Thanks for the prompt response. The paint issues is it on both the 1/3 Akuma or just the Omni ? I plan on getting the Classic Akuma 1/3 to pair with my 1/3 Classic RYU.

What do you think about the Evil RYU 1/3 ? I originally wanted to pair the Classic RYU with the Evil RYU 1/3 .

Issue is only on all the 1/3 SHIN
Just Go for the 1/3 Classic AKUMA (more iconic)
My advice: if Ryu is your best character and if you’ve got space go for both! Otherwise just wait for Sagat!! In order to pair him with 1/3 Classic Ryu (iconic battle)

Thanks again buddy. Your insight and feedback is appreciated. I am kinda new to the Street Fighter world, and starting a new statue collection from scratch.

All the Street Fighters took a huge hit on the aftermarket. The seller of these lost a huge amount of $$$$ Same for all the classic Mortal Kombat statues and the 1/3 statues.

It's truly a buyers paradise. Frustrating to see those go for "nothing".

You can see it even on official retailers like Sideshow. These pieces just don't hold much value anymore. Chun Li seems to have retained though. I look on occasion to see if the 1/3 Chun Li is on discount, but I guess there was enough demand for her. Almost all the male statues are heavily discounted though.

Might be that allegedly liquidating inventory out the back door on eBay has helped drive down the prices...

Not to mention all the refunds outstanding have soured MANY in the community still waiting.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

i was lucky enough to get the chun-li 1.3 battle dress version 799 but with tax and shipping i ended up being 934 about the official price. i would have bought the alpha version too since it was about the same price, but couldn't afford both of them at the same time.
