juanjorman How do you find the quality of the SOTA Revolution Street Fighter figures? I never bought any of them when I collected the series. Well I have Zangief, Dhalsim and E.Honda. Never really cared for R.Mika as a character so I didn't buy her. I can tell you that IMO Dhalsim is the best out of the three mentioned before; his design is excellent; the only issue probably is he could be out of scale, although I'm not 100% sure. Honda is pretty awesome too; he needed to be a bit smaller I think but still he rocks; Zangief on the other hand is IMO not as good as the rest. I mean his design is nice and all, and his scale is great but the big issue is loose joints. I always try to take care of my figures as much as I can and haven't really posed him much because he can barely stand. His legs are the issue I think. Other than that is passable I guess. If you're into SF collecting you should join the Street Fighter Collector Society group on FB. www.facebook.com/groups/284397951606564/ Anthony from Anthony's Customs had the chance to make a full interview on the upcoming line from Capo Toys, he should be posting that soon. They're looking to retail those for around $20-$25 each. Perhaps you can save tons of money by going for those instead. Sota are great but are pretty expensive nowadays. I'm still missing Bison but I refuse to pay more than $100 for him.

Hey guys, I have to say I'm very dissapointed that we didn't get new prototypes at all on this year's NYTF... I mean, it's been a year since they showed 17,18 Nappa and Shenron and only one of those has gotten a release date... This line is going at a very slow pace in my humble opinion. I initially started to collect this line in hopes of getting Yamcha but as time passed and I got more and more of these, I got really into the line to a point that I just wanted to get new prototypes; not necessarily Yamcha. So waited a whole year for what could be the year's biggest toy convention, for what? to see 18 standing alone as the only "new" prototype... I mean I'm just dissapointed ... Don't get me wrong, their lineup looks nice, I love what these guys do. I liked the Naruto announcement, which caught my attention, their Sailor Moon line seems to be doing great, and Mario looks beast... but cannot help worrying that they will focus more on those lines instead of the DBZ and my dream of seeing a Yamcha prototype has been pushed another year... or more. Sorry guys just wanted to express how I feel about this.

Seeing your Street Fighter figures really has me wanting mine back now lol. I think I may just buy the main characters from the SF II movie. Already got a good deal on Guile and Chun Li to join Ryu and Ken Hey man! You might want to consider the upcoming 7" Street Fighter Figures line! A company called Capo Toys is making them and they will do pretty much what Sota did; 5 rounds of 5 characters. First round is Ryu, Guile, Blanka, Chunli and Sagat. They will be based on the SFIV game. They'll be displayed on NYTF!!! news.toyark.com/2014/01/24/new-street-fighter-7-inch-figures-capotoys-112108

Great catches @m5jagdragonpanzeriv! those unifive look awesome. Cell and Scouter Vegeta are very detailed. I've looked for the Yamcha but haven't been able to find a fair price for it.

Great job man! Mecha Frieza looks awesome! and I have to agree with @aussiedcfan suggestion. I would love to see a custom SHF Yamcha. We're a few days away from NYCC, let's see what new prototypes they show.

Damn! You have a lot more Yamcha figures than me! And those Street Fighter figures! Wow! Do you have every one from the sets? Well I've bought a few Yamchas but I think they seem like a lot because of the unifive posing Yamcha squad lol and the way I distributed all the figures for the picture I'm glad you liked the SF figures and to answer your question, no lol; from the Play Arts Kai, I' missing Sakura; from Sota I' missing a lot, but I' only interested on finding Bison and Fei Long for a decent price. The Kidrobot I' missing a lot too. And I still need to hunt down many Ken Masters figures/ statues

Very nice. I used to have the entire SOTA Street Fighter collection but ended up selling them all except for Ryu and Ken. Branjita will appreciate that Yamcha collection. And that Jakks Yamcha custom is one of the best I have seen Thanks man! The Sota figures are one of my favorite lines. It's really hard to come by one of these figures for a decent price unless is loose and missing accesories. Why did you sell them? I could never ger rid of these lol Thanks for the compliment on my custom Yamcha too

Hi guys I haven´t created a thread for my collection on this forum, so I thought of taking updated pictures and post them here. As you can see I don´t have that many DBZ stuff, since the SH Figuarts were the ones that got me interested again in collecting DBZ. But it´s been great trying to hunt down figures that could scale with this awesome figures and hopefully the line will remain active for a long time. There are a few figures that are not pictured here like Jakks Battle damaged Tien and a small Gohan figure. Revoltech Woody is not pictured either but you´ve seen him on my other posts. As you will see I´m a big Street Fighter fan too lol Well here´s my collection: Main DBZ figures. Yamcha Play Arts Kai Street Fighter Sota Street Fighter Ken Masters Collection KidRobot Street Fighter Playmates Classic TMNT

Unifive Nappa will look just fine next to the Figuarts that are in smaller scale (Future Trunks, Frieza, Piccolo, and Cell) However, he will be too small next to the bigger scaled Figuarts (Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Krillin). juanjorman, nice Yamcha collection. That's the first I've seen of your Saiyan Saga custom. Looks good! As for a Yamcha that could scale with the Figuarts, I was thinking the new Scultures one might that will be released, but he's posed. Thanks Adam, the custom Saiyan Saga Yamcha turned out quite decent. The only one I did not finish is the Taitans Yamcha one. I will be posting pics of my collection soon. The Scultures Yamcha looks good, although I'm not sure about his size and if he could scale the SH Figuarts. He's using his DB attire so that's an issue

What is the best scaled Yamcha figure with Figuarts? Does one even exist? Hey man. Well I took this picture for you to see that there´s no Yamcha figure so far that can match the scale of SH Figuarts. The Jakks Mystic Gohan which is the one I used for my custom Cell Saga Yamcha is too small. The AB Yamcha is the same scale as Jakks Gohan, so they´re a bit Taller than SHF Trunks but fall way short next to SHF Goku. Yamcha´s taller than Goku so yeah... they have to make him. If Labs Yamcha doesn´t do the trick, due to him being too tall and he´s in his regular DB attire. HSCF Yamcha is pretty small and well the rest are just for reference lol. Hope this helps!
