This figure screams cost cutting and time saving. The recent hit or miss nature of their figures in regards to paint and engineering has been super irritating. At least they haven't gone full Mafex where shit falls apart and breaks. I feel like Bandai isn't confident enough to step into a semi-realistic face game. Everything they do is either real life printing or anime. Interested to see what Storm pulls out of their hat, their Chun Li looks pretty good.
Excellent review! I'm glad that they are at least making these characters and hope they make more. Seems they made some really strange choices throughout however. Yeah, that knee is terrible, wow! I hope they're able to correct these issues with the next set of figures. Thanks for sharing.
You might be on to something about the lack of completion in the paint. Along with this recent occurrence, I've noticed on ebay an apparent boom in bootlegs from DBZ, Marvel, and the current batch of street fighter figuarts. Granted this doesn;t correlated precisely with the lackluster releases, but this could reflect inefficient security which ties into the "rush factor" of these releases. The only good news from this is, with the Street fighter bootlegs at least, they are decent enough that some slight joint tightening would make them ideal customizing pieces but that's as far as that goes.
Even though it has some disappointing aspects, i still preordered this figure on Big Bad Toy Store. I just love the look of it and its still a decent figure.
I think you hit the nail in the head with this review: I don't share your sentiment of this line being "not that great", but you make 100% valid points for this figure being kind of a disappointment and the worst in the line. I don't collect Storm Collectibles but I do think they will do a better job with Cammy. While inaccurate to the SFV designs, I think SHF Chun Li is fantastic and Ryu is pretty damn good as long as you fix the default face. Rashid is ironically GREAT (and I say this because no one is really interested in him, so all that effort should have gone to Cammy) and the promo pics for Akuma look amazing. I will try to mod this Cammy a little bit when I get her in the mail but considering I believe SHF to be overall the most consistent 1/12 line, that should not be necessary at all. At least it's cool that you do find some good stuff in her and she looks quite fine in certain poses...but man that green-toned skin...why.
I've got this figure on preorder with BBTS but the listing says it doesn't ship until September. Shame about the useless/poorly done joints, but I think I can overlook it. I do still like the Play Arts Kai figure a lot, even if the knees look real bad.
I was gonna go for the figures of this line because they had more characters, but I ended up going with the Storm Collectible's one, it just looks a lot better overall despite the lack of characters.
I know this figure has problems but compared to the other cammy figures you have reviewed how does this one compare overall? Is it the best cammy so far?
has anybody bothered cutting off the butt plate? im thinking of cutting off just a bit of the butt cheek, but im worried the green plastic might stand out too much
Ugh! Deja vu ALL OVER AGAIN... Those UGLY knees! They didn't bother to add those knee caps, just like SquareEnix failed to do with their own Cammy figure! Figure is worth $40 at the most. NOT $60 or above! Thanks for sharing, Anthony. : )
Great review Anthony, it just sucks that Bandai made such poor choices for this figure when Chun Li was actually pretty nice.Any chance you'll be picking up the Yuki Mori Figuarts? That looks like a pretty decent figure. Though I THOUGHT this would also be a really decent one as well.And whats with Bandai getting rid of the pull down thigh articulation? I get that it's "unnatural", but it was nice to have for more flexible characters like Cammy who can do some high kicks and not have her legs come up at an awkward angle.
AnthonysCustoms www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/51316 She's from Space Battleship Yamato. I know of the anime and I'm a fan of Toei's animation style so I'm pretty sure I'm going to get her. But overall it LOOKS like a good figure. I just hope it actually is.
Though now that I look at it closer, it looks like she might have that weird/unnecessary lower ab crunch. Though it's not as jarring on her as it is on Cammy since I didn't notice it until after this video.
+tomi christian not opinion. The problems exist. The opinion part comes in when you decide to accept them or not. That's why I said at the end that the rest is up to you. She does pose well
The figure looks just like it has since they showed images. It's a simple face design and I'm weirded about a bit by the paint job but it looks cool nonetheless and I do actually like her face.
