I’m shocked that more people aren’t talking about these guys; especially with all the press around JadaToys finally making an affordable 6inch SF line, I thought people would go crazy for a similar thing with Tekken. All I know is I need this guy for the Smash collection; I’d prefer an sh Figuarts figure but this will suffice for now.
Totally agree but I also think there's a lot of reluctance cos of bandai's work on the Dragonstars Line which is subpar compared to these , there is a big jump in quality and yeah sure there not on Jada's Level but they are really good figures
These are a huge step up in engineering from Anime Heroes though, so I wonder how they may iterate or improve in future waves! It doesn't seem their factories have the ability to make any sort of pinless tech or insert joints though, which is strange. Hopefully that gets sorted out in the future.
Great review of these Tekken figures Brian. I want to like these figures so much as Tekken is my favourite kicky punchy game, but they are just not vibing with me at all. I think the bar is just so high now from lines like Classified, Marvel Legends, Action Force and Street Fighter II, that anything new to the market really has to be top tier.
Yeah i totally see where your coming from if these had came out 3/4 years ago theyd be game changers but the way 1.12 figures have developed lately there is so much amazing stuff , I think these guys will get there eventually though cos there is a good starting point here with these tekken figures with them being Namco I'd hope they do Soul Calibre aswell
Awesome review Brian and fair assessment. It's a shame about the unstable articulation. These guys look like model kits. I appreciate your take on them!
@@BriansActionFigureReviews Good thinking Woody!😂 I was worried about the sizes as I wanted to do an animation of Kazuya with Ryu and thanks to you! I have a reference with Mario😏
I think the looseness although annoying it's not the worst I've had he can still hold poses and what not , I'm really looking forward to getting hands on with those Jada Street Fighter figures to measure them up together, but if your looking for a non storm cheap alternative these are great in general
Maybe they will in the future that would be really cool but I get the feeling they wanted to come straight out the door with the big hitters same release schedule as storm collectibles so far
They took the smart approach and went with a more recognizable version of the character. Especially seeing as this is their first outing with Tekken figures. It's like if you're making Spider-Man figures for the first time, you don't want to start with something like a Noir suit. You'd obviously start with the good ol red and blue first.
i think it being kinda loose sucks but is to be expected from bandai's cheaper figures since it is common to have defects in them while not to extreme it is quite common i will still pick these up because i can't afford the storm ones
It’s unfortunate; these figures just do not look good at all. The obvious (timely) comparison is the SFII line from Jada, and this product does not come close. Would love to see Jada do Tekken 2.
There not all bad I like the 2 I have but in saying that having recently just got my 1st jada figures they pale in comparison but that is a massive bar now , I had been comparing these to bandais previous line the dragonstars from which they are an improvement but they really need to big time step it up now
@BriansActionFigureReviews aye I'm in those as well Brian. Think I spoke to you in the ML Ireland group. I'm in Russia here at the minute and FB is banned so was trying to get a message into the group as I bought a few figures before I left and know the sellers have messaged me but I can't reply lol so was hoping someone could post a message on my behalf but it's all good. Thanks for replying btw 🙂
Look really poor compared to the new Street Fighter figures. Having visible pins is a fail in 2023. Going to pass and hope Storm releases a v2 of these figures so I can pick them up

I hope we get more of these, maybe King, Nina, Yoshimitsu etc. I have wanted Tekken figures since I was a child.
King and Jin Kazama are the next 2 coming apparently I haven't seen images yet though I am looking forward to them though
King is here
@@donutkun8398 yeah i saw him looks good , can't wait to get him
These are a huge step up in engineering from Anime Heroes though, so I wonder how they may iterate or improve in future waves! It doesn't seem their factories have the ability to make any sort of pinless tech or insert joints though, which is strange. Hopefully that gets sorted out in the future.
Yeah if they got pinless joints and a few small improvements here and there these have the potential to be awesome altogether
If they released Jin and his devil side I would definitely buy it and make a stop motion fight between the 2
Jin is supposed to be in the next wave with king
@@BriansActionFigureReviews yeah but I hope it's released this year
These are actually pretty freaking nice.
Yeah they definitely do a job , admittedly they could be better though, but still a nice budget option

