Dhalsim is, imo, easily the best figure yet, assuming he can move like Fei Long. I'm very impressed with the head sculpts, as they haven't been up to par with the rest of the figures in the past.
I'm getting two Dhalsims right away. One for the intended purpose, and one to use those limbs for Mr. Fantastic.
Im skipping bison but getting Dhal
Found a random single Ken at Target today. No other case mates, if he had any. I did not get a chance to open and review him yet, but he seems pretty similar to Ryu. Maybe a little more consistent in quality.
EDIT: opened the figure. No quality issues in my copy. The skin tone seems more evenly shaded and the hair seems less likely to have paint come off than the Ryu figure. I paid full price, and I am 100% satisfied with this purchase. No notes.
As everyone else has said, other companies could stand to learn from what Jada is doing. I’m anticipating this Street Fighter line is toyline of the year for 2024.
I also got a Ken yesterday. First time I've seen any sign of SF restocks in my area of CT since before Christmas.
This was the same for me, today I found one Ken in Target where the collectibles are shelved. I decided to go ahead and cancel my BBTS pre-order.
Is the belt on Ken sculpted in black, or is it white and then painted like Ryu's belt?

M. Bison and Dhalsim up for pre order on Amazon.
Really like the look of Bison.
We're they actually available and (temporarily) sold out? Or are these just placeholders?
I have a Pile of Loot which is approaching ready to ship status (c'mon NECA Elkhorn...arrive!). I have a Ken on preorder which I assume will be fulfilled at some point, but I'm not holding up my Pile for him.
Dhalsim is not there at all, though I found M. Bison. Don't care about the big red guy... just want my stretchy mystic fighting guru.
I've not seen Ken available at normal price from Amazon yet either and been checking daily.
Did they actually go live on Amazon at all? BBTS and EE haven’t put any preorders up for them either.
I found a purchase-now listing on Amazon UK for Dhalsim that says “ships in 3-7 months”… I think I’ll wait a little while and try to nab all three of wave 2 when there are reliable “in stock” listings though
Got a link for that Dhalsim? I can see a ‘currently unavailable’ but nothing I could order.
I did put an order in for Bison yesterday that’s months off, as I suspect this series is going to be hard to find in the UK. I regret missing all the £22 listings on Star Action Figures.
