Jerry hasn't said anything about the 1/4 Akuma revisit being cancelled, as of now.
So I guess the expected shipping date for Ryu revisit and E.Honda is 2016.

Yeah man, the turnaround on these are really long.

I wish 12 months was the ceiling.

You'd think with up to 4 P/Os per year (on 1/4 SF for example) you'd see a staggered release of those P/Os getting delivered 12-16 months later.

But it's still just ONE per year (if that). So if you have 4 or 5 on p/o it's going to be like at least four years to get them lol.

Now that Dhalsim is in hand we'll have to see how long it takes to deliver the next one. That ought to give us a good idea of the delivery schedule since going to the new ordering system (I.E: Everything after Alex).

He said it's happening but there's a "twist". Who knows what that means...

If my memory serves, I believe three (Balrog, Gouken and Ryu) are at two different factories. Not sure of the actual breakdown of who's where. Not sure where the fourth (Honda) is.

The fact that there are two factories means it's highly likely that we see TWO releases this year, with a chance of three (although that has never happened!). I can almost guarantee that Honda gets pushed to 2016.

Last word on Ryu was that he was ahead of Gouken (in terms of release date) even though Ryu's preorder was later. Ryu is a much simpler design compared to Gouken, so that may make his production smoother.

All (educated?) guesses of course.

I hope it doesn't mean that it's a fully sculpted statue (ie. action pose like Vega revisit). I would prefer the mixed media format. I hope the twist is a southpaw version or P2 facing stance.

If this was the case, I wouldn't mind getting the Ryu first. Still hoping for some news on that Ken revisit though!

I think Ryu was expedited by Capcom if I remember right.

That would certainly be my favourite type of twist!

I agree I would like some news on a Ken revisit.

Really? Then it is even stranger to me then, that the third head is not SFV...

You would think that the first statue for the SFV line would be Ryu.

But since we are getting the Ryu revist, maybe they will start with a Ken for SFV?
