JadaToys Street Fighter 2 Chun-Li Review! Another banger!?! Maybe?

[@GreenLanternPrime01]

This Chun-Li looks great. I can’t stop wondering what Jada Toys could do with the DC Comics Universe.

[@odbade1999]

100000% they'd knock out dc mcfarlane multiverse

[@juansanchez209]

@@odbade1999 McFarlane is EASILY my least favorite figure company. The company's fans love to rave about the number of unique sculpts they do, but what good are those sculpts if the vast majority of them are mediocre??? Beyond that, their articulation sucks, there is no consistent scaling within the line, and the character selection is whack

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Maaaaan for real! I am sure they would do a great job with it!

“Jake’s Specific” 😂 Great review. Can’t wait to get mine.

[@Getwright-]

Im looking forward to E Honda. Not only is he who i would play as the most as a kid, but it will also be nice to have a Sumo wrestler figure since we dont get a lot of those

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

E Honda Would be dope for sure! I am curious to see how well they handle bigger characters.

[@drecolizo1]

Juhn over at Jada is awesome and he's got a dream team. Chun-Li is the one I want most and I'm so glad to see this figure meets expectations. Can't wait for mine to come in.

[@juansanchez209]

I genuinely believe all of the major toy companies (Hasbro, Mattel, etc.) have talented and passionate designers who are CAPABLE of making figures just as good as Jada's figures, but Jada is a PERFECT example of one of the benefits of a private company versus a publicly traded corporation. Private companies are able to draw a line and say "We're happy with this amount of profit if it means we can release products we're passionate about and proud of", whereas publicly traded corporations ONLY care about profits. For those who don't know, publicly traded corporations have a legal obligation to prioritize the profits of shareholders above everything else (including product quality) That's why there's a part of me that feels a little bad whenever there's a mediocre figure released that gets (rightfully) trashed by the community. Behind every mediocre Marvel Legend or WWE figure, you know there was a designer who REALLY wanted to make the best figure possible but wasn't allowed to due to budgets and limitations imposed by their corporate overlords. You don't go into toy design unless you really love the hobby, so it's sad to see the designers' creativity and talent go to waste

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Great insight man! I agree completely. I feel bad for some of the corporate guys that are active in the community that get bashed because they are trying to give us what we want and make money for their bosses. Its a no win situation for them.

[@GameTime-yj6qv]

You're absolutely right. I do think though that most people know it is company greed the biggest problem and not so much inferior toy designers.

[@Retrophoria]

Honestly the solution is let more companies make figures from the same license I don’t see how it benefits Disney to only let hasbro make there figures or McFarlane only make dc let other companies compete and we all win.

[@juansanchez209]

@@Retrophoria The REAL profit comes from the exclusivity deals. Disney or any other corporation with desirable and marketable IPs would have a LOT less bargaining power if they didn't do exclusivity deals. By keeping things exclusive (or at the very least restricting licenses to very few companies), the corporations can negotiate INSANE royalties and licensing fees. Unfortunately for us, these corporations win when we lose By the way, nice Zoboomafoo profile pic! I'm in my mid-20s, so I used to LOVE watching that show! My elementary school was a 2 minute drive away from my house, so my mom and I used to watch Zoboomafoo at 7:30 RIGHT before I'd start school at 8:00. That brings back great memories

[@moloko912]

While i agree with you on the quality of jada figure. I have 2 counter points. 1-it is only the first year for jada action figure we have no idea how this line will evolve. 2- mcfarlane is also a private company 😅

[@Scurwesyn]

I cannot wait for their Cyberpunk and Cheetos Chester Cheetah. Glad to hear they make one great action figure after another.

[@DanB.0]

I'm also really excited about Chester, my most anticipated from them and I don't even eat Cheetos lol

[@theleftisttimemachine8196]

"We all know Chun Li's iconic kicking move! I don't have any idea what it's called. It's a crazy ass name actually, I tried to look it up, I couldn't pronounce that shit." Wade is so real for this and it's why I love these videos 😅

[@HighSchoolCreations]

is that a new logo on the intro?!?! or have been sleeping!! Another dope review!!! JadaToys is on FIRE

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

It is kinda new but not new new haha. Thanks for watching homie!

