Since the other thread regarding this piece is a Poll, I thought I would begin a new thread for further discussion and production pics as they arrive.
The first PCS Akuma statue sculpted by Jerry himself has long been considered a grail and sells for thousands. Those who missed out have been longing for another full size statue. We know a 1/4 revisit is coming but we all know that the piece to own will be this one.
Akuma will be the first Street Fighter character to enter PCS 1/3 scale category and I believe will be most anticipated Street Fighter release by far.
And with the recent 1/3 Scorpion SOLD OUT in a staggering 9 minutes....You should BELIVE THE HYPE for this one.
On a serious note, in that photo, I unstitched the Gi jacket so I could have a statue more like Shin.
It s not removable.
That's the main advantage Shin has as a statue - the fact that you can see all the detailed anatomy and crazy muscles that Jerry sculpted.
I think this time around Jerry will make it possible to remove the Gi jacket.
And I would hope he will paint the Kanji directly on his back (as well as the Gi Jacket if that's how you want to display him).

This Gouki 1/3 will be mine ^^.
I love the stand, the sculpt. When the 1/4 Akuma has been released I don't buy it because the sculpt is not pretty (the face is very bad ) now I regret this. But like the first Ryu happy for a revisit version. Since Sagat the best sculpt made by PCS has been released , the Sculptor are most better and the next released are all beautifull. I begin with Sagat in 2013 and now I will buy all new Street Fighter statue released. I just hope Ken and Evil Ryu will be revesited.
