I think it's a strange unspoken rule in the Japanese figure-collecting community/industry that female figures NEED that kawaii anime face, no matter the source material.

We've seen this enough time to write it off as singular cases.

Revoltech Spider-Gwen's bizarre unmasked face that looks 1) nothing like any artwork she has, and 2) doesn't even fit scale-wise with the rest of her body, yet you see Japanese collectors commenting that "at least she has a cute face". Dafuq?

And with this Bandai line, we have Rashid's extremely game-accurate look, Ryu's pretty game-accurate look, and Chun and Cammy's butchered faces that look nothing like the in-game models.

Luckily, we still have Storm to fall back on, and since they're not Japanese, they don't seem to be adhering to the same "standards".
