem to be one of the only people that actually likes the lion's mane version. Still, would have been a great addition if he had an alternate, OG head.
I'm not into street fighter but damn D, your posing and your eye for photography makes me want to buy this Akuma. Your photos are just top notch dude! You really show the posing potential these figures could have. Keep up the good work bruh! And yeah, I'll always drink my water HAHAHAHA
Fantastic video and he looks great. The "lion mane" has never really bothered me like some others. Oh and I didn't skip through your video. Showing how to apply his gi, the size comparisons and the picture gallery at the end are all top shelf. Thanks for sharing!
Great review brother!!! I wasn't going to give him a chance do to the whole lion thing but you've convinced me. This is a really good figure and I think I'll pick him up...
I LOVE this figure. Amazingly well executed and Akuma is one of my all time favorite characters. Are these really supposed to be 1:12 scale? They're so much bigger than Marvel Legends.
I'm extremely hype for this dude to come in. Im a huge Akuma fan and I wasn't crazy about the mane but it's still bad ass in its own right. I also love the fact that we also have a gi-less akuma figure along with the purchase. I wonder if someone will make an og akuma headsculpt to use rather than the mane though...
Ok so I watched a few of your videos and I gotta say thanQ as a person who wants to start doing reviews I'm glad I've watched your videos. You showed me what NOT to do the more videos I watch of yours I realized just how good Shartimus Prime is. I will say the music in the end is nice with the ACBC pic montage. So thanQ BTW CLEAN YOUR FINGERNAILS!
damn...now I kinda want this figure...lol I dont like the Lion mame but, the figure itself look great, Glad to know the hair is soft plastic. They shoulda went outta their way to make a 'classic' headculpt...but its whatever. I may just pick this up...eventually.
really hate the mane, but your review make rethink of getting this, or wait for a nostalgia or sfII version, also how is your chun li? dis she gave your more problems aside for her one ankle?
I got all the storm street fighter characters and some of the mortal kombat figures today, akuma was the first one I opened, I'm impressed with all the figures, but I think the chun li should have been a little shorter
Great review and good figure, but I simply cannot bear the horrid new design with the lion-flower mane. I really hate it so much that I don`t get the figure, for sure. They could have design a "classic" alternate head or something.
Hey d-amazing, by any chance would you be able to give us his height via inches? I appreciate the size comparisons but none of the figures you posed him with are in my collection and I really wanna grab this guy =/ thanks bro!
Dude i fucking love this mane it makes him kinda cute and i love it for that but i will be getting the classic version of him cause i want to put against my Heihachi and just because that is why i became a big fan of him!
This figure looks so dope, but I really want to have the classic look. Don't want to wait til April for the Figuarts version. Just might have to get this one.

I love these but I wish they came with additional hand pegs because my Kens broke and I don’t want to buy a whole nother one because of it.
I don't know why, but this figure makes me want Storm DBZ figures. Can't wait for mine to arrive.
Nice review. I was going to pass on this one. And you convinced me, now I can't wait to get him.. it's different figure and stands out.
Ok, NOW I'm getting this

I love this fighter alot
Should’ve done a comparison with shf ryu. Good review overall and lol at sad abomination in the background
Awesome!
Hello I from Malaysia I want ask how About the Akuma hand ball Joint , Dorable or not
damn...now I kinda want this figure...lol
I dont like the Lion mame but, the figure itself look great, Glad to know the hair is soft plastic.
They shoulda went outta their way to make a 'classic' headculpt...but its whatever.
I may just pick this up...eventually.
This whole figure looks badass but I’m a little worried about storm collectibles figure joints always popping off.
I like this outfit compare to the other version. But i kinda hate the lion mane head. Prefer the OG head with this body.
I'm holding out to see if SC does a SF2 Gouki since they got that license recently.
Even storm collectibles making the classic street fighter one ultra street fighter II the final challenger
really hate the mane, but your review make rethink of getting this, or wait for a nostalgia or sfII version, also how is your chun li? dis she gave your more problems aside for her one ankle?

Man you r so talented in making poses... no sweat u make so easy... but is not
i wasn't going to get it and stick with the figuarts version...that lion's mane bothered me but you made it look cool...lol
Hey d-amazing, by any chance would you be able to give us his height via inches? I appreciate the size comparisons but none of the figures you posed him with are in my collection and I really wanna grab this guy =/ thanks bro!
Where you bought this from please
nah i still cant take the angry sunflower thing on his head 😂
Dude i fucking love this mane it makes him kinda cute and i love it for that but i will be getting the classic version of him cause i want to put against my Heihachi and just because that is why i became a big fan of him!
I cant wait for custom heads I still dont get why they didnt include his og alt head...
They should put out a LE with the traditional look.
Is this the regular release??? The promo pics show a blue akuma and this one is black
Riley Craig thanks for the reply bro
12:18 You mean even without the lion mane?
would love storm to do a proper oni figure
I love akuma he's a bad ass fighter but the lion hair I'm not really felling the hair all around the head like that
If Tokido win Capcom Cup, I am going to buy this..
Isn’t it a gohadoken instead of a metsu hadoken? Awesome review though.
This figure looks so dope, but I really want to have the classic look. Don't want to wait til April for the Figuarts version. Just might have to get this one.
the figuarts is skinny weird though
I have the Classic one and now i‘ll get the Lion Akuma 💪🏻
is the extra gi really included?
dudungjoe yes.one with a blank back and one with the kanji.
really wish it didn't have the mane, but
sucks that the license is on sf v because it would be cool to have an alternate classic head on him...
I gonna get my beard and hair like Akuma😂
AYO HE CURSED
Abomination look dissapointed in not been shown.lol
normies will tell you get the shf version.. what a bunch of..
