M. Bison (2023) Jada Toys Review
General Overview:
Jada’s take on the dictator of Shadaloo brings texture and gravitas,finished in a rich red uniform, layered armor, and a cloth cape that holds shape thanks to internal wire. His presence demands attention.
Accessories & Functionality:
The figure includes two heads (neutral and gritting teeth), fists or claw hands, a striking purple Psycho Power effect, and interchangeable shoulder pads that allow for caped or battle-ready display.
Articulation & Poseability:
With typically smooth articulation (~20 points), Bison can deliver solid stances and hold high kicks—even bulky enough to stand with no support due to sturdy construction.
Head Sculpt & Paint Application:
The head sculpts are sharp, with sculpted cap textures and moulded crests. Though highly detailed, the paint on the angry face’s crest is slightly uneven. Overall, minimal flaws for this price bracket.
Final Thoughts:
M. Bison is a standout villain piece, complete with thoughtful engineering, showpiece accessories, and collectors’ appeal. The gorgeous cape and Psycho Power effect make this one of Jada’s best to-date.
