Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers Cammy 1/12 Scale Action Figure Review
A Fan’s Perspective
Let’s get something straight, Street Fighter holds a nostalgic corner of my heart. Growing up, my quarters often found their way into Street Fighter II arcade machines at the local Circle K. While I wouldn’t call myself a diehard fan, those fleeting moments of glory—usually ending after five matches—left a lasting impression. So, when I got my hands on the Cammy 1/12 Scale Action Figure by Jada Toys, I was intrigued. Could a casual fan like me appreciate this figure as much as the seasoned pros who’ve been eagerly following this line?
The short answer: absolutely.
Sculpt and Design
Jada Toys has done an excellent job of taking Cammy from the pixelated world of the arcade to a three-dimensional masterpiece. There’s a distinct retro animation vibe here, almost like a love letter to the 90s aesthetic.
Cammy’s signature costume is faithfully recreated, right down to the detailed camouflage on her legs. The paint application is crisp and clean, with no noticeable smudges or sloppiness. The sculpt is well-balanced, giving her an athletic yet graceful look. Even her hair has ports for swapping between styles—an unexpected but delightful feature that adds to her versatility.
Though I usually lean toward 1/10 scale figures, this 1/12 rendition doesn’t feel undersized. It strikes a perfect balance between playability and display-worthy detail.
Articulation
Here’s where the fun factor truly shines. Cammy is loaded with articulation, allowing for dynamic poses that reflect her fast-paced fighting style. Whether you’re setting her up mid-kick, mid-punch, or even mid-body slam, this figure delivers.
That said, there’s a minor drawback: her upper legs and thighs can get a bit gappy in certain poses. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s worth noting. Even so, the overall range of motion more than makes up for this small hiccup.
Accessories
Jada didn’t skimp on the extras. Cammy comes with two interchangeable heads, one neutral and one screaming, along with fists, chopping hands, and a kick effect part. While the expressions are well-executed, I do wish they leaned a bit more into her in-game personality. That said, the accessories provide plenty of options for customization, ensuring she can strike just the right pose for your collection.
Value
At under $30, this figure punches well above its weight. The combination of detailed sculpting, solid articulation, and thoughtful accessories makes it an excellent choice for both casual fans like me and dedicated collectors alike.
Final Thoughts
The Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers Cammy 1/12 Scale Action Figure is a knockout in every sense of the word. Jada Toys has delivered a product that’s accessible, affordable, and packed with enough charm to satisfy fans at every level.
Whether you’re reliving arcade memories or diving into the line for the first time, this figure is a must-have. And if this is what Jada has in store for the rest of the line, I’d say we’re in for a treat.