I'll have to check then. I do remember her having a really cartoon face with weird legs. But, I am not as critical as ya..which isn't a bad thing hehe. It's why I watch your channel all the time...honest opinions. Thanks for the feedback.
Incredibly pissed off about the dumb choices made on this figure but I will still get it because what other choices do we have for Cammy? I don't want to wait another 5+ years or more and I know she'll go up in price later. Bandai's cost cutting is getting really obnoxious though. Raise the prices $5-15 and have some standards like figma is doing right now. People may not be happy about the prices but at least the stuff they do buy has a pleasing paint finish. As for the knees...why not just use the same circular joint like on Chun-Li? I don't get it. The level of effort they put into the latest Kamen Riders is amazing but apparently Street Fighter and DBZ aren't allowed to get that level of care.
Don't forget the Gundam figures (not the model kits, that's Bandai Hobby's job) A lot of them are hella expensive but they turn out very satisfying. Seems that Bandai is also giving the same treatment to Ultraman nowadays, since that along with Gundam and Kamen Rider are like their Big Trio
+DS2 was crap but Shanalotte is still best Waifu Yeah. The Ultraman stuff isn't really my thing but they are putting a lot of effort into them. Which is funny because Ultra-Act started out really poor and basically killed the line despite later figures getting way better. The SHF Ultraman is basically a continuation of those improvements under new branding and it seems to be doing well.
+EvilRyu8393 Eh...don't really like the way they handled Chun Li and definitely don't like the huge scale. Cammy is one of my favorites so if they DO make a good one I will probably get it.
Glad you reviewed this man.. Too bad storm didnt make this.. I hope they do well with the female figures.. I need the street fighter and mortal kombat females in my collection and cant buy em until theyre solid.. How dare they do this to Cammy's iconic ass? Unforgivable
AnthonysCustoms Cool! Looking forward to it! Master chief or buck I hope! Really curious to see how bucks helmet fits, removable helmets are always sketchy. Awsome videos!
I love sh figuarts despite dumb cost cutting mistakes, but it's really irritating. How do we make it stop besides having to go out our way tocustomize them ourselves? Nice review tho
The painting has already almost disappeared on the side of the neck of my Cammy, and there's no paintshading ! on the other side, Rashid is perfect, he looks like he's straight out of the game
Did Bandai fire the accessories division? Both of the Arts lines seem to be increasingly short on accessories and those that are included are rather bland. If you're going to give us faces give us a pained face rather than a repaint with redirected eyes. P.S. Her IT Band is tight that's why her feet aren't straight. ;)
Great review, very helpful, you know your stuff man, im still getting the figure, but it could have been so much better. Maybe one day we will get an ingame acurate street fighter figure, not the Bandai anime version, nor the more asian looking storm figure.
Hmmmmm the faces you got on these look decent, and pretty close to the prototypes. Saw some Japanese collectors post some truly horrible face plates, with the eyes all over the place, and the lips even a bit off.
in every toy review that he talks about human anatomy i say to my self wow i have learned something new
+The toy Thief happy to help
Disappointing SHF getting lazy/cheap on such iconic line. Good review.
What's up with the lack of painting in recent shf
Bandai spending all their money on the kamen rider figures
Nickerino idk why
raidenkeify because the Kamen Rider series is as big as the Super Sentai franchise in Japan
Just cutting corners... saving money or laziness, either way It's starting to put me off the line
“But! No pun intended...”
ROFL!!! I’m sorry, but that was so hilarious
6:20 That part with subtitles in spanish... Hehehe.
This figure screams cost cutting and time saving. The recent hit or miss nature of their figures in regards to paint and engineering has been super irritating. At least they haven't gone full Mafex where shit falls apart and breaks.
I feel like Bandai isn't confident enough to step into a semi-realistic face game. Everything they do is either real life printing or anime. Interested to see what Storm pulls out of their hat, their Chun Li looks pretty good.
+Samuntrus agreed

Even though it has some disappointing aspects, i still preordered this figure on Big Bad Toy Store. I just love the look of it and its still a decent figure.
