Three new figure lines are coming from Cryptozoic to add to your Street Fighter toy shelf.
Capcom has joined forces with Crytozoic Entertainment to roll out three new collectible product lines based on Street Fighter characters: Knockouts, Lil’ Knockouts, and Mighty Meeples. According to John Sepenuk, Co-CEO of Crytpozoic:
Cryptozoic has had a Street Fighter II arcade machine in our offices since the day we were founded. The game series and its iconic characters feel like they’re a part of our family. So, we are beyond thrilled to work closely with Capcom to create these exciting collectibles based on Street Fighter.
The Street Fighter Knockouts will be 7-inch vinyl figures, depicting the powerful women from the series, sold in display-worthy window box packages. Series 1 will feature Chun-Li, Cammy, and Sakura–designed by Pedro Astudillo, sculpted by Anders Ehrenborg:
Street Fighter Lil’ Knockouts will be 2.75-inch figures, sold in collectible blind-reveal tins. Series 1 will includes fan-favorite classic characters like Ryu, Blanka, Chun-Li and more–out of a total of ten unique figures, plus two rare variants. Promo art below:
The Street Fighter Mighty Meeples (“meeple” being short for “my people”) are 1-inch wooden figures that can be collected and displayed, or can replace board game pieces to add some Street Fighter flavor. “Meeples” were introduced more than fifteen 15 years ago, and possess a distinctive shape that has made them a popular choice as player pieces in a number of tabletop games.
These figures will be shown at this week’s New York Toy Fair, and are expected to hit stores sometime later in 2017.
