I made a kof 97 display for the joytoy figures but it doesn't look too bad with the arena/jada figures. Depending on where they are standing it can look off but I will still be posing kof arena as soon as then start getting here.
Does anyone like and / or prefer the Arena stands?
I find them to be over-designed just for the sake of being different with no particular benefit:
- They don’t seem to balance well, so I can’t take advantage of the ratchet for height.
- The brace for the clip can’t tilt.
- It’s cumbersome to shove the clip in, and it feels like it could pop out at any time.
- I’m concerned that pressure from the clip can dig into the figure.
I’ve never had an issue with Tamashii stands, but they don’t work for big boy Sagat which got me wondering how others feel about the Arena ones. And for those that don’t like either, what do you use instead?
Also, any stand recs for Collectibles (not Arena)?
Usually I upload a clip with music on new releases then another upload for the review. Daimon does not deserve that treatment. I despise this character + his player base. There are many characters in there I hate in KOF. mostly female characters. Not all. KOF 02 UM online showed me what characters I would despise.

With that being said. We now have a KOF release in hand. Daimon turned out great. Got size. Fun to move around. I thought the shoulder sleeves would annoy me for popping out. But there not as much of a hinderance. I do wish they’d stop making headband ties + ponytails removable & just mold them on. I high doubt anybody would care about swapping them off. These pop off too easily. Just keep them molded. I also like his drop downs way more than the others.
NGL I don't like the default smiling face and am already sick of seeing it across multiple variants.
At this point imma make a storm arena bbts exclusive display i have teal Dan coming in and will be swapping out orange Dan with teal and I have the Evo ones but decided to sell all 3 because I have no room and want to make my p2 display diverse colors but I like how it’s turning out
Is Nash related to Captain Commando?
Outside of those 2 boxers, we have 2 fictional boxers being Balrog and the upcoming Ippo. I preordered Ippo and I still gotta pick up Balrog. Heard he's a great figure.
Almost forgot about Arena's Balrog coming out but I meant more of the Collectibles lineup.
I'm digging this one.
I’ve asked others to show me what this looked like before I got it, but to no avail so showing it off myself in case anyone else was curious.
Lately I asked for help with distinguishing a Yujiro figure, and now the son has arrived. Is he original? I am just nervous because I paid a hundred dollars for this little fella. Can you tell is he okay? Thank all of you for help, previous and current.
Hey all, I just want to preface this by saying I have really enjoyed some aspects of the Storm Arena Street Fighter line.
The figures look awesome, the accessories are cool and they feel awesome (for the most part)
My first Storm Arena figures were the first Ryu and Ken drops. Within a month the Ryu started having tight joints. I chalked it up to bad luck and went on.
Then a few months later the same thing happened to Ken. Then I bought Dan and his joints seized up within 2 days. Video included.
I’ve also done research and have found that many people have experience the same issues.

I plan to send all of this to Storm customer service. For as awesome as their figures are, I do think this needs to be addressed. Shock oil only goes so far and I would much rather support Jada Toys if this quality issue persists
