Ahh... Barnes and Noble... I remember when we had one of those near me. Sadly it lost it's lease and closed and now the closest one is like 15 miles away...
I miss Borders and Waldenbooks also.
Actually stopped by a Barnes and Nobles on my way home. They are indeed carrying Jada SF. This store only had Chun Li and no Ryu. But she was V2. Well at least that’s two official retail outlets people can find these at other than your local collector’s store.
I hope Big Bad is actually getting White Gi Ken, it’s still in my Big Bad pre-orders page but the page for the figure itself no longer exist.
Not sure if that means they weren’t supposed to offer the figure or if they weren’t supposed to offer it YET and took the listing down temporarily (happened before with regular Player 1 Chun-Li, they listed her early, took it down, then put it back up.)
Big Bad has sold a lot of “Entertainment Earth Exclusives” before (I have several Pops with EE stickers on them from Big Bad) so it would be weird if this was the one time they were barred from doing so.
Oh well, I only wanted him to put Ryu’s extra head on and pretend it was a clean, heemed gi like he wore in Street Fighter the movie! To hang out with Red Chun-Li, and hopefully a future Blue Guile, and Bison (but with Black costumed Bison’s hat on for some reason!)
Missed white gi Ken on EE, got a dead link when BBTS sent out that email and gave up, and then got an alert that Ken is back in stock today on EE - if you're still looking for him, might be worth checking to see if he's still available. My order went through but it looks like he'll ship a little later than the initial offering (restock?) but I'm not really in a rush, just a nice to have figure for me that'll make the collection feel more complete.
Cammy & Dee Jay preorders up on BigBad, but arrival date shows July 2025?!
I thought 7/2025 is insane and hope that can't be right. I thought they were nearing a Target release. Amiami was being very optimistic and has their date for mid Oct.
My first reaction is Cammy's braids are too visible from a front viewing. They might just be splayed out too much.
Entertainmentearth.com has them for Oct release. Can probably expect to find them in Target stores later this month.
So Guile is staggered for later release.
I'm really tempted to start collecting this line but I have way too many lines I collect as is. Plus, I don't really have a strong attachment to the franchise. I'm impressed with what the company has been able to accomplish.
Like Chunners, Cammy doesn’t skip leg day.
Sheesh. Well, that's a preorder. Faces look better in these promo shots than in displays, at least... Still not a fan of their choice of main expression, but I'll live. Didn't expect her to be so soon.

Mix um in with GI Joe, problem solved!
@blackcomicnerd Steer clear of it. Don’t look at them anymore or any reviews. Going down this rabbit hole is treacherous. If you pick up even just one character your slightly interested in, it could have severe ramifications. Once you start fiddling with one, it will be hard to put it down. Then you’ll start wanting more than one. Maybe one more after that. Turn away now if you don’t want to collect another great figure line. You have been warned.
But go ahead and just buy one to try out………..
I wish these would be easier to pre-order in Canada. I'd rather get them from Amazon (free ship, retail price), Walmart (slightly lower price than retail), or GameStop (15% off with Onyx) - but none are offering pre-orders. Apparently they were Walmart exclusive, but you can't find them on the site to pre-order.
Up here the only options are e-tailers which are a little higher price and $9-$12 in shipping... they are also much later to get these. In some cases, nearly a year up here.
