Street Fighter Customs Minimates


Recommended Posts

I made an advanced search but found nothing, so here we go: one of my goals is to complete the main characters of Street Fighter II. I only have 4 and need to buy the others but still need 8 characters that were never released.

Ryu / Ken / Akuma / Sagat

Guile / Chun Li / Cammy / M. Bison / Zangief

Blanka / Dhalsim / Balrog / Vega / E. Honda / T. Hawk / Fei Long / Dee Jay

So, I looked at Minimate Database and started to find the best figures to make the customs, which I got these partial results below. And now I need your help to find the best pieces for each of these fellows please.

I already have Steve from Street Fighter Vs Tekken to Balrog, the others minimates I still need to think and buy later.

I'm trying to pickup the most complete base to use in more then 1 custom to reduce the costs (the shipping costs to Brazil are f***ing insane).

So, any idea?

It looks like you've out a lot of effort in so far, with pretty good results.

For Blanka might a bulked up hulk be better as a base? I seem t remember him being pretty big.

I know Phoenix, Ms. Marvel and the Star Trek Mirror Mirror mates have sashes like Vega.

Very excited to see the results!

Barbarian Hulk has a skull necklace, might be a bit much for Dhalsim, though.

Ryu's tattered sleeves might work for Balrog, although you;d have to trim off the bottom and the belt sash.

You might even be able to modify it for T. Hawk, but don't forget Bruce's denim vest.

Sorry I didn't link to images, I tried to imbed them and it didn't work for me. Not sure why my browser does not like this forum any more.

For Vega's hair, maybe Walking Dead's Alice?

No need to apologize, you helped me a lot so far! And the hair looks perfect!

For Dhalsim, have you considered repainting Mr. Fantastics extendo arms?

Also, for E. Honda, perhaps IM3's Mandarin hair without the beard?

As for DeeJay, perhaps Wolfsbane's wolf hair with the rat tail?

For Dhalsim, I didn't. I prefer him regular but is a great option.

For E. Honda and DeeJay, your suggestions looks perfect too!

For Vega's claw, I would try one of the GI Joe Storm Shadow claws (tekagi):

I compared one minimate with a joe and the size of the claw in the picture looks bigger than needed. An option is use Wolverine's claws with a Street Fighter's glove.

Thank you all for the help! I can't do the digital assembly now but will do asap!

Recipes and assembly updated!

Balrog and DeeJay remains the same. All the others were updated and Dhalsim will use various parts of what's left as he'll be made by decal. Here's the minimates I chose based on your help:

Rufus Street Fighter X Tekken Series 2 http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=1600&n=Rufus

Julia Street Fighter X Tekken Series 2 http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=1601&n=Julia

After the assembly they'll need some trim, epoxy and paint of course.

What do you think?