Thanks for your reviews
Anytime my friend thank you for watching :)
Thanks for the very useful review, Brian! The comparisons to ML helped me make up my mind :)
Awesome glad I could help 🔥
Awesome review Brian and fair assessment. It's a shame about the unstable articulation. These guys look like model kits. I appreciate your take on them!
Thanks very much for watching , yeah model kits are very similar .
Looks fantastic! I want them to make stop motion fighting,,,,,,
Ooh they'd be perfect for that !
Thanks for the ML and especially Mario comparisons - a Smash Bros. display is absolutely why I’m interested in this figure.
Yeah had to be done lol
He Looks So Awesome I'm Glad They Made Him Around 6 Inches and I'm Going To Get Him
Yeah him and Heihachi are cool figures
Really Cool But Big Bad Toy Store Got The High Wrong
@@CN.TSUKAIMA yep the box is 8 inch not the figures lol
yup . adding him to the Super Smash collection. when more figures come out, I'll do street fighter x tekken.
Oh sweet idea dude! Think king and jin are the next two out
Finally the only review with size comparison of Kazuya in smash
Haha I had to do it 🤣
@@BriansActionFigureReviews Good thinking Woody!😂
I was worried about the sizes as I wanted to do an animation of Kazuya with Ryu and thanks to you! I have a reference with Mario😏
@@SiteOfHeroesOficial yeah I'm still waiting on the jada stuff to arrive even though I ordered months ago 🤣🤣
Definitely needs a bit of a paint up lol that's upsetting about the looseness.
I think the looseness although annoying it's not the worst I've had he can still hold poses and what not , I'm really looking forward to getting hands on with those Jada Street Fighter figures to measure them up together, but if your looking for a non storm cheap alternative these are great in general
I'm gonna make a kazuya smiling meme
When you finally got a game dimensions Jin and Devil Jin that you've waited for 1 year
Me: 0:32
Hahaha that would be awesome
@@BriansActionFigureReviews yeah
I can't wait when Jin and his devil side gets released
Jin and King are in the next wave apparently, looking forward to those
@@BriansActionFigureReviews yeah but sadly I will only get jin
I think I might have him today this april fools. April 1 2024
Haha
Thanks for the review. I will be removing this guy from my cart now.
Glad I could help
Oh yeah they made a jin kazama game dimensions figure now
Yep him and King are coming soon
@@BriansActionFigureReviews I hope they will be on sale
i would like to see jada toys make tekken figures
Haha yeah that would be awesome but I believe Jun said in a livestream he has zero interest in tekken so that's probably that
@@BriansActionFigureReviews i respect juhn and everything but zero interest breaks my heart
@@samfreddyicarly5837 yeah same but as long as he keeps going with other capcom stuff like darkstalkers I'll get over it lol
Tbh they coulda went w kazuya ceo outfit version
Maybe they will in the future that would be really cool but I get the feeling they wanted to come straight out the door with the big hitters same release schedule as storm collectibles so far
No way. This is og kazuya
@@mhutch5082 yup

@@Nin_the_Shinobi yep this exactly went with something that would definitely sell
i think it being kinda loose sucks but is to be expected from bandai's cheaper figures since it is common to have defects in them while not to extreme it is quite common i will still pick these up because i can't afford the storm ones
Yeah it's unfortunate but at the same time not a deal breaker you can still get them into great poses and things
@@BriansActionFigureReviews exactly
Music is really loud compared to the speakin in the video
Noted i will check out the levels in future thanks ✌

When cammy coming out?
Early next year I'd imagine
Whoa these came out already.?
Yeah they dropped so fast they were barely announced and they were up on amazon
Sheesh. I pre order the day I saw. And seeing that it his drop downs pisses me off inside. Hate those.
Bigbadtoystore listed these as 8 inch figures💀
Yeah i think the measurements they got included the box aswell , someone along the line messed up anyway
Only criticism is the head looks small as shit. Still wanna collect though
yeah the head does look a bit of proportion
Hi Brian. Are you a member of MLUK? Im from North of Ireland and a subscriber of yours. If you are let me know please.
No dude I am on Marvel Legends Ireland and Marvel Legends Community UK the much better group of the 2
@BriansActionFigureReviews aye I'm in those as well Brian. Think I spoke to you in the ML Ireland group. I'm in Russia here at the minute and FB is banned so was trying to get a message into the group as I bought a few figures before I left and know the sellers have messaged me but I can't reply lol so was hoping someone could post a message on my behalf but it's all good. Thanks for replying btw 🙂
@@CaptainShamrock of course dude fire away and I can help as best I can 😊
6 is literally _above_ average
Yep that is correct
Look really poor compared to the new Street Fighter figures. Having visible pins is a fail in 2023. Going to pass and hope Storm releases a v2 of these figures so I can pick them up
They work as a budget alternative to storm but they definitely have there failings
@@BriansActionFigureReviews I’m sure the license wasn’t much. But Jada has started off so strong, I was hoping this would be similar
@@richardl4272 yep Jada has definitely set the standard I only got my 1st one a few days ago and it's incredible
Looks like a kids toy
I wouldn't give kids these , but everyone to there own i guess :)
@@BriansActionFigureReviews they are overpriced but that aside...
This is a knock off brand of jada toys sf lol made directly for children not adult collectors. They could've tried but they didn't. 🤦🏿♂️
I dunno I like them but not everyone likes the same things, I definitely accept there is a lot of flaws
no its not they just got the license for these and made them in anime heroes/dragon stars style
