Apparently there's a pink Chun-Li and a Violent Ken on the way, as well as a Next Level Fei Long (not sure what that is). I guess I missed the leak back in January (or, more likely, forgot I read about it). It's exciting, but I'm starting to get a tiny bit nervous that this line and Jada are going the way that pretty much all the other SF and MK lines and their manufacturers have gone: so many variants while new product that's been shown isn't seeing the light of day yet. I'm here for the long haul, though. toynewsi.com/247-53015

Hasbro is the only company on that list that completed a roster from a game (Mortal Kombat 1992). Mezco only made 6 characters before losing the license. Jada Toys says they are committed to completing the Ultra Street Fighter II roster, but after Ryu, Ken and Guile, they dont have too many characters that can anchor a wave.

I think Akuma would be a good candidate being an anchor, though Jada have changed their stance on calling them Waves due to the delays & issues with distribution.

I think the variants/repaints should/could be saved for anchoring waves if they feel they need that. The problem with that is we're getting variants elsewhere already, though if you're just looking to please retailers and new consumers, it would work.
I don't care how they do it, I just really want the SSFII roster.

At the end of the day, they have to make these variants to turn a profit on the molds. Sadly they can't just reuse the same mold like other toy companies are doing (nor would I really want them to).
Honestly, the variants are at least decent color choices compared to the Neca SFIV figures and at least the shotos have a reusable mold. That being said, I feel as though the line has been successful enough that they should be able to keep going even if it takes a bit longer than we initially hoped.
Still better than waiting for Storm Collectibles.
