We wouldn’t have to worry so much about Fei Long or Charlie getting their own moment in the sun if they’d do away with rehashes like alpha Chunners and thin Bison. I’m willing to take bets now that series 6 voting will consist of:
Category 1: Grapplers!
SF2(skinny) Zangief
Hugo(again) - just go ahead and make the Hugo figure dammit. Otherwise he’ll just keep losing every time he’s up for a vote.
Category 2: The Chicks!
3rd Strike Chunners - yes, she’s a different sprite, so of course we’re stopping the advancement of the line to make room for her. AGAIN. Fanboys got a problem with that? Didn’t think so.
Poison - just in case you didn’t get the vibe that we really want to make Hugo.
Category 3: Fan Favs!
Charlie - because he won’t win round 5 so of course his turn is up next. AGAIN.
Hugo - you’re going to vote for him, one way or another.
Category 4: Retroactive!
alpha Ryu
alpha Charlie - oh wait.
Category 5: Weirdos!
Necro
Dhalsim - well at least the weirdos category is always fresh.
All in all j/k I love the SOTA figures and I’m glad the lines are rolling out as steadily as they are, hopefully they’ll keep selling and the whole menagerie will actually be finished in a couple years.
Zangief: Gotta go with 'Gief first! Although it was a tough decision to decide between either him or Hugo…besides, they’re two of my favorite grapplers in the SF series, and i’m planning on making a webcam thingy with SF action figures and Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children action figures as well…of course i’m planning a Hugo vs. Zangief match, but since I had to choose between either one of the two…I choose Gief since hes more well recognized…but if Hugos in the next one, i’ll choose him…as long as R. Mikas not going up against him though! ^^
Juli/Juni: Well we already got a Chun Li out, so Alpha Chun will have to wait…besides, this looks like a two pack and two packs are always great! ^^ :tup:
Charlie: I said that i’d vote for him this time…and I did! ^^ Although I wish that he wasn’t up against Guy…oh well, maybe he’ll be in Series 6! ^^
Rolento: Like with Chunners, we’ve already got a Bison out…besides, i’ve also been a big Rolento fan as well! ^^ Thin Bison will have to wait until all of the others come on out! ^^
Oro: As long as you can take his arms out of that sling, he’d be a great addition! Besides, i’m also an Oro fan as well…Dee Jay will have to wait! ^^
No Rescultps yet people!!! I dont mind what gets made cause chances are i will buy whole round regardless of who gets voted in cause i like all the choices but would prefer no resculpts no yet anyway.
Oro rocks! One handed fighter because hes too damn strong? now thats cool!
Zangief - I just prefer him over Hugo… I mean, the Red Cyclone’s a Capcom Legend
Alpha Chun-Li - 'Cuz I’m a Chun-Li fanboy, baby! :rock:
Charlie Nash - Very tough for me because I really like Guy, but Charlie’s one of my all-time favs and seeing his brief role in the comic only made me like him more!
Rolento - Either that or “thin” Bison? That’s a joke right…?
Dee Jay - Oro’s a little yellow blob w/one arm… like I would really want a figure like that… :lame:
As for my figures, which are to date: Chun-Li, Ken, Vega, & Bison I completely obliterate the packaging and place the character on my bookshelf in a unique trademark pose and let it collect dust and show it off to all my buds when they come to my house.
I’m happy that Juni and Juli are finally up, but… Alpha Chun-li, Thin Bison, and even J&J to a lesser extent (but fortunately a FAR lesser extent compared to Alpha Chun-Li so vote for Juli and Juni!)… it kinda seems a bit early to me to start bringing out the alternate redo-versions
^^it’s still better than a rehashed Chunners. Juni/Juli may just turn out to be head/paint swaps, but it’s two more people off the roster of yet-to-be-produced characters, as opposed to re-releasing one.
Sweetness. Like I mentioned earlier, I don’t think the Cammy figure’s sculpt was that great… I’ll be looking forward to seeing if Juni and Juli turn out better.
Hugo (Because 7’10" guys are cool.)
Juni/Juli (Twins are cool.)
Guy (Ninjas are cool.)
Rolento (Psycho commandos are cool.)
Oro (Sorry Sano but one-armed guys that can beat the crap out of Ryu are cool.)
I’ve been trolling some action figure collecting sites for the last few months, and it boggles the mind. Who The Fuck Still Plays Street Fighter 2? Third Strike and Alpha 3 are all you need.
Anyway I voted for…
Zangief
Juni/Juli (2 for 1, which kinda sucks 'cause I love Alpha Chun-Li)
Guy
Rolento (Guy and Rolento are my favorite characters. I can’t not vote for them)
Oro (Probably the most powerful character in the series. Or not. Whatever,I want him now!)
