Sagat later defended his title of Emperor of Muay Thai against Go Hibiki, the father of Dan Hibiki. Sagat won the battle and became the new Emperor of Muay Thai. Sagat challenged the reigning Emperor of Muay Thai, Nuah Kahn to a fight for his title. The title of Emperor of Muay Thai was the most honorable accolade a Muay Thai fighter could possibly receive and the bearer of this title was seen as a national hero. Yet because it's Ryu, it's forced me to check out already.FYI, the PCS Toys Street Fighter line will be 1/6 scale not 1/12 scale.Sagat grew up in Thailand, where the style of fighting of Muay Tai was greatly revered and he had learned it since he could walk. Had the first character been any other character (other than Ken or Akuma.as they are tiresome as well) I would have been interested. Then there was the failed Kickstarter from Cappo Toys, which also featured Ryu, as well as the import figures (such as Revoltech).įor Ryu fans, this is an awesome chance to finally get a decent figure of him, and I can understand your excitement, however for many of us long time fans, we simply had our fill a long time ago. There were a couple of other Ryu's put out there, like the Jakks Pacific, and the upcoming 1/12 Ryu by PCS. Yet because it's Ryu, it's forced me to check out already. But Ryu is still rocking that same look from over 20 years ago, and it's tiresome and boring, especially when no matter what, you know he will always be the first character out the gate.įor Ryu fans, this is an awesome chance to finally get a decent figure of him, and I can understand your excitement, however for many of us long time fans, we simply had our fill a long time ago.

Same with Scorpion and Subzero over at the MK franchise. Even Ken (another poster boy I am not a fan of) has changed looks and appearances over the years.

My issue is simply with the character himself, who poster boy or not, I just find him to be incredibly dull and boring, both from a story and a design perspective. After Sot's entries, there really isn't any. There hasn't been a good abundance of Ryu toys, but then again, there simply hasn't been an abundance of good Street Fighter toys in general. Then there was the failed Kickstarter from Cappo Toys, which also featured Ryu, as well as the import figures (such as Revoltech). So I am not yawning, I am actually pretty excited for the remaining roster, especially Ken and Vega.There were a couple of other Ryu's put out there, like the Jakks Pacific, and the upcoming 1/12 Ryu by PCS. The fact that they are releasing this is at least comforting, assuming it will be reasonably priced and the proportions look pretty good. Neca's SF4 figure, I found, was bulky and rather ugly.Īre there other 6/7-inch Ryu figures I am forgetting, that are fully articulated (so I am dismissing the Resaurus line, which is basically articulated statues) ?Īnyway, getting the SOTA figures has been rather difficult lately as their prices has gone up. There's really only been one good Ryu figure, and thats the SOTA Ryu, which also is the younger Alpha-3 version of the hero. – 4 x Interchangeable Head Sculpts (featuring a injured head-sculpt)
