Jada Street Fighter

I had been waiting on sales for some. Have been able to get sales on half of them. But caved and bought them the ones I didn't have for the same reason.

I caved and bought basically all of these the other day. Don't even have a place to put them, but man they're fun. I guess I kind of wanted to buy some fun action figures before the tariffs make this hobby less fun.

This is one of those lines I'm happy to pay full price for at least until the tariffocalypse happens. They're just magnificent figures for the money (especially having tried to get into import Street Fighter figures which requires like, selling a limb to afford).
 
I just found a lone Sagat and a lone Blanka at target and my goodness these are big boys. And for $5 more than an average figure? Gonna savor these deals while I can!
 
For the first time, I finally saw these at a brick-and-mortar retail store. Like others have reported, it was at Wal-Mart and it was Wave 1. They had 3 or 4 each of all 3 characters from Wave 1 for $29.99 each.

They are very nice-looking figures.
 
Did Vega go up for preorder anywhere yet? I was looking for Blanka and Sagat on Deep Discount and noticed he also has a listing with no pics. Listed for release 7/31.
 
Took down the DC and put up the Street Fighter to celebrate getting Sagat and Blanka. My goodness I like how this looks. It's just a good, fun toy line!

@yojoebro82 this isn't a line I've bought into yet but your picture of it all together and your posing makes me regret my decisions. I just didn't play much Street Fighter as a kid because I never owned the game. I was a complete Mortal Kombat junkie instead and only played Street Fighter when I'd stay over at friends' houses. The characters are all iconic though even with only a passing familiarity with the game.
 
So I'm not really a Street Fighter person as I've never played the game but I got Cammie awhile back to try a Jada figure and it felt pretty great. Smooth joints, sturdy, and just felt a grade better than Hasbro. Today I picked up Sagat, Blanka and Tony the Tiger. Again, these all feel a step above, plastic quality-wise. These are great figures. I do slightly worry about Blanka's soft plastic crotch piece holding up. I'm tempted to get the full series. I did buy a new laptop that comes with a free month of XBox games, so maybe I'll give one of the versions a try. I suck at gaming, though.
 
Even if you're just looking for well made toys, Jada is worth checking out. I have their Mega Man and Creature from the Black Lagoon. No major attachment to either but both feel like they are the best figures they could be for the price point.
I'm not a gamer by any stretch but I have fond memories of the Nintendo, Super Nintendo and N64 from the 90s. Street Fighter 2 was a go to game for my brother and I.
 
I wanted to add, that something a small as giving both Blanka heads different hair shows they put passion into their work. I'm sure they could have easily used the same hair pieces for each head, but they didn't.
