My friend, who is at an Alliance open house in Terre Haute, IN says that we will soon have Street Fighter Clix, totally compatible with Heroclix.

Very reliable info, but only time will tell.

That's...interesting.

I'm curious to see how it'd work. I'd have to get me an M. Bison.

DarkBlueAnt

I will buy those immediately.

I hope they wouldn't just limit it to Street Fighter 2 though. I need my main man, Hakan!

DAN!

We must have a DAN!

(And I'd think the entire franchise would be up for grabs. Ryu/Ken duo fig could be hilarious.)

And HeroClix compatible? Awesome. Someone is getting ready for Marvel/Capcom 3 I think. ;)

If Jeff's brother ever gives it back.

So is this supposed to be its own line? A collector set?

Seems a bit limited to have its own line.

I just came back from the open house and yes there will be street fighter clix that are 100% compatible with heroclix they did not say when its due out as they just got permission to make the announcement like an hour before the presentation

Wikipedia lists the Street Fighter franchise as having 92 characters.

That's enough for nearly a set and a half.

I don't know that I would want a full set. Maybe just like a 25 fig collectors set, or better yet some Battle Packs.

I have fond memories of playing Street Fighter 2, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Marvel vs. Steet Fighter, and Marvel vs. Capcom 1-2.

There's 37 characters in Street Fighter 4 alone. I'm an avid player of both and I couldn't be more excited. Additionally, there's alternate costumes galore that could be used for LEs, this is going to rock. They wont just be close combat monsters either, theyres plenty of fireballs to go around.

Thats actually every feasible Street Fighter there is. There are about 15 more from Street Fighter ex but Capcom doesn't own the rights. You could probably double some up with Alpha Versions.
And there is "Evil Ryu"

Just throwin that out there. its big enough, but just barely.

CuriousLurker

10/09/2010, 00:23

Must have Akuma!

And with that Team "ooma" will be invincibility... Akuma, Attuma, Puma, Fing Fang Fooma and Prof Zooma!

I would kill a man for a 200-300 point, fully-compatible Kazuya clix.

He must have a Demon Uppercut special power dealing 5 unavoidable clix and 7 for the spinning kick (I forget the name).

Also, a trait of regeneration like Wolverine's cause he's awesome and he keeps coming back!! BREAK HIM!!! BREAK HIM SO BAD!!!

EDIT: As far as Street Fighter clix go...Akuma, Ryu and Juri, KTHX!!

Wimbley

10/09/2010, 03:36

what would be really cool would be LEs with the acual real names for the fighters akuma would be gokie, M. Bison would be Vega, balrog would be M. Bison, Vega would be Balrog

that would be awesome!!

Carabas

10/09/2010, 05:57

Keywordwise, they have a problem as not a single one of them should lack Martial Artist, which ought to create some imbalance if the set is any good. Maybe that one is finally going the way of Mutant keyword.

Also, if it's a hit, how long before Mortal Kombat Klix?

Kager

10/09/2010, 06:09

Id go for sakura clix ^_^ WOOT!!!

and @ tekken clix... i would think that Heihachi should have that wolverine regen power instead of kazuya. Heihachi got blown up by 10's of jack 4's, that shot him miles away and was then buried for weeks. For someone who's "human" and not using the devil gene, he should be the one to never die

fut_baller

10/09/2010, 07:47

I am intrigued but I foresee lots of Combat reflexes and the Martial Artist type powers (CCE, Sup Sns, etc.) I will reserve judgement until I see sculpts and dials.

Chun Li. I remember using that double jump of hers to great success(esp against Vega in Spain). Street Fighter II was the first game my mama bought for me on my SNES. I dont think my thumbs have recovered yet.

