Fans who attended the first ever UFC Fan Expo got a chance to see their favorite fighters enshrined in plastic as JAKKS Pacific debuted its first two waves of action figures during the UFC 100 fan extravaganza at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center on July 10 and 11.
JAKKS unveiled to the public Wave 0 and Wave 1 UFC action figures along with two separate UFC Octagon Playsets and new UFC Championship Belts. A Limited Edition 1:500 Chuck Liddell Platinum Edition figurine was also available at the booth for fans to purchase.
Included in the series is current UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar, middleweight champion Anderson Silva, former UFC light heavyweight champions Forrest Griffin and Rampage Jackson as well as the man who started it all, Royce Gracie.
Several of the fighters were in attendance to check out the new figures before they hit retail shelves this Fall and took the time to meet and greet with fans at the JAKKS expo booth.
Among those in attendance were Randy "The Natural" Couture, Wanderlei "The Axe Murderer" Silva, Mauricio "Shogun" Rua, Mike Thomas Brown and Miguel Torres.
JAKKS plans on shipping new waves every other month, featuring at least eight different
fighters along with exclusive figures and assortments available for a suggested Retail Price $9.99.
The 14.5" UFC Octagon playset will be on sale for a suggested retail price of $19.99.
Also available for the true collector is the Official Scale Deluxe UFC Octagon playset, a huge, 30" authentic playset in 1:1 scale with the Deluxe UFC action figures featuring more than 50 pieces, padded posts, foam-polymer mat and removable cage walls for battle access.
The suggested retail price will be $99.99.
You can also own your very own collection of UFC Championship Belts from the UFC, Pride, and WEC for a suggested retail price of $11.99.
