SOTA's 10th Anniversary Special: 18" Ryu PF mixed media

Update 2/4/11! Paint sample photos in post 404!

Update 10/29/10! Illuminated base photos in post 333!


You heard it right, folks. SOTA is turning 10 years old this year! To celebrate, we're producing an 18" (1/4 scale) Ryu figure, super high quality and mixed media! I suppose you can call it a premium format figure. This will really be something exclusive, as we're planning a very low edition size of 200 regular, 100 evil.

Since the project is still in developmental stages, the sculpt hasn't been approved yet. But I can show you guys Long Vo's art that this will be based off:





*WIP photos, as of 4/28/10*





Prototype photos!


It's going to be legen...

wait for it...

WHAT!?! OMG!! I can't wait to see this. Does SOTA have the rights to do all the characters in 1/4 scale, mixed media, or is this a special arrangement for the 10th anniversary? I wonder how this will affect the Pop Culture Shock line/collectibility? I certainly hope the quality in the sculpt and materials are there.

if this matches with the popculture 1/4 statues, I might get this instead of having to shell out $1000 for the original ryu from PCS.......

Not abandoning the 1/6 scale, so rest assured.

We certainly do. If Ryu generates enough interest, we might consider pursuing other characters. But for now, it'll be just him.

Yea Im sure they are counting on it lol. I can see it now, first 3 statues will be Ryu, Shin Akuma, and Mecha Gief.... Vega and Cammy not so much lol

Healthy competition is typically good for the consumer