As much as I love Street Fighter, I don't wanna see Street Fighter HeroClix. Make them Action Clix. I have a feeling that the HeroClix brand is going to get watered down with too many properties... :noid:

I'm 100% with this guy and I absolutely love Street Fighter. I think that Heroclix should remain a superhero/comic book based game. If it were just Street Fighter, then I would be fine with it. We all know it is going to sell well, so it is going to open the door for any other properties that Wzikids/NECA can get their hands on to make some money. I'm not going to lie. I'm excited to be able to play Ryu and Guile with Azrael and Batman. It's going to be a set/box set/collectors set with a bunch of figures with very similar powers though.

YES! I only wish the license expanded to the greater Capcom universe. Maybe there will be some chase figures like Megaman?

Seems a bit limited to have its own line.

I'd say the same for Iron Maiden clix, lol.

Give me the Street Fighter 2 lineup but add Akuma and Dan and make it a small collectors set.

YES! I only wish the license expanded to the greater Capcom universe. Maybe there will be some chase figures like Megaman?

I wish they would but things like this and Capcom characters, TMNT, etc together to make something different that isn't compatible with Heroclix. I mean, I see what they are trying to do and my limited releases like this more accessible but I don't like it. Then again, I don't like seeing DC and Marvel figures in the same game. I just don't think it's right to have Superman and Spider-Man facing off. There is a reason these characters exist in a different narrative from each other.

elfholme

10/09/2010, 13:56

Eh, Mortal Kombat clix would be better. But what the heck. I might get some.

Shellhead's Pal

10/09/2010, 15:00

Firstly, I'm totally into this idea.

But, it's got me thinking. Street Fighter (and other fighting games like it) always strive for (if not attain) character balance. With the exception of the bosses, it feels like everybody should pretty much be the same point-cost.

I'm thinking around "50" points for a regular character would accurately balance them with each other and with the Marvel and DC characters (think Puma from Web of Spider-Man). Otherwise, they're pretty much flat-out admitting that certain characters are more powerful than others. Plus, if everybody was an even 50 points, that'd make team building a snap for the HeroClix uninitiated. It'd be just like Team-Battle Mode! :grin:

KillerSavage

10/09/2010, 15:04

Confirmed! http://www.gamesalute.com/?p=4042

Since I never got the chance to buy SF figures when they were released in that 3 3/4" GI Joe format, I am amazingly happy to get to buy some at Heroclix scale. I want a Dragon Punch Ken with transparent flames like Phoenix, a Psycho Power M. Bison with purple lightning like Shaman, and a big ol' E. Honda with a hundred hands shooting out of his pose.

Sweet.
A starter set and boosters?! I kinda figured a 25 figure set would have been plenty. Though I can see this as an attempt at expanding their customer base beyond comic book fans. Which can only be a good thing for clix.

If they are indeed compatible, 100% compatible, with Heroclix, then I am onboard for this set.

And I don't even like the Street Fighter games.

10/09/2010, 16:04

If street fighter is coming why not King of Fighters and Dragonball z/gt too. KOF has some cool characters and awesome powers to boast, same as true for dragonball z/gt. If you ever played KOF, or any other SNK fighting games, or watch the Fatal Fury movie series you would see that they can stand out for themselves and have cool finishing moves, especially in the arcades. While DBZ/GT speaks for itself. We have seen all over the net the hype of goku vs superman thing. People are wondering who would win if the two fights. And what better place to find out but in heroclix.

If Street Fighter is coming out, then I will buy it for sure. It is nice to play something different besides DC and Marvel characters. And hoping this will be the start of having different characters to play with, coming from manga or anime genre.

Chun Li: Martial Artist

Chun-Li should also have the detective keyword.

I'd totally love to get hold of Chun-Li, Cammy and Blanka for my Clix collection!

