Kinetiquettes - Battle of the Brothers

[Kinetiquettes]

You voted and we are executing!

We are super excited to reveal the Battle of the Brothers dioramas, first of which will be released later this year.

We are working with a very talented sculptor to make this line happen. Let us know who you would like to see first in this line.

Note that this is a rough concept and proportions/poses will be tweaked along the way.

Majestic! Great concept!

[dao2]

looks cool but I'm not interested in this one, bit tired of these guys and they're not my favorites to begin with :(

[HairyAsHell]

This is just one of the 3 concepts releasing this year ;)

[Askani81]

Woah! I never expected such a concept. Great start guys!

[DeadGhostKnight]

You deffo have my interest now, i hate the Evil Ryu & Oni designs but i loved the style and energy that was in the ER vs Oni sculpt.

So yeah give me Ryu & Ken in 1/6 in super dynamic poses and then the option to mash them up with Gouki and display them how i want and i'll be throwing my money your way!

[Sharkey]

Wow this is a sweet design!

Can't wait to see what other licenses you guys get to work with in the future!

[gomur]

Can I get a Chun Li & Cammy vs Juri & Crimson Viper? Thanks in advance. :drooling:

[TethMau74]

:thinking:Hmm....I think this qualifies as "Battle of the Brothers":

[Joppula]

Hugo vs Zangief vs T.Hawk vs Alex = GIANT ATTACK DIO!

[ZenLogikos]

Not a fan of the anime and it's inspiration for anything other than one-on-one battles, but this concept looks great!

Love your take on Street Fighter.

Muahahahaha :D

[Leooo]

Awesome !!! :eek:

[BornFreeSF]

This whole this is pretty hype.

I like Ken - looks like his focus attack. Very cool.

But Gouki/Akuma in his kata pose has me watering at the mouth...

.

Actually Ken's pose is inspired from his Ultra 2. Although his focus attack also fits nicely with this concept... hmmmm

[ZenLogikos]

I feel like Gouken should be more defensive, perhaps his Kongoshin (I mentioned before), but that pose would look perhaps too similar to Gouki's, and limit interchangeability. :thinking:

Don't mind me. Just thinking out loud. I love it as is.

[rgm501]

not feeling this one, not a fan of dioramas.
i would like to see you guys do some museum poses, maybe with some characters that haven't been done by some of the other companies.

cody, rolento, adon, sean, dudley, c'mon!

i have to admit, one thing you won't see us doing is museum/hero/standing poses. It goes against our style and studio name itself :p

But we are for sure going to be doing characters that are not getting enough love. Stay tuned :)

And this is why I love you guys. Can't wait to see you guys do something outside of the fighting games (just not a fg guy myself, but still love looking at your work on these!)

[BornFreeSF]

Are you sure Sharkey? :laugh:

Nice thought. But yeah I see the dilemma when you put Akuma v Gouken.

There's is obviously an attacking animation to the Kongoshin. I don't know if it would work with Akuma blocking....maybe.

http://static.eclypsia.com/public/upload/cke/Guides/Street%20Fighter%20IV/Gouken/Gouken-Contre.jpg

I don't recognise Gouken's current move. It looks like it's inspired by his standing heavy kick with the hands placed to block Ryu and Ken perhaps? Or maybe I missed something.

Overall I think it looks pretty cool though. It's an exciting concept and something fresh.

My Asura's Wrath by Tsume is still one of my favorite pieces ever.

That's the beauty of Kinetiquettes for me; much larger than your standard dioramas, at 1:6, and you don't even need to display them as a diorama if you don't want to. But yeah, action-only for these guys, so...

The Kongoshin would work well for Ryu/Ken since both arms could be blocking...but then Akuma should change. Maybe Akuma's teleporting, one-foot stance? But I know you want his kata stance, which looks great. :thinking:

Gouken's current kick doesn't look game related to me. I just assumed it fit the scenario of training Ryu/Ken and this diorama.

Still trying to scrape together extra funds to acquire that... :)

We have thought of both the parry poses but wouldn't work with what we have in mind for the others. Plus it was done before.

Gouken's kick was pretty much taken from his ex tatsumaki starting frames :)

I'm having a similar dilemma in that I don't have time to learn MKX....yet, they are releasing the Predator soon... :thinking:

I enjoyed the Asura x Street Fighter DLC. I would welcome him as a character.

