It came from the toy chest: fat dudes + tentacles + Japanese schoolgirls oh my

I am doing a 2 for one crossover combo review...
One is a Marvel Legends figure, the other comes from the SH Figuarts Street Fighter line.

Obviously the fat dude and the tentacles cone from Doctor Otto Octavius. Scientist and the TRUE ARCHENEMY of Peter Parker, Spider-Man. Screw  the Osborns, Octavius is the MVp of villainy for Spidey. After getting his mechanical arms fused to his body, Otto seeked power and became the Criminal Mastermind known as Doctor Octopus, The Master Planner, The Master Programmer, the Superior Spider-Man... IIRC he's currently in a cloned body of Peter Parker combined with a  of Otto... this figure depicts the Traditional image that pops into one's head when you say Doc Ock.

Articulation:
Doc Ock's torso reminds me of female figires in the way it works. Everything else is similar to a male figure woth double jointed elbows and knees.

The only issue with him is that his tentacles have ZERO articulation...



No, seriously, what's the point of having a Doctor Octopus that can't stand on his tentacles.
2.5 I'm well aware it's harsh... but Tentacle articulation is what makes or breaks a Doc Ock.

Paint and sculpt:
This Ock is a beauty... well as much of an aging pudgy mad scientist with four mechanical arms can be.
The paint and sculpt are surefire hits, making the Series VIII Ock look like a miss...
5.0

Accessories:
2.5  he HAS (disappointing) Tentacles,  but at the same time it's Dr Octopus and the minimum amount of accessories should be his tentacles. Sadly these tentacles are on Earth equator and if they were going to go with that room they should have put at least two extra tentacles just to give some variability in posing. Supposedly you can use the ToyBiz Marvel Legends series 8 tentacles on this guy.

Overall:
 The doctor gets a 3.33 as his final score. The useless tentacles are what dragged him down.

Ock: I have seen enough Hentai to know where this is going...
Sakura: EW!! EWEWEWEWEWEWEWEW!!!

The second half of this crossover is here.
Ms. Kasugano of Street Fighter is the second character I'm reviewing today... She's like a Mini-Ryu in girl form... She also wants to be Mrs. Ryu, but don't tell her I told you that.
Gifted in the Martial arts, Sakura became a part-time wandering warrior and part-time schoolgirl... Because she wants Ryu to become her master... Oh myy!

Articulation:
Being a Figuarts figure gives her a decent range. She can mimic MOST of her in game poses... except the shoeless victory, her taunt because a pointing hand wasn't included.
5.0

Paint and sculpt:
Ditching the SFV line was the best thing Figuarts could do and instead went for iconic looks (like say, Ken.) In Sakura's case, they used the SFIV look. Black hair, dark socks. In alpha she has lighter colored socks and they lool like rolled down knee high socks. I'm glad they made her in the Schoolgirl outfit, since it's my favorite. Everything seems to be molded in the appropriate colors to avoid paint issues.
5.0

Sakura: Wow! That is one deep hole!
Ryu:(Must resist dat ass! The fight is all!)
Sakura:(Dammit, Ryu! Just give in to temptation!)
Chris Hansen:( How do I say have a seat in Japanese?)

Accessories:
Here is where Figuarts has failed me. Aside the extra 2 faceplates, she only has a Hadoken and an extra pair of hands. Like I mentioned before the pointing hand is not here, so she feels a bit too bare bones...
3.0

Cammy: I want you to shinkuu hadoken all over my face!
Chun Li: mee too!
Sakura: RYUUU-SENPAI!! WHAT ARE THESE WHORES DOING?
Ryu: it's not what it looks like...

6 Overall:
Sakura gets a 4.33 as her final score. If Figuarts is going to "cheap out" on figures like that, I will cut my losses (get Ken, Akuma, Bison and Guile if they make the last 2)

Cammy: Ow!
Chun Li: THAT hurt!
Ryu: time for the crouch of the wild tiger.
