Hey,
Does anybody know the estimated release dates for the Street Fighter Revoltechs?
I have not been able to see pre-orders yet, and we have seen finished prototypes before we saw the announcement of the current upcoming figs.

They should be coming out in October. Ryu and the girl with the claw should be out 10/01 and Chun Li and Hiko should be out 11/01. But I agree, the lack of pre orders is a little worrying, hopefully they come through and we see the preorders soon.

Hopefully waves 1 and 2 will be highly successfull and Kayodo will end up releasing other great characters like Blanka, Blarog, Dhalsin, Honda, and so on

Well they've already got Zangief lined up for Wave 3, along with a new SFO original female character. The SFO game also has Guile in it now so I think he'll probably show up for the 4th release. Unfortunately, it looks like the characters are coming around kind of slowly... but I also think you can get Batsu from Rival Schools and Cyborg 009 (I don't know why) in the game so hopefully we'll get figures of them. I really would like to see Sagat, Dan, Vega (dictator), Elena and Hugo. Also, I really, really, really would love an Akira from Rival Schools (no helmet version), heck I hope this line expands to include Dark Stalkers too.

I hope they expand this line into non Mouse games, I really wouldn't mind more of the SF2 castand maybe some of the Darkstalkers. Blanka would suit Revoltech very well.

Pre Orders are open for the first two sets from the Hong Kong sellers on Ebay, so we'll probably see them in the regular shops sometime this week.

Did anyone pick them up yet? Love them? Only okay?
I saw Ryu & Claw girl today, but decided against buying as they are REALLY small in stature so I thought I'd get a few opinions here first.
They are waaay smaller than regular Revoltech, also Ryu's fists are bigger than his head; I'm not exaggerating, they really are that big. I guess easier to make the other figures in scale; I'm guessing Zangief will be regular sized?

It's allready released But IMHO it's not good . . . especially the upcoming Zangief . . . man talk about ugly.  Don't get me wrong i'm a revo lover . . . but i also know Good or Bad. And Revo Street Fighter Online? Is not good . . . But if you about to buy it anyway i'd suggest buy the girls . . like Chun Li and the claw girl. Coz the girls are far much better than the boys. ow yeah this one is coming with zangief  |

Alright, finally got Ryu today! And while he is small, he's still alot of fun and I enjoyed recreating many of his classic poses from the series.
For those of you who have yet to see them, the SF Revoltechs are small, like he-was-just-a-hair-bigger-than-my-Eva-Mini-Revos tiny. Also his Hadoken accessory looks puny and weak, like Sakura's standard hadoken when you don't press the button repeatedly. Very sad.
I do like the sculpt though, and in my opinion, it looks better in person than in the promo photos. The details are nice, and he comes with a pair of open hands, a pair of fists and a pair of Hadoken throwing hands.
Some may argue that the size isn't worth the price, but I think it's fair if you take into consideration that they ARE about $3 cheaper than the regular Revo's which are pretty small, too. Guile should be up after Zangief, I just really hope the stupid new characters don't hamper the eventual release of all the REAL SF characters. I need a good Q, Elena, and R. Mika! (Any other Capcom fighters to go with these guys would be great, too!)

Now, I'm not completely sure about the legitimacy of this Ken figure. Is he a custom? I can't tell. The picture is from Revoltech Express. Size issues aside, if this is the Ken Revoltech, I'll pick him up. He looks good. Was never too happy with any of the SOTA attempts. Whilst great, they didn't look like him that much.  |

@faiz. Zangief is not really that ugly bro.. He's just disappointingly..err.. short. --- Alright Ken Master! He looks legit to me but the question is Will he have the same puny haduken?Hope they include dragon rising punch as accesories instead.  |

Ahahahaha. yah, i really really try not notice and criticize zangief's loose briefs (again) with his matching spreading legs.. But his size is a serious disappointment besides all of that. i hope he won't be the butt of the joke for other SFO revos.  (slightly OT) Seriously, how come they manage to make this guy from HNK a bit bigger than the leading/standard characters..and not do the same with Zangief.  LOL. maybe because its a different line ;D |

Are you sure Zangief will be the same height as Ryu? I was hoping he was the height of a regular RT. Man, so many Fist of the North Star figures coming out! Buy them now or go broke playing catch up later? |