They already established at the end of the DLC that his descendant (who looks identical - apart from the arms) is within the Street Fighter Universe with Chun.

Awww the arms are what make him even more awesome. Without them I would probably pass.

But honestly I would just be up for buying mroe Asura's Wrath sweet dios!

Well his arms don't come out until he's angry (your avatar has two arms).

So, who knows?

I just know he's portrayed as a regular human being with a family at the end of the DLC. in the Street Fighter universe.

I'm not sure if it's his descendent or he's immortal...I forget.

He is a god/demi-god so yea he is immortal. Also the Indian philosophy of rebirth probably plays into it too.

But yea I know it is when he is angry, but when in the heat of combat he is always angry, that is why I was saying have the arms out. But really as long as it is a sweet dio I can be swayed, just the arms really makes it stand out and be unique compared to normal people with 2 arms.

[EnShinNoi]

I'm interested in Ryu and Ken. Especially if they're younger/Alpha versions.

Oops. I thought we were talking about you playing the game!

You said you weren't a fighting game guy.

I was joking that if you played the Street Fighter Asura DLC, you were in fact a little bit of a fighting game guy :laugh:

The dio is great as is for me. They'd need the Asura license to recreate that DLC in a dio.

Haha, I thought you were talking about the SF dlc in Asura's Wrath where you could fight Ryu. I had no idea that he had been adopted into the SF game.

I love the dio as is as well. I was meaning that I would love to see more dios from that game. There were really cool designs in there that I would love to have displayed.

Oh, he hasn't been adopted into the game (at least, not yet). I just meant that if you played that DLC in Asura's Wrath where you fight Ryu you are in fact a Fighting Game guy. I was just joking around.

But I meant the ending of that DLC shows modern day and Asura and Chun Li in the same world. Which Capcom didn't have to do, but they did...

[Leooo]

That is exactly the reason why I love your pieces of art ! :thumbs2:

For a fighting game like Street Fighter, the statues have to be in dynamic action pose, in combat mode ! :jedidual:

[Grifterr]

This is just one of the 3 concepts releasing this year ;)

2 more concepts as in more street fighter ones?, yes please!

[Kinetiquettes]

Can I get a Chun Li & Cammy vs Juri & Crimson Viper? Thanks in advance. :drooling:

Amazing things come to those who wait :D

Hugo vs Zangief vs T.Hawk vs Alex = GIANT ATTACK DIO!
Hugo and Alex are coming :)

I'm interested in Ryu and Ken. Especially if they're younger/Alpha versions.
ALpha versions...YES alternate heads with Ryu red headband and Ken shorthair...why not!

[HiTMAN]

Ken looks awesome, is this a mix of traditional and digital sculpt?

[Swordsman]

there will be four character.

Ryu, Ken, Gouki and Gouken.

[Kinetiquettes]

Ken looks awesome, is this a mix of traditional and digital sculpt?

This is a purely old fashioned traditional sculpt :)

[rhy]

I'm diggin' this!

[ZenLogikos]

Really excited for this. What type of time frame are we looking at with this? I assume all four characters will be sold separately? How long between pre-orders?

Also, do you think you will sell the third Evil Ryu print separately?

And, I can't find it at the moment, but am I crazy - didn't you guys tease a mature, comic-inspired take on TMNT? Is that license a go?

Should I create an "Ask Kinetiquettes", and "Kinetiquettes General Discussion" thread?

Love Thiago's style! He's hitting the nail on the head! Alpha is my favorite..will be jumping on these for sure :)

[Askani81]

[Jokerbone]

Sick! Can't wait

[SONICobra]

now that's a great looking ken

[strife87]

Looks good, battle of the brothers is a neat concept

[Remember Me?]

now that's a great looking ken

Might be the best looking Ken statue out there.

[Gyro Zeppeli]

That Ken looks amazing. I love how dynamic that pose is.

[davide87ita]

when will be possible to preorder ken and when will be release?

[dao2]

they just showed ken :<

[Gyro Zeppeli]

I'm hoping more of these are made. Akuma and Ryu are among my least favorite SF characters so I can't see myself bothering with this , but there is a lot of potential for it as a line in general.

Imagine if characters part of a different set could also be mixed and matched and still work out. It could be really awesome. Having say four or five of these could lead to all sorts of unique displays.

