Storm collectibles fist of the North Star

[potato]

Makes me want to bust out my old ps2 and play that Hokuto No Ken fighting game. I agree though, Ken looks a bit too bulky compared to the artworks, but still this figure looks pretty rad.

medicom proportion was near perfect.

How does he scale with other 1/6 scale figures? Maybe some threezero anime ones?

I don't have ThreeZero anime series but you can have a look as below to see the height differences to some other figures.

Whoa they made him super tall, then again I know storm collectibles sizes up their 1/12 scale figures. Hmm very interesting,

Thanks.
I discovered it recently and managed to get one from my guy in HK at regular price but I did not see any reviews so it was a blind buy but was scared to regret it lol
But ut looks cool save for the shading of the body wich seems to have disappeared or is very light ,unlike from the proto based on the photos seen here.
Can somebody confirm this?

are the pauldrons glued together if so how difficult is it to remove/put on the jacket? can you feel the suede on the underside to identify as full grain leather?

Are the seamless arms made of rubber or silicone? Shouldn’t have any worries of it tearing if left in the same pose for long like Iconiq Ryu?

They actually did an excellent job on the collar, it's attached by the thinner lining material from the inner jacket. So they knew the problem of making it all one leather piece and the collar wouldn't fold correctly. If you look at the book art, the jacket lapel is supposed to go over the shoulder plates. It looks good in-hand.

I'm not finding any photos of torn Ryu arms. I don't own Ryu but it's probably the same type because I have seen it used in other similar dolls and own a couple, this is a more rigid rubber than what Hot Toys have been using. It isn't the soft rubber that saw all those baby Yoda mouths tearing.

He was never shown to come with that to begin with but they definitely should have gone the extra mile, would need swap out shoulder pads too tho. guess customizers will have to make them because i highly doubt anyone is going to make a bigger or better Raoh figure than this tbh
