The listing was there when I did a general search for Jade Street Fighter but I just tried it again and couldn’t find it, I’m suspecting somebody tried to purchase it and they flagged it as an erroneous placeholder that shouldn’t have gone live so suppressed it again. I had a similar thing happen when they had ML Retro card Kingpin go to “in stock” once, I purchased and got charged and then it went to limbo for months because it was a mistake and I had to cancel and get a refund because the stock didn’t exist, I’m assuming this happens more than we realise as they organise listings.
But seeing that all of wave 1 is in stock at 24.99 makes me think wave 2 will be available eventually and not so hard to get, just a bit behind on when US retail have it.
I had a pretty complete set of the Sota figures back in the day, and regret selling it all but the engineering on these Jada figures really fixes a lot of the problems that line had in the ugly feet joints and broken hip balls, as well as adding in new better butterfly shoulders and ball jointed torsos so it’s great to be starting collecting these characters again.
@kailryu Yeah, I bought most of the SOTAs (though never Ken, so be good to fix that) and never felt like replacing them in the interim, but these are too good to pass up.
I now need to sell the old guard on - kinda regretting not doing so a while back, as I bet the bottom has dropped out of the market.
Has Jada mentioned when Dhalsim or Vega(Bison) may be showing up at Target.
I found 3 Kens at Target yesterday, so I was able to compare paint for my one!
I’ve seen Ryu (once), Fei Long (at least one, somewhat consistently), and Ken (a few times recently). Ive still never seen Chun Li.
Has anyone seen Chun Li at a store?
I’ve seen Chunners once in store about a month ago by herself. I’ve seen Ken once in store and that’s when I bought mine. Have not seen Ken since but I guess he is still shipping. I’ve seen Fei Long the most consistently but he never lasts on the shelves long and disappears within a week or so. I have not seen Ryu in months since last year. I’m not sure if he is still shipping to Target. He is currently only sold by third party on Amazon while Chunners and Fei have in stock by Amazon proper. EE has restock of Ryu projected for May. Not sure if Ryu is starting to dry up at normal retail. I’ve also seen Chunners and Fe Long go up in stock at Target.com at least once but, as expected, did not last long. Never seen Ryu go up.
Off topic but I will put it here anyways. Rest In Peace Sensei Akira Toriyama. Thank you for your contributions to the entertainment and imaginations of us kids, big and small, all over the world throughout the years. I salute you with a Kamehameha and Hadouken towards the sky. Rest well sensei.
There are 2 Chun Lis at my local Target, but I haven't seen Ken at all yet.
There are 2 Chun Li's at my Target. I've yet to see Ken.
The same store I found the three Kens at also still has a couple Fei Longs, and one Chun-Li (first time seeing her in store - got mine from BBTS).
Haven't seen Ryu since the one I bought (found one Ryu & one Fei Long, and bought both - wish I'd had options, as one of my Ryu heads has wonky lip paint).
Who else is in Ken's wave? Dhalsim & Vega (Bison)?
I keep checking this thread every time there's a new post hoping optimistically that Dhalsim is finally released and I can start looking. Alas.
They're finally going up for preorder next week.

Email from Jada Next Level says March 18 9am PST on BB and EE for all the west coast collectors.
Finally. Woohoo!!
This has become an auto-preorder line for me. Really hoping they do some of my favorites soon (Blanka and Cammy for sure... maybe a deluxe-y big old E. Honda or Zangief...)