[Kinetiquettes]

Glad you guys like him. Wait till you see the whole statue with the finished base :D

when will be possible to preorder ken and when will be release?

We are expecting to start pre-order in November. Stay tuned for more info.

[TheLastMan]

The concept on this is amazing. Really hoping to see da Streetfighter ladies get a similar treatment: Chun Li, Juri, Cammy. C-Viper and Rose would be great too. And can't leave out Ibuki and Sakura. Yeah, just do one with ALL of them. :p

Since we have seen so many Ryu's throwing fireballs, this diorama should perhaps have him getting ready to perform a dragon punch.

[gogo13]

I'm wondering you have switch out arms and legs to have different display option.

Is it possible to have a switch out head. maybe battle damage or a different facial display.. It may be difficult cause some of the characters are in such a dynamic pose. Just a thought maybe for a future piece .

Thank you.. .. This give it more display options..
You guys put alot of thought into it.

It definitely shows with Evil Ryu. You Kill it. Awesome statue

I look forward to seeing the other sculpts...Akuma, RYU and Gouken

Most likely around the same price as our Oni Akuma.

[rebirthz]

I realise that the sculpt of this ken is much much cleaner than evil ryu. Was evil ryu intentionally sculpted in a rougher way? Like a artistic direction?

[Kinetiquettes]

Yes, its a different sculptor hence the style is different. Also, we wanted to improve the level of finish for our newer sculpts. Expect to see higher level of finish for our future sculpts as well :)

[High Lord Apocalypse]

Ken is now close to PO so will be be seeing the next part of the diorama soon?

[gogo13]

Do you know the Edition size world wide for Ken?

[Kinetiquettes]

Ken is now close to PO so will be be seeing the next part of the diorama soon?

We will show something early next year. :)

Do you know the Edition size world wide for Ken?

Not finalized yet but definitely not more than 500.

[gogo13]

An edition of size of 500 or less is good. Ken is a popular street fighter character. It gives collectors a chance to own one and production size is still relatively small.

[rome_325]

Just read the newsletter. So there's an EX head (short hair) that will only be available on your site? Anyway you can post a pic of the short hair head? Thanks.

Although do note that if you order on our website, you will receive the exclusive short hair option for Ken. Not to mention that you will also get have the chance for low edition numbers, special discounts or first preorder access for future purchases in this Battle of the Brother line.

[EnShinNoi]

If short-hair Ken is the exclusive, red-band Ryu will also be the exclusive.

If white-band Ryu (or no no-band) was the exclusive, that would make little sense.

[ZenLogikos]

Ex head would get me to order direct again. Went with BBTS for Oni after getting Evil Ryu direct.

Yes. That will probably how it will be for Ryu. :)

Thanks for your support !

[gogo13]

Do you know how many will be exclusives which will be direct purchase from you... ..?

Will the exclusive be part of the 500. or maybe 150 to 200 exclusive direct from you and maybe 300 to 350 regular worldwide.

I'm definitely ordering an exclusive.!

Whatever is sold on our site will be receiving the exclusive hair. Probably 200 will be allocated to our website.

Just to clarify... the exclusive is a swap out short hair. NOT a whole new head for Ken. Our Ken was always designed to have one head from the very beginning.

I am sorry, but that sounds a bit cheap for an exclusive. At least give us (collectors) a whole head instead of "Change of hair". I have supported Kinetiquettes from the beginning and if this is going to be the route for exclusive, then you lost me as a customer.

[dao2]

not a problem for me... head can leave an obvious seam, changing the hair is a lot easier and won't leave a visible seam

[gogo13]

The way they sculpted Evil Ryu the hair was separate and head was attached to the body. I think this is also the way they design Ken. A swappable hair piece makes sense no seam. Good point Dao2.

I could understand "Remember Me". Collectors want the most out of an exclusive.

For an Exclusive for Collectors, maybe add premium art print or something else swappable without making a major redesign..

Maybe make one of Ken's fist radiate like Oni.. After Ken throws his kick he ready to launch a punch. It could be either arms. It makes more sense his left cause its clinch already and Body dynamic wise. Right leg flying kick and then left punch ( swappable radiating fist)

Another possible variant different color fighting glove. Red or black color.

Another possible variant is maybe under Ken knee make a explosion attachment to statue. So its different from just the original.. Ken breaks the statue and by his knee is a explosion piece.


These are only some raw ideas. Adding something else will make the exclusive really special and maybe the toughest collector happy.

