The gritted teeth look more like an unnatural smile... like "Hurry up and take the picture, this speedo is too tight and I want to wear my sweatpants!"

I will definitely consider getting the dwarf, Gilius Thunderhead, if they make him. Tyris and Ax would be made better with seamless 1/12 figures, imho. Might get this just for the dragon and sell Ax.

Definitely getting this! I agree in hoping that they make the dwarf as that's who I always played as, but these sets look great. I hope they give the magic potions as accessories to some of them. I don't think 1/12 seamless would work, at least not the seamless ones available now. Storm figures are pretty big, closer to 1/10. I generally like the way their articulation works anyway, I've never really been disappointed with a Storm figure.

Same. I always played as Gilius too. Would love a villain pack with the treasure thiefs and the "fat twins"

Yeah, current seamless would be too small, but if Storm did them as seamless (they use really soft plastic already, so it wouldn't be much of a stretch) it would work... as for disappointment, sculpt-wise, they are beautiful. longevity is questionable. My Sub-Zero is now virtually unarticulated because of the amount of superglue needed to glue the figure back together from just regular handling and posing. Storm's customer service is inexistent. Scorpion and Goro are holding up well, so I'm hoping it's just a rare dud.

I have almost the entire MK lineup, I probably don't handle mine that much but they're all doing fine right now. Biggest complaint is Scorpions spear plastic is too soft and droops over time.

I got mine, and during a routine photoshoot Subzero had a leg mishap. Then while photographing Goro with the ninjas, Subzero had a shoulder mishap. I treat my figures with kid gloves, and instantly stop the second there is any resistance. Seems to just be Sub-Zero. Scorpion does seem fine, and Storm has recently posted they've improved their figures, so hopefully nothing will happen with future purchases. I will be getting Ultra SFII Ken and Ryu soon, so hopefully they will be good.

Yes, Scorpion has a droopy spear. I pose mine with the rolled up spear.

hmmmmmmm...

Well, there are a lot of Sega fans out there and many of us are are Golden Axe fans. I still fire up Beast Rider from time to time as the most modern iteration and I'm the only one of my group of friends that completed Duel on my Saturn...

While I'm not into Storm enough to grab this, it's awesome to see and doesn't surprise that it would sell out.

hmmmmmmm...

I just had to open up a Paypal dispute with StormCo for not answering my emails and Paypal messages regarding the Cammy SFV figure I pre-ordered back in June and is now being sold by BBTS. Last month they left Sagat out of my order of Ryu, Ken, Sagat, & Guile and they ended up re-shipping me the order but instead of just sending the missing Sagat, they sent me an extra Ryu, Ken, and Guile lol. So I don't know what is going on with Storm Co's customer service, but its really really bad.

Storm should do Tyris, Gilius and most especially, Death=Adder. Provided that Ax would sell well which I hope it does.

I’m sure they will. So far, they are too new to determine if they flake on a line. They just stagger releases. Mortal kombat and street fighter have had a fairly steady stream of releases. I’m sure their other 20,000 licenses will get just as much attention...

That being said, if I were to choose a Sega game, it’d be Altered Beast... all scaled to goro height. I’d grab the Golden Werewolf and the Weredragon. Maybe the weretiger too.

Getting this for sure. If they did Streets of Rage or Final Fight I'd buy every figure. Even color variants. Make it happen Storm.

I might buy Streets of Rage figure, but I want them to get more done with the licenses they have first lol. Did they ever even show a Samurai Showdown figure yet? I remember they announced they had that license.

Fair enough. I really want all the SF II characters myself. I honestly didn't even know they had the Sam Sho License. I'd buy those figures too.

They're coming in 2 packs, only $58 on Storm's site, pretty good to army build.

No interest in the Golden Axe IP but will get these to go with my MK figures. Also, despite saying their figures are 1:12 they're much closer to 1:10 so these will probably scale well with NECA figures.

Not interested in Golden Axe, but I might have to get those skeletons for other purposes.