[@rhymingbecktionary]

Wish I could find these more easily. Been scouring a half dozen Targets for weeks looking for Chun-Li and I've at most seen maybe three Jada SF figures (Ryu and Fei Long only) at once while there are ten million Landfill Pops warming shelves.

[@brianmacfarlane9553]

Dope review Wade!! Jada continuing to kill it.

[@obi-onekenerdi]

When it comes to fighting game figures I’ve always wished they came with a taking damage face. I don’t mean battle damaged but the face they make when they’re in the middle of being hit with an attack. These are fighting game characters, they beat each other up, it’s what they were designed to do, and yet we can’t really pose them doing that to each other. Either a surprised expression or one where the character is clearly wincing or something like that, I feel like those could go a long way and open up a lot of display and photography opportunities.

[@JacobMignano167.]

Jada toy’s needs to do dark stalker figures

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Oh yeah that would be dope! I can see them doing those.

[@JacobMignano167.]

@@UnparalleledUniverse they just should do devil may cry and resident evil figures.they would look good next to marvel legends and having a marvel vs capcom shelf would be cool

[@prophet924]

The crispiest of crisp reviews. Chun-Li looks to be top ten for me with 4H Monkey King, Classified blank(insert nearly any of the releases), Cosmic Legions Kraggnar, more to come. NECA Space Usagi. Legends Animated Ock. So many good figures this year.

[@desdichado3308]

Hey, Wade! Great thumbnail! Loved the review as well. 👍🤟Best SF face sculpt and paint so far...

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Thanks! Yeah, her face is good but they still need a little work.

[@GameTime-yj6qv]

Absolutely love this line. So fun. Cant wait to get Chun Li. Excellent review. Love your lighting on your videos by the way.

[@crimsonskull2447]

Would be cool to see Chun Li and Ryu compared to their Power Rangers suits I don’t think I’ve seen anyone do that comparison before.

[@jeff9826]

Jadatoys needs to do a yellow jumpsuit fei long!

[@fortressmattimus3984]

I cannot wait to get this figure! I know nothing about Chun-li, but I like good toys and she looks basically perfect. She has good sculpt and proportions, it's all new and unique, and she's got great articulation. For a character that is known for being a kicker, they nailed the lower body articulation. In the debate between aesthetics and articulation, she clearly appears to have both without having to sacrifice on either end. Also, I'm perfectly fine with them delaying the production. She looks so much better than the earlier test shots, and I'm totally ok with waiting a few months if this is the result. FOTY Top 10 contender for sure! If not top 3

[@obi-onekenerdi]

The figure from wave 1 I’m most excited for. I have the Sh Figuarts Chun Li and she’s a fantastic figure but she’s very animé styled for some reason. So she doesn’t really look like she fits in an X-Men vs Street Fighter or Marvel vs Capcom display. THIS is much closer to what I’ve wanted for so long. It’s a very exciting time to be a Street Fighter fan, with SF6 and this killer line, these characters get the justice they deserve.

[@tommychua9101]

Open mouth head sculpt really look good!

[@rabidhammer31]

I cannot wait for Blanka, player 1 and 2 colors! I'm with you although I did play SF2 a lot I still never like followed the franchise much after. But it was enough to instill a love for the property and as a result am so happy to have a line like this. Going to be deep and consistent and just great I am sure. Dope review bro

[@aliuniversal4100]

Duuude i hope they make chun li in her alpha outfit. Game and movie version

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Oh yeah that would be dope!

[@Choom89]

Jada Toys and Juhn are the absolute best in class, their releases are so good that it's fair to say they are putting other companies to shame at this point. Two lines in and their figures are legitimately going toe to toe with SH Figuarts, they deserve an award for raising the bar.