To me the hair piece is good enough as an exclusive. As a collector to say WOW. Maybe add another variant to make the exclusive more interesting ,fun and different from the regular version. Collectors will have to pay a lot more for shipping to get the exclusive. The expectation of collector will also be higher for an exclusive.

Maybe charge a little more for the exclusive but make it worth it.
Something different from the regular makes it fun for us Collectors.

The Ken statue already is awesome. Its just seeing if there any way to make an exclusive even better..

I'm still ordering exclusive Ken.. Great Job Kinetiquettes...!

[HairyAsHell]

I am sorry, but that sounds a bit cheap for an exclusive. At least give us (collectors) a whole head instead of "Change of hair". I have supported Kinetiquettes from the beginning and if this is going to be the route for exclusive, then you lost me as a customer.

Thanks for the input. But do note, we are not charging extra for this option. It's just a bonus for those who support us directly. KEN was always designed to be alpha ken. More importantly, we definitely didn't want a seamline under his neck for the sake of this option. Plus, if we didnt give this as an extra incentive, i dont think anyone would complain why there is no exclusive version.

[Kinetiquettes]

The way they sculpted Evil Ryu the hair was separate and head was attached to the body. I think this is also the way they design Ken. A swappable hair piece makes sense no seam. Good point Dao2.

I could understand "Remember Me". Collectors want the most out of an exclusive.

Thanks for the suggestions and your support. We understand that people want more for getting directly from us. However, we also dont want those who are not getting directly from us, feeling that the one without the short hair is of lower value. We are not charging more for this extra short hair option. Its an added bonus.

Initially we didnt even like the idea of an exclusive version. However a few collectors have suggested the short hair version being exclusive to our website as an incentive for direct support. Yes, we could potentially add more incentives. But again, those who order directly from us usually gets more than just a short hair swap. They will also get discounts on future releases on this line and possibly first pre-order opportunity before everyone else.

Hope that clarifies things.

[gogo13]

Thank you for clarifying things...

As collectors we assume the word Exclusive to mean something else....Bonus is a better word.

Its A noble thing to try and be fair and not make collectors feel left out.

Its just a Bonus if we order direct from you we get Ken's short hair. and other benefits.

I can't wait to order Ken direct from your website for the added Bonuses..

Thank you Kinetiquettes for your fast and Very Reasonable responses..!:thumbs2:

[EnShinNoi]

I think Kinetiquettes is taking a good approach. The entire statue ES is low enough that an exclusive is not even necessary. It's already exclusive enough.

Besides, switching between Alpha and post-Alpha hair is huge. When you consider the diorama, a simple swap of hair will change the time period and subsequently, overall feel. It creates so many more possible mix-ups between the four characters.

[Kinetiquettes]

Time to tease with some early WIP :D
http://www.kinetiquettes.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/BoBRyuTeaser.jpg

[ZenLogikos]

Interesting...so the pose has changed?

[Kinetiquettes]

Interesting...so the pose has changed?

Yes we updated the pose to better suite the overall diorama and his left arm will be swapable :)

[nongshim]

Can we get another update on Ryu?

[khrisc]

what happened to this? so sad this piece has been overtaken by other projects like the the 1/4 one..would be happy if Kinetiquettes can focus on finishing a set first before moving on to a new one like the femme fatales.

[Kinetiquettes]

Sorry for the long wait guys. We definitely want to finish the line. Just that the sculptor Thiago has been very very busy so progress has been slow. But rest assured, we will finish the line by next year. Ryu updates coming very soon :)

[yeek]

I agree, finishing projects should definitely be a priority. Otherwise there's just going to be one here and one there and nothing will be completed.

[HiTMAN]

I’m sure they have multiple artists working on various projects and it really comes down to the artists themselves who dictate the rate of completion.

What’s starting to concern me more is the execution of these dioramas. Seeing the initial concept art is nice and all but it differs from seeing the complete diorama. I’m getting a sense that each character is a separate diorama as oppose to a single multi character diorama.

Looking at Ken, the statue turned out great, awesome pose, great sculpt and paint application. The only downside I see is the footprint, it’s massive and seems a little excessive in my opinion. I can’t imagine how big the entire diorama will turn out.

