Not yet. According to Fenix, Ryu won't be going up for Pre-order, he'll just be up for sale. That way he can ship out within' 4-5 days after purchase! I'm hoping for an announcement on this next week!

I think PrototypeZ is trying to make sure all Sagats arrive to either Ed or the buyers before shipping Ryu though. Probably to make sure there aren't any broken pieces, ect.

With how solid it is and how many pieces it's in I can't imagine there being any broken Sagats unless that box gets murdered or something. Even the flames.

No, flames are definitely a concern. I'm actually amazed mine didn't break. They're wrapped in styrofoam, but didn't seem the best way to secure them. In all honestly my only corcerns was the Base and the Flames. The rest of the kit seemed rather secure with the bubble wrap/foam setup.

Well a fully put together kit will obviously be packaged in heavy duty styrofoam. Erick got the protos painted by Ed and shipped back to his studios just fine so I'm sure Ed knows what he's doing when mailing out kits as well.

That's what I was thinking as well. I think Sagat is in good hands. The wait is a killer, though!

Pics or you're lying!

Actually, I'm just jealous. Congrats.

So are you going to paint it yourself or find someone to do it? Is it balanced in such a way that you could assemble everything on the base and it would stand on it's own? (Assuming you didn't push it over, of course).

Haha no. Doesn't work like that. I'd be rocking my unpainted one right now if you could do that. Maybe if it had bigger grooves to hold the pieces in place. And there's no way the arms would stay on with that method either.
