Cody would be awesome. Ever since I played the first Final Fight Cody's had the physique I wish I had. Alpha version was awesome too.

Not a good design.

1) I understand why they might have changed his skin tone to differentiate him from Birdie, but I think the darker tone worked much better to contrast the white outfit.

Now it's just pale skin on a white outfit, doesn't look good.

2) I know it's common to do a big ugly brute, but man this guy is ugly. I think that's his theme though, given he's like a monster. It just feels so generic for the brute to be appalling to look at.

In contrast, Potemkin from the Guilty Gear series is a brute type that actually deviates from the typical ugly brute appearance.

Street Fighter proportions are known for being over exaggerated, but this is so exaggerated that it looks atrocious. I think just his extreme height alone would have been an awesome look without the extreme bulk.

His head is so small in comparison to the body, it's so weird and not in a good way.


3) Gameplay looks OK from what I've seen in the trailer. I've analyzed it at least 20 times and he does have some intriguing stuff. Some of the animations look pretty bad though.

The Critical Art and gun punch attack in particular look off. He's hitting air instead of actually hitting Ed.

Then go back to 1997-1999 and watch SF3 get torn to shreds for being different from SF2.

It's a vicious cycle guys.
Never said he was. Just really funny you want something like this that will collect dust to be made before other long awaited characters. :

Honestly, they should have just done Haggar. Not a fan of the character design at all. Would not buy a statue of him.

If Abigail does get sculpted in 1/4 scale, like to pair him up with Poison.

I've actually been thinking the opposite, SFV newcomers designs are top notch for me, much better than SF4's.
Each one of them screams personality, and I really don't get the FANG hate, he's awesome, funny and different.
Same for Abigail, you will be controlling half of the game screen with your pad, how is that not awesome?

Really, they could release a game with just Ryu and Akuma variants and I swear people would be happy with it
