Akuma seeks only to test himself against the world’s strongest fighters, making him one of the most feared opponents.

Continuing my reviews of Jada Toys Street Fighter figures is Akuma. I was able to pick him up last May, locally, as he was fairly easy to find. I’ve never played as Akuma in any Street Fighter game, but I do think he looks like a very cool character design, and I couldn’t say no to picking him up after seeing him in store. Yes, I knew he would be good, because Jada Toys always do a great job.
I don’t think I will be reviewing every character released, as I only want to buy the characters I like. But, I will try and review all the ones I have or will buy in the near future.
SCULPTING
As expected, Jada Toys have done another excellent job with the sculpting of this figure. Even if I’m sure there is a bit of reuse from Ryu and Ken figures. The head sculpt, even by itself, is great!
PAINT
Paint is kept to a minimum, but what has been painted is up to the high standard expected. No slop or over-spray etc. just nice and neat.
ARTICULATION
Like all previous Jada Toys figures I’ve bought, the articulation is fairly standard and only restricted by the clothes of the character. You can pose Akuma almost any way you want and he’s fun to pose. I had a lot of fun posing him for this photo set and I wouldn’t even call myself an Akuma super fan either. But, that’s one thing I do like, when I can easily take photos and it doesn’t become a chore to do so.
ACCESSORIES
My complaint here would be Akuma’s necklace as it just doesn’t sit right. But I think this is more from the plastic used to hold it together. I changed mine out for string and it’s marginally better. But still a work in progress to find the best solution.
Besides this minor issue and/or personal preference, he comes with extra head, hands and a fire ball and stand for it.
It’s a nice variety of options and all are made well.
POTENTIAL PROBLEMS
Nothing to worry about with this toy. Besides an annoying necklace, everything else is great and problem-free.
PRICE
I paid $45 for my copy from my local EB Games store. That’s pretty much the standard retail price in Australia at least for my local toy shops.
OVERALL
If you are a Street Fighter fan, it would definitely be worth your while picking up this figure. He’s an excellent Akuma figure and looks very menacing. He’s also very fun to pose and play around with and up to the expected standards from Jada Toys. I would not sleep on this figure if you are an Akuma fan.
