I’ve only seen one UFC figure, of Houston Alexander, in stores since these started wave 0 started hitting stores recently. I like that they’re adding more articulation and added some new sculpts, however I think they’ve got to improve their heads – Alexander’s face scan was fine, but his cranium was just humongous.

For some reason I associated the new UFC line from JAKKS Pacific as a 2010 product, but they’re reporting on their Facebook page that Wave “0” is at Toys R Us and should be at Wal-Mart this upcoming week. I’m looking forward to new sculpts, but Brock Lesnar and some others are reminiscent of the WWE Deluxe Aggression torsos, and look very odd atop those peg legs.

Our UFC action figures, belts and play sets are finally here! Wave 0 action figures, Championship Belts and the Real Scale Octagon Ring just hit shelves at Toys”R”Us today and slated to hit shelves at Wal-Mart next week. Check it out!
I had no idea that JAKKS Pacific even had a UFC Facebook page until folks at Critical Mess started talking about it. JAKKS is definitely making the most of social marketing, announcing the second wave of their UFC line exclusively on Facebook.
I’m not a UFC fan, but I am glad to see JAKKS move into super-articulated territory on their deluxe figures. I hope Mattel takes note and goes super-articulated on WWE.
