Golden Axe Figures Coming From Storm Collectibles

[MarvelGuy85]

Lol wow. I mean good for Storm Collectibles, but really how BIG of a market will there really be for these? Especially if these are $65 on up figures? Personally I wouldn't think much, but I could be wrong.

I'd rather they stick with finishing up already started licenses like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter.

Very cool! Maybe Altered Beast isn't far behind..

Edit: also wanna see weapon lord and red earth/warzard

Don't give this company any more ideas! They've got way too many licenses as it is.

I am excited for these; partly because they can do 3 heroes and actually be "done" with a license. I was looking at Shao Kahn last night and was thinking about how they have a great idea with the armor being the soft plastic and can use the body parts for whoever else. I'm sure these guys will be doing some of that.

[RolandofGilead]

Depending on how they look, I may just add these figures to my Mythic Legions.

[deecee4]

They're generic enough designs that I'd imagine they'd be able to fit in with other lines relatively seamlessly.

[Joe Moore]

I figure you'll get the main three in standard colors, then perhaps a variant of those. They could easily use the Shao Kahn body base for Death Adder/Death Bringer and the Bad Brothers. And just about any of the enemies already have preset color variants thanks to the game.

One step closer to Streets of Rage figures.

I guess it's time to just send Storm a check of all my life savings at this point...

HELLYAH! I freaking love golden axe!
And theres the announcement of streets of rage 4 being made so im stoked!

[Primacron]

I want a 4" World of Sega line - Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, Shinobi, Ecco, etc!

[ludovicotek]

This is a dream come true! One of the most classic Sega games FINALLY getting figures! And coming from Storm??!! I'm all in on these.

[Dolemite]

This artwork is the most epically epic thing I've ever seen. Holy shit.

[Dolemite]

And yeah, I remember this game. Ah, the golden age of side-scrollers...

However, Storm already seems to have trouble releasing figures on a regular basis. It seems like they're announcing random new licenses every other day, how can they possibly keep up?

[deecee4]

I guess they pump out these announcements to maintain perpetual excitement about the company but yeah, the constant fluff announcements does have an air of vaporware to it, IMO.
Who knows if these will ever come out ...hope they do before the rubber on the Storm figures we already own starts deteriorating.

Try Golden Axe II, Boris Vallejo greatness...

[BagJo]

It's funny because I don't own a single Storm figure yet, but I'm already gearing up to give them a ton of money in 2019-20. Golden Axe is one of my truly favorite game series, so I'm allllll over these guys. I hope they come with the little green and blue gnome guys that carry the sacks of food and mana potions.

[EvilMonkeyPope]

The other painting look like it's by his wife, Julie Bell.

lol that's exactly what I was thinking too. I hope Storm leads with that when they show off figures.

It's Yoshiaki Yoneshima actually. Julie Bell did the cover for Ax Battler which was one of the sequels to Golden Axe.

[Tracer]

Awesome news. I can see my buying the main 3 and Death Adder easily.

Isn't it Boris? I think I can see his signature bottom right.

[Trivial Psychic]

Way out of left field...so that's cool...but wrong Sega franchise...

I want SC to do Virtua Fighter!

[Krunomo]

Storm need to calm down on the new licenses and move forward with the lines they've already got. By the time i finish my Mortal Kombat collection humans be living on mars.

[Tomax]

never heard of this game. i would like Altered Beast figures thou
