He should be smiling, really. The new Devil May Cry figures from Play Arts came out, and just like all other Play Arts figures, they are the bees knees. It’s a good thing to be the the bees knees, by the way. Highly detailed, and actually reasonably big (10 inches,) these are pretty nifty. Devil May Cry fans don’t actually get a lot of merch ’round these parts, so this is a nice addition to any DMC collection. As far as game news goes, apparently they’re planning a reboot of the franchise made by the same dudes who made Heavenly Sword.

So some new Street Fighter figures came out from NECA.  Unfortunately, they weren’t Sonny Chiba’s Street Fighter toys.  They were Guile, Ken, and Ryu toys, though, with spooky gray hair and spooky black outfits.  Here they are:

Oh, and if you’re old enough, you should see Sonny Chiba’s Street Fighter.  Just to give you an idea of how crazy it is, it was Rated-X when it first came out.  That’s just for insane violence, though.  And if you’re feeling especially masochistic, see Jean-Claude Van Damme’s Street Fighter or Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li - the latter of which I haven’t seen yet.  I haven’t felt crazy enough to watch it yet.
