The time has nearly come to unleash these high-quality figures!
Yoshinori Ono, the executive producer of Street Fighter V, recently shared new images of the vastly detailed Bandai Tamashii Nations S.H.Figuarts Ryu and Chun-Li figures on his Twitter account. The photographs were taken at Tamashii Nations Akiba Showroom, the official showroom facility of the Bandai brand, to exhibit their newest products.

Two fighters arrive, with two more on the way.
According to Ono, the two famous fighters will headline the new figure line in Round 1, with Rashid and Cammy to follow suit in Round 2. Each figure will come with multiple hands and faces, special effect pieces and stands, and a backdrop sheet placing each fighter within an iconic stage from Street Fighter V. The collectibles will cost ¥6,480, which equals roughly $60 USD. More photographs can be found at the Bandai Corp. Collector’s Division Official Twitter account below.

Plenty of choices for your preferred purchase.
The action figures were first listed back in December of 2016, so it’s nice to seem them back in the spotlight, especially so soon before their release. Ryu and Chun-Li are currently available for pre-order on Amazon for $59.99, with a release date of June 15. Lower prices are available at both AmiAmi (Ryu, Chun-Li) and the Lunar Toy Store (Ryu, Chun-Li) with varying release dates.