Did it get a custom paint job later?
i hope storm collectibles will make a cammy figure
agreed
Jason Todd or Sakura, Id love to see them do other characters

i never said this line is "not that great." watch my ryu and chun-li reviews.
Indeed, you did not. I only inferred it because of what you said at 12:26. It seemed to me you were talking about the line in general.
was referring to this figure. check my other two reviews for this line.
Bandai is paying through the nose for the Star Wars license and we can tell it's where all their effort is going. SHF Star Wars figs are beautiful.
I've got this figure on preorder with BBTS but the listing says it doesn't ship until September.
Shame about the useless/poorly done joints, but I think I can overlook it. I do still like the Play Arts Kai figure a lot, even if the knees look real bad.
+Xenomrph me too
Hey can I suggest if you can make a custom for link in his deity form, ? I haven't seen any figures of him, wished there was an official one.
K if she's half bad what do you honestly rate VAH whitebeard cuz for the price difference I feel you went easy on him compared to cammy
Man he's definitely a shit figure
+Travis Echum I already reviewed him
I Thought Cammy has a Bunch of tattoos all over her *THICC THIGHS*
Gem Macaraeg it was paint and not in sfV and without it her one piece looks just like a one piece
Its really camo paint she puts on a d also this is street fighter 5 cammy.
I was gonna go for the figures of this line because they had more characters, but I ended up going with the Storm Collectible's one, it just looks a lot better overall despite the lack of characters.
Had a feeling this one was going to have strange problems. Oh well, i kind of need it, so.
I know this figure has problems but compared to the other cammy figures you have reviewed how does this one compare overall? Is it the best cammy so far?
Still buying it. Lol big fan of street fighter. The picture in the end of the video sold me.
+Francisco Berumen like I said, she does have a lot of good features. Enjoy.
Will do Anthony, thank you.
has anybody bothered cutting off the butt plate? im thinking of cutting off just a bit of the butt cheek, but im worried the green plastic might stand out too much
They should make poison, juri crimson ,ibuki ,and that Brazilian chick
Ugh! Deja vu ALL OVER AGAIN... Those UGLY knees! They didn't bother to add those knee caps, just like SquareEnix failed to do with their own Cammy figure!
Figure is worth $40 at the most. NOT $60 or above!
Thanks for sharing, Anthony. : )

Oh my fucking god that’s how she looks
Are you having a problem. You should seek help from a qualified professional.
AnthonysCustoms I think u do u little shit
hello anthony, maybe you do not know it, but it would be great that you do the revision of figma Gravity Kat 2.0 number 336
I love your review. Very neutral. Not hater, not fanboy. Very informative. Will you be doing a Rashid one?
+Al Ch yes but only once he comes out in the usa
had a feeling this figure was going to be mediocre :/ thanks for the review
in your opinion, there are some serious problems, however you got her on some badass poses! gotta get her!
+tomi christian not opinion. The problems exist. The opinion part comes in when you decide to accept them or not. That's why I said at the end that the rest is up to you. She does pose well
You saved me a disappointing purchase, dude. Thank you.
I'll stick with my SOTA Cammy and wait and see if Storm does one.
+KrackerJak it's still a fun figure
Hmm, I think I'll cancel my preorder. Thanks for the great indepth look!
Wich one is better to you Anthony: SHF or Sota Cammy? Tks and congrats for the channel
+Douglas Philippe Sena Bezerra shf. It's not comparable to sota. Thanks
Tks bro =D
The figure looks just like it has since they showed images. It's a simple face design and I'm weirded about a bit by the paint job but it looks cool nonetheless and I do actually like her face.
+Played With it's actually not the same as what was originally down.

+SafeguardKilly yeah. Its a bummer.
Or you could also wait for Storm Collectables to make her. I have a feeling she'll be announced soon
+DS2 was crap but Shanalotte is still best Waifu Yeah. The Ultraman stuff isn't really my thing but they are putting a lot of effort into them.

it would be fine if it was painted properly.
Would have been better I guess if they did not paint the flesh color on the hip area.. leave it as a normal leotard as opposed to a thong one.
Great video man. But. Damn what a let down. I was actually waited on this figure. But dang, what a bad execution.