Wimbley

10/09/2010, 16:28

i just don't get the people who are complaining that its compatible.. what killed horror clix and the reason i never bought any was because it wasn't compatible. who is to say this wont be its own game like horror clix but it is also compatible with heroclix??

me im kinda excited! even though i don't play much clix any more but this sounds really cool and ill prolly pick up a few packs if they are in packs... if its like watchmen.... prolly will skip it, unless i can see the figs, if the figs are viewable and they look good then i might buy them depending on the price

b11a2

10/09/2010, 16:30

I REALLY hope they're compatible. I might still buy some if they're not, but it'd just be to put their sculpts on HeroClix legal dials!

bluedragon90

10/09/2010, 17:00

I like this idea, even though I am not a huge on street fighter (though there are some I like) mainly because I would like to bring in even more non comic clix to play and play against. Fingers crossed for anime clix!!!

bill4935

10/09/2010, 17:13

Being compatible takes away nothing and adds everything. A clix game (Halo, SF2, Eddie, etc) can have its own PAC and special rules... adding up to be completely different from Heroclix. BUT even with all that, those figures could still have Heroclix-standard power colours and stats.

Why not?

/If they do more CapcomClix, this might be a good way to get Blackheart, Shuma-Gorath, and Spiral done right. :)

Kamakura

10/09/2010, 17:18

Do they all get the Martial Artist keyword?

W10002

10/09/2010, 17:21

First it's Marvel v. Street Fighter. Soon they'll expand the roster so we can replicate Marvel v. Capcom. Although, they'll need a new Magneto. One that has a speed of 12 to represent how fast this old man can pull a 60 air combo.

10/09/2010, 17:36

Not to mention all the possible generics and NPCs from the Street Fighter universe. It could easily have a few sets.

I would love it if this were 100% compatible, and released as Indy Heroclix. The Indy branch of the game could really use some new life breathed into it, and Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat have both had comics, and neither is a DC or Marvel property.

If it's not 100% compatible, I doubt I'll buy any. Not that I hate the characters, but my wallet really can't take another game (particularly one that won't get much local play on it's own, IMO).

If it's just another Metallica-clix (Heroclix in name alone), then I'll pass.

PlotDeviceLad

10/09/2010, 23:01

It's good to see NECA utilizing one of their licenses - Street Fighter (or at least Street Fighter IV, according to their licenses page).

I'm anticipating expanded news and confirmation of set list.

As much as I've talked down the possibility of TMNT clix in the past, this news has me looking forward to the possibility that NECA will utilize (or even acquire) other licenses to translate to Heroclix. Good show!

I want to play Christ redfield team up with marvel zombies....
And the good news is that they have the Resident Evil license!

I'll admit I didn't like the RE series until RE 4, which would also be the last video game I ever played, because I believed that game was great enough to end my tenure as a video game player.

Roderic_Cliche

A couple of months ago, I inherited a copy of the Street Fighter role-playing game. I think I'm going to have to read up on that game and get it figured out for when the clix come out.

I've always been lukewarm on suggestions for clixing video game characters, but I am quickly warming up to this idea.

Oh dear God, NO!

Do NOT read up on the Street Fighter RPG! Not if you want to retain whatever faith in humanity you may yet have.

I bought that retail years and years ago. I still want my money back.

I don't like seeing DC and Marvel figures in the same game. I just don't think it's right to have Superman and Spider-Man facing off. There is a reason these characters exist in a different narrative from each other.

The reason is because they are owned by two different companies. Plus, you're forgetting the Amalgam narrative.

Suttkus

10/11/2010, 13:32

Yeah, Superman and Spider-Man facing off against each other would (http://www.comicbookdb.com/issue.php?ID=127896) never happen (http://www.comicbookdb.com/graphics/comic_graphics/1/183/75909_20070427175123_large.jpg) in the comics.

SimonMoon5

10/11/2010, 18:54

Anyway, the Street Fighter gang *have* teamed up with comic book superheroes (well, at least one) in comic books, not just in video games. So, therefore, they are part of a superhero universe, therefore they count as superheros, therefore they belong in Heroclix.

Citation: Malibu Comics' Street Fighter #3 has an appearance by the Ferret (one of Malibu Comic's superheroes with his own comic).

Was it any good? Irrelevant to the discussion. Also irrelevant is that the quality of these comics caused Capcom to immediately pull the license to produce Street Fighter comics away from Malibu.
