News on Wave 3 & 4 of Jakks Pacific UFC action figures
This news comes straight from the horse’s mouth – the horse being Enrique Ruvalcaba of Jakks Pacific, who we spoke with some time ago about the first wave of the UFC figures. You can view his original post at http://www.mmafigs.com/blogs/ and keep track of the latest news from Jakks regarding their UFC line. In the meantime, here is what Enrique had to write recently about what to expect next:
“Hey guys,
I’m getting a lot of feedback that you guys need more info! I love it. I am here for you. You want more, just ask and I will provide…
Quick update – UFC figures #0 and #1 should be in stores now. All figures. I know that Kendall Grove and Miguel Torres are tough to find because they shipped out a bit late, but the full assortments for each should be out now. And, don’t forget about those “First 100″ chasers 
As you know our belts and basic Octagon playset should also be out in stores now. Coming very soon: The Official Scale Deluxe Octagon playset should be hitting stores in about a week or 2. It’s a bit pricey (rising costs), but it is very cool (if I do say so myself ) and would highly recommend for you guys.
Now the fun stuff. You heard it hear first.
UFC Belts #2 – Will include the UFC Championship belt again from series #1 + the Ultimate Ultimate belt and the Pride Grand Prix! What do you think?
UFC Deluxe Figures #2 – Check out the pics! What do you think?
UFC Deluxe Figures #3 – It’s official. Here is the full list of characters: Randy Couture, Tito Ortiz, BJ Penn, Jon Fitch, Mark Coleman (Legends Pack), Shogun Rua (Pride Pack), Karo Parysian, Thiago Silva.
UFC Deluxe Figures #4 – Still finalizing the assortment, but I’m feeling quite giving right now and don’t mind sharing some plans with you. If everything goes well, I think you can expect the likes of Wanderlei Silva and Rich Franklin. Oh and maybe even KS?
Send me comments…
-Enrique”
I am excited that they are going to make the Ultimate Ultimate belt, which for newer fans was a tournament of champions in the golden age of UFC essentially (although not all the champs always came back for it) and the belt was pretty sweet looking. Plus, we are going to get Randy Couture, Tito Ortiz, BJ Penn, Wanderlei Silva and the mysterious “KS”. Whose initials could that be? More importantly, will it come with a bread accessory? If you have not checked out our video review of Wave 0 of the UFC figures, check out the vid below? Any collectors here who have bought these yet?
