Street Fighter Kidrobot Figurines

I don't really see why people want them so bad other than them being so limited. I usually like this type of chibi style done to characters of a franchise like SF, but I don't really like these. Ryu looks like an idiot with his ears sticking out like that, and what's up with his mouth? Come on, these could have been a lot better.

If they really sell that well, I bet there will be a second run/series on a much larger scale.

I think they look pretty cool. I think it would have been much better if they were modeled after the SPFIIT/Super Gem Fighter characters. That would have made more sense.

I don't think it's that people want Evil Ryu so badly. I think the fact that you know what you're getting, you're paying the same price as the regular ones in stores and you know it's limited edition which means they hold value. If you're at CC, why not try to get one? If you don't like it, give it/sell it to a friend that would.

It's many the same reasons people collect a lot of weird, ugly and/or impractical things related to video games.

mostly because limited edition means money when its branded with characters that are popular..

look at the comic con TE sticks, there going for like 300 still. I think they were retail price when they were limited..