[@chadkinsler9865]

Great review Wade of a Dope looking figure

[@spadedonemcdysentery2493]

Been hunting for this figure for months and finally found her the other day. I’m no expert but this is easily the best female figure I’ve ever owned. This line is one of my favorite things going on right now. Also got Ryu and Fei long. Planning on going all in on this line and really kicking myself for not getting evil Ryu when he was available. I’ve been focused on tmnt and neca tmnt in particular and it feels good to actually be excited about something else for once. Those lines can really dominate your collection.

[@raypaz2947]

Can’t wait to get mine. I preordered.

[@Emeraldnite-if7vo]

I'm not a big SF fan either--but great figures are great figures and I can't believe how comparable these are to the Storm Collectibles and Figuarts versions at a MUCH lower price point.

[@suhtangwong]

Vibes... Another.. Banger.

[@Saiyan1229]

Is her hair rubber like ryus was? I really hated that cause of how much the paint rubbed off

[@WeeaboohJones]

This chun li doesn’t need a butterfly joint because jung and team actually know how to design articulation. Butterfly joints are usually unnecessary for all action figures. Even when they are done well, you sacrifice a clean sculpt. You could get the same amount of range in the shoulders without a butterfly joint if the shoulders are simply designed well.

[@dannywijaya9291]

i love the way you review the figures man!

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Thanks man! I do my best to make the figures look good and the videos entertaining!

[@drewlovelyhell4892]

I've got a modest collection of Sota figures (Chun-Li, Guile, Vega, Sakura, Akuma, Ibuki, Cammy). They are what got me into collecting action figures as an adult. Don't know if I will go all in on the Jada versions, but Chun-Li is on the way, and here's a few others I definitely want. I was tempted by some Storm Collectibles figures, but they were too expensive for me. Hopefully Jada do some Marvel vs Capcom too.. I'd love a decent Rogue in this style. 😍

[@DanB.0]

Her face is surely the best. For me, the issue with the others are the eyebrows; hers don't look as exaggerated/silly. The amount of accessories she brings is awesome at this price point. Too bad about the neck but I have no other issues with the articulation, I love this figure and hope I can get it!

I know this is a 4 month old video at this point so you probably wont see this comment, but I havent seen anyone else mention it. I think your figure was assembled wrong. The lower neck hinge on my figure is facing forwards, so I get that extra articulation you mentioned might be possible if it was.

Great review, I think jada needs to really work on the quality control and the head sculpts. I feel like a lot youtubers ignore those problems cause their friends with the company.

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

I agree, they need to improve on the head sculpts. I don’t think anyone is ignoring the quality of the head sculpts. I think they have been alright but can definitely do better. I don’t think being cool with one guy at the company Has a significant impact on how people view their products though. I haven’t heard anyone praising the head sculpts or anything.

[@MJAranas]

Forget DC, give Jada Toys the Invincible Universe! Show Marvel Legends and McFarlane how to make superhero action figures! I’ve seen so many people say they’re not Street Fighter fans but they bought into the line, me being one of them. Invincible isn’t as popular as DC or Marvel but with the show, people getting into the comics now, all they need are some good figures (don’t talk to me about Diamond Select). It’s the dream.

[@SupebTy]

😊buy them all

[@WeeaboohJones]

Chin Li looks leagues ahead of the Hasbro black widow. That black widow has nice accessories, headsculpts, and decent articulation, but otherwise it’s just looks like a basic black molded figure. Chin Li has the TLC every figure needs. Nice paint, texturing, accessories, great sculpt, and it’s reasonably priced.

[@momo.ru-kun]

I changed my opinion on these Jada Toys, they are plagued with QC issues. I got 2 Chun-li's already and the bun keeps getting unglued, paint chipping on the hair of Ryu, clothes of Chun-li... the overly tight ratchets are chewing the joints, my Ken and Ryu have totally loose joints now after just 2 months. I emailed Jada about it, but as soon as they learned it was an international purchase through their distributors they immediately copped out of their promise to replace it... prioritizing US buyers because of the influencers and reviewers for their products... terrible experience... will dropping this line.