As a side note, I was really pumped for DMC and Thundercats but after seeing them I got overwhelmed by the sheer size. Don’t get me wrong I think they look epic and I really like the story being portrayed. But honestly who has the room to display these massive dioramas? I realize there is the option to display them separately but that sort of defeats the purpose behind the whole concept.

Not to mention price being another factor, the DMC diorama was a lot to drop at once. It probably would have been wiser to split up, have a gap in between. Perhaps release as two separate VS dioramas as they should be, then push for sales through incentives and promotions.

In my opinion there should be a price cap depending on the number of characters. For example a two character 1/6 diorama should not exceed more than $650 +/- taking the character size in consideration. Looking at Thundercats, I can’t fathom it falling anywhere near that, but likely around $1200+.

Things always change from initial concept, but always for the better. The initial concepts are just inspirations but in terms of 3d execution, the sculpt has to not only look good from every angle, they have to go well with each other. The ultimate goal is to make them connectible and yet work well as standalone as well (to address concerns of footprint). That is why you will see how much Ryu's pose has changed since the concept and why we have added interchangeable options. Nothing is set in stone, neither should they be when it comes to executing any artwork.

As for the price concerns, we hear you. This is why we are considering having multiple purchase options. But price is really dictated by our costs. Our priority is quality and in order to do that, we have to maintain a certain price range per character as we have to do QC and iteration for each character. Not to mention, also ensure the project is delivered within a year of pre-order date.

Appreciate the feedback

[davide87ita]

Is possible to see an updated concept of the full diorama with update pose of characters?

[~WindzStriker~]

I have the Ken Master already.

I am looking to complete the whole line, please ensure their base can really connect together as proposed earlier, looking forward to this. :muahaha:

[ZenLogikos]

Kinetiquettes,

You recently addressed pricing, but I have a related question. I'm still actually patiently awaiting my Ken from BBTS, but I was thinking about his price, related to the other three parts of this diorama. Ken's was the most detailed in pose, it seems, as well as having the most intricate/large base. Would this help contribute to the other three pieces costing less than Ken? I know this is early for Akuma and Gouken, but it appears that Ryu is fairly straightforward.

This is no knock on the other three. I think the diorama is fantastic. It just seems like the Ken portion would be the highest priced.

Thanks!

You are half correct :). The pricing really does depends on how the dioramas turn out but the details and size of each base is still TBD as we actually get down to sculpting them. Ryu's base at this time is actually as detailed and intricate as Ken's base since it has the other temple guardian. As mentioned, the concepts are really very loose and open to changes and adaptations in the sculpt stage.

Oh, ok. I didn't know there was going to be another guardian.

So bottom line, you foresee all four pieces probably being around the same price?

[khrisc]

but when can we expect this diorama to be finished? At the rate this is going its gonna be a loooooong time :(

[Kinetiquettes]

Possibly but still TBC

but when can we expect this diorama to be finished? At the rate this is going its gonna be a loooooong time :(

We expect all POs to be out next year with actual shipping dates to be soon after. We had some delays as the sculptor was very busy finishing other projects on his plate.

What a about for a promotion for pre-pre-order ryu lol

[Balthazar]

From a marketing perspective this was a bad idea. Either you are buying both or Ryu is ruined. Unfortunately he is not exposable by himself

[ZenLogikos]

This diorama includes four characters. Ken, Ryu, Gouken, Gouki. There are multiple ways to connect and display them.

Even if you only buy one, you're still getting a good sized (1:6) action statue.

[dajuice]

When I bought you guys' first piece Evil Ryu, I was very optimistic and excited for your company but after having to wait so long for your next pieces to come out and having so many pre-orders from other companies, I forgot about you guys and lost that enthusiasm. The Evil Ryu is spectacular and I thought it was a foreshadowing of what was even greater things to come. Due to the wait as well as considering the price for a 1/6 scale statue, I cancelled the Oni Akuma. When Ken was displayed, my interest piqued and did a pre-order through BBTS. To this day, this statue is still on pre-order and again I cancelled it due to the wait, price, and my other pre-order that I had to trim off.

Maybe I need to have patience and I need to adhere to the saying that good things come to those who wait. But in the collecting world, there are so many new things coming out every month that draws collectors over to another side. Also there is a precious commodity called time and that it can't be wasted and every second counts. Good luck with your company and maybe by the time I reconsider to buy the Battle of the Brothers dio, they will still be available.

