Advent Calendar 02: The Day Bison got Reviewed


 Was the greatest day of Nefty's Life... but for Bison, it was Tuesday... Three Bison Figures, all reviewed on a Tuesday. I postponed the Jada Bison to the 2025 Advent Calendar because I was finished with 2024 by the time he arrived to my doorstep. 

So, who is Bison? Evil Dictator and leader of the criminal empire known as Shadaloo. He is able to use the negative energy and amplify his strength. He calls it Psycho Power. Like a roach, he is hard to kill.

Chun Li: Why are we referencing the Shitty Street Fighter movie?
Bison: Wait we're doing The Legend of Chun Li? I WAS PREPARED TO DO 1994!


Articulation 
M. Bison has standard Jada Articulation plus partially Articulated Shoulderpads. There is some Nifty engineering on the shoulder pads in order to make them swappable... They can be a bit tricky though. A part of me is considering buying a second M Bison and glue the shoulder pads to each figure. One figure would have the cake permanently appached. The other would be with the Bear shoulder pads... He can do many of the game poses but but he cannot cross his arms and Jada didn't give him alternate crossed arms like other more expensive fogures have.
4.5
Bison: Are we referencing the Anime movie or SFII V?
Ken: Yes...
Ryu: Maybe?


Paint and sculpt
For the most part he's based on SF2... He's.
 Not as bulky as the street fighter alpha version, but he is bulkier than the street fighter 2 version. I kind of wish we could get the emaciated capcom vs SNK version of Bison.
5.0
Nefty VO: It was at this moment Fei Long Realized he fucked up!


Accessories
Extra hands
Extra head
Alternate Shoulder pads 
Psycho Power effect

I need To get some Marvel Legends Magneto energy hands because they are purple and they match the psycho power effect... 
4.5
Ryu: OK, we're doing The Anime movie and I'm without a duffelbag.


Overall:
Bison gets a 4.67 as his final score. I've been having way too much fun with this figure. This is a pretty decent figure for its price poand I'd dare say that it's as image better than some of the imports...
