Storm has a display up at Capcom Cup with some Alpha characters and the prototypes of Morrigan and Lilith.

That Morigan figure is a total let down.  Everything looks bad, and proportions are crazy. Those hips are so huge, and match no known reference material, especialy not the game.  Look at the size of her neck, then her thigh.  The thigh cuts are also atrocious.  VERY dissapointing. Even her face looks lame.  The last storm female figure that looked good was Chun Li, and that was ten years ago. I gueass Nokoruru was ok.

 

On the flip side, the Dan and Sagat look pretty good. (Sagat also has some crazy proportotions, mostly his head is TINY.)

 

Very sad about the Morrigan.  Bad Sign for other Darkstalkers figures, the females at least.

Is Chun-Li an early sample? Like, pre-articulation cuts? Or is she weaging one of those skin suits?

Is BBTS the only store selling these in the US?  Because the arena figures just jumped to $29.99 on preorders.

BBTS is the exclusive retailer for Storm in the US.

Sounds like Storm needs to diversify.

Really excited for Fatal Fury and KOF characters to pair with my Jada SF. Capcom vs SNK 2 is my favorite fighting game from a gameplay standpoint.

Got Joe some time ago, received Skullomania on Monday. Now, I've fully paid my PO for Karas and... that's, somehow, my one last Storm Collectibles preorder at the moment. Feels weird.

The Street Fighter Alpha Storm Arena line looks to be shaping up. Some pics of Ken were floating around and wow. Sculpt and articulation look great. That teaser of Sagat looks awesome too.  The only downside here in the states is that BBTS is the only official carrier of this line?  I don’t like it when it’s practically exclusive to one store.

Alpha Sagat preorders up on BBTS. 37.99. A good price. No pics of accessories though. He looks massive.  I do appreciate the difference in styles with Jada too. This one looks closer to his in game Alpha where he is ripped and huge. The Jada figure looks closer to his in game look in the original SF2. Tall and more lean.

I am Player 1 & 2 all-in on Jada, but man, Arena is looking goooooooooood. 

That's the Ken look I want!

I suggest you get who you want from Storm Arena while prices are still reasonable. Also, Storm Arena body for Ken has more range than Jada Ken if that matter to you. I like both so I will continue collecting both lines.