Thanks for your support of our work. I'm sorry to hear that you had to wait so long but usually from the day of PO we ship our statues within 6-9 months. We have shipped all our Kens to our customers and Bbts is the only retailer who haven't picked up their order.

Sometimes there are things that are out of our control and we have to delay preorders from going up. We are now fully focused on getting this diorama out there as we know a lot of fans are waiting for this line. We will do better. Please bear with us.

I unfortunately followed exactly the same procedure, but it's more due to BBTS and not Kinetiquettes. After waiting so long, I didn't grow impatient - I just reanalyzed my collecting desires and my money. I was mainly interested in Gouken and Gouki any way. And ordering direct is likely the way to go. I did that with Evil Ryu, but the last two thru BBTS haven't worked out so well...

[DeadGhostKnight]

While i feel Ken is an outstanding stand alone piece and is only going to be better in the diorama, i can't sya the same for Ryu, he'll look great in the diorama but as a standalone piece.....not so much.

Yeah, im contemplating getting Ken, but its hard to pull the trigger on it, not knowing how the other pieces look.

From kinetiquettes kollectors group

"Oh look! Battle of the Brothers Ryu is done!!! 2 heads (one alpha, one normal), two left arms (one for interaction with Ken and the other for interaction with Gouken/Gouki). Thanks again to Thiago for kicking ass and guess what...he's gonna be working on both Gouken and Gouki at the same time."

They look great together, just think the Ryu looks very awkward without Ken there.

[Kinetiquettes]

Thanks so much for sharing the pics here davide87ita! We really apreciate the help :)

Thiago Provin is doing his absolute best to make sure Battle of Brothers comes out perfect. It's a very special project for us and we promise to deliver the best we can!

[Kinetiquettes]

Finally, after the long wait, Kinetiquettes' BATTLE OF THE BROTHERS line welcomes its second challenger!

We are proud to bring this fan favourite, beloved character from the Street Fighter universe into a dynamic battle pose. Facing his eternal rival, Ken Masters, Ryu is channeling his inner strength to deliver one of his most powerful move, the Shoryuken! Who will emerge victorious in this battle?

Sculpted by the talented Thiago Provin, Ryu pre-orders start December 1st, 11pm Singapore time. Ryu comes with the EX alternate classic head and interchangeable blocking arm that not only goes with Ken but the upcoming Gouken and Gouki (Akuma) as well. Furthermore, those of you who missed out on Ken, we will have extremely limited bundles available on that day as well.
SHIN...SHORYUKEN!

It's definitely a duo display or nothing on this peice.

Ryu is like ' Strike 3... You're outta there!' pose when displayed separately.

[DeadGhostKnight]

Still not working for me at all, the Ken piece is so phenomenal and this just doesn't work at all as a solo piece, even with Ken with it i still think it's awkward.

https://www.kinetiquettes.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/RyuVSKen05.jpg

Proportions on Ryu look odd here too, his hands are huge, i mean i know big hands and feet is the style but these look just huge, SFZ Face sculpt is ok but the SF2 is still not good, neither of them look cool for me.

Thanks for the input. We all have different tastes and preferences. The response has been positive for Ryu after we reworked the head sculpt and no one complained about the pose since we improved it. Sorry we couldnt meet up to your expectations.

Thank you, does the bundle come with the exclusive head piece for Ken as well? I see it in pic but not description.

The exclusives should be for buying direct, so you should be okay. Really like the changes made to Ryu and made me take a liking to it.

Those who purchased Ken in our website are eligible for a special discount. Also, those who order Ryu directly with us will receive an exclusive head portrait with the red bandana!

Yep both would come with the exclusives.

But they are now sold out!

[davi]

A paint preference note, is that I find the interior's of the foo-dogs to be drawing too much attention of the eye away from the figures, and a more muted value/hue to matched the exterior of the foo-dogs could help keep the 'pop' of the stutue where it needs to be, which is the vibrant figures

[ZenLogikos]

Sooooo... what the hell's going on with Gouken and Akuma? Is this 'line' cut short with only Ken and Ryu? I get the sense that Thiago hasn't/can't commit to this project.

[jac1066]

I am very much interested in this line. Any word if Gouken and Akuma are still going to happen?

Sorry your query slipped thru the cracks. This is definitely still on. We put it on hold temporarily. Thiago is coming back to this line this year :)

Awesome, thanks for the update. I may consider purchasing these after all. ;)
