It's unfortunate, because all roads to future figures always go through Ryu, and I'm just burnt out on this guy.
Cool I was just curious if it was before. I guess if you got burned already a few times then it makes sense. I know the feeling (like movie characters alot of the time only get some of the characters. Unrelated to SF of course)

Internal struggles like these make him less one-dimensional than what he was initially portrayed as.

Onto the figure, he definitely looks really good but I feel a bit let-down by the "calm" face as even though it has a great resemblance to the game model, there's sth about it that doesnt make it look exactly right (I think the eyes might be too narrow but I could be wrong).

As for extras, I wish we got the bearded Ryu head !
Wow sounds like you know quite a bit about Ryu. I have to admit I preordered the figure today solely because of the bad ass look of the figure, and character. And I too like the loan wolf type tough guys and he fits the part. Plus a small part went to watching gijoe vrs street fighter and thats where i was introduced to these characters. But beyond that I don't know these characters, which is weird since im almost 40 now & i been collecting toys for over 20 years. But when I find toys I like I research the series and characters. Is there any anime for Street Fighter for out there you can point me to? (Or anyone else)

Do you guys do that? Find a line of toys you like so much it brings you to be able to relate to the series so it's enjoyable, more then before? It's either that or I go after the toys from watching the series. One or the other :P
