Ryu made his debut in the first Street Fighter as the primary playable character in the game, with his best friend, rival, and sparring partner Ken Masters serving as the second player's character. Both compete in the tournament depicted in the game in order to test their strength against the tournament's champion, Sagat.
His next appearance was in 1991's Street Fighter II. Set several years after Ryu defeated Sagat in the first tournament, Ryu participates in a second tournament. In his ending in the game, Ryu wins the tournament, but does not stay for the ceremony, already seeking his next challenge.
Finally after 2 decades in the making, Prototypez Studios is more than pleased to bring to you -the most discerning of collectors- this beautiful and powerful rendition of Ryu.
In this amazing masterpiece quality statue made of high end Polyurethane parts and solid polystone resin body and base, with magnets to hold both torsos, belt and head band tails in place. Ryu is depicts the classic Super Street Fighter 2 animated Hadoken intro pose designed by Capcom’s own master character designer Yasuda Akira A.K.A. Akiman. Ryu comes with an alternate switch out upper body that can rest on a beautifully sculpted chess like base.