Will you be reviewing Mattels Halo Universe series 2 figures?
at least one of them.
AnthonysCustoms Cool! Looking forward to it! Master chief or buck I hope! Really curious to see how bucks helmet fits, removable helmets are always sketchy. Awsome videos!
I guess I'm sticking to Kotobukiya's Bishoujo Line...
I wish I would have waited for the Storm Collectibles figure [I'm assuming they're making one]
some choices are Definitely odd (and lame), but it should the action poses needed and Hey, what other same scaled Cammy are there out there, hah!
yep. that's about the way it is unfortunately.
Im gonna let yall decide if i should get this figure or not put yes or no in the reply section
I love sh figuarts despite dumb cost cutting mistakes, but it's really irritating. How do we make it stop besides having to go out our way tocustomize them ourselves? Nice review tho
only way to make it stop is to stop buying or let them know directly on social media.
The painting has already almost disappeared on the side of the neck of my Cammy, and there's no paintshading ! on the other side, Rashid is perfect, he looks like he's straight out of the game
While this figures has some flaws, I still like it.
me too
Sup amd what happened to the Livestreams and keep up the Good work
Livestreams are all on twitch now. You should join us! Every Mon/Tues/Thurs/Sat. Check the schedules.
Arthur Chen thanks I will
+K&P Mann I made s video a while back talking about moving the streams to twitch. Check it out!
AnthonysCustoms ok
AnthonysCustoms and what time at 8:00 or what I forget times sometimes
cammyfor a long time
do a review of storm cammy figure, she looks amazing in her killer bee battle suit and long hair
Great presentation !😊👌
Did Bandai fire the accessories division? Both of the Arts lines seem to be increasingly short on accessories and those that are included are rather bland. If you're going to give us faces give us a pained face rather than a repaint with redirected eyes.
P.S. Her IT Band is tight that's why her feet aren't straight. ;)
Great review, very helpful, you know your stuff man, im still getting the figure, but it could have been so much better.
Maybe one day we will get an ingame acurate street fighter figure, not the Bandai anime version, nor the more asian looking storm figure.
we will see.
Yeah it looks terrible but am not one for look if it fun to Pose then a will give it a chance
the THICC
yo aun esperando la versión pirata.... es que soy pobre
Y pendejo tambien... Jaja
and they telling us to pay 40$ on this unfinish painted figure... eh i dont give a shit its cammy
Hmmmmm the faces you got on these look decent, and pretty close to the prototypes. Saw some Japanese collectors post some truly horrible face plates, with the eyes all over the place, and the lips even a bit off.
+Arthur Chen probably bootlegs. Bandai wouldn't go that far in the wrong direction.
+AnthonysCustoms bootlegs this early on? Well... hopefully factory rejects that won't be a real issue.
Please lord will they make mkx figuarts
Hey great video
is to expensive
I find it ridiculous that they gave her a bicep swivel but didn't give Ryu one.
Kind of disappointing, She's my main, I need a good cammy figure
its still a lot of fun
At least they ditched the "bridge" of plastic in the crotch they been doing as a hip joint system- that was hideous.
Video: As always 10.
Fuck is this figure: WTF.
I only want akuma from this line
Good Fig
i feel Chun-Li is the best in their line so far
+Ben Kh agreed
She's missing her scars on her legs as well as detail to her hair and face!
Decent figure I guess.
OscarG787 They're not scars they're tattoos and cammy no longer has them on her legs in street fighter 5 which is where this version of cammy is from.
Good thing im not collecting this line
First comment!!!!
Legs man legs and
😂😂😂😂😂
In the review your just complaining about the figure 98% of the time like you can do want better. 😑
Hush
Bro its cammy stop complainting shes hot
I would like this video but his atatuide ruins it completely. Try to calm down bruh
So, you clicked on a review but don't like that it is a review? sounds about right for someone who is sexually attracted to an action figure.
AnthonysCustoms
Hahaha. Nice one Anthony, That was funny.
AnthonysCustoms OOOH BURRRN
I REALLY hope that they make a Storm Collectibles of Cammy.
