'Hasbro Pulse,' in collaboration with CAPCOM, unveiled the 'Crimson Hawk Ranger' action figure inspired by the 'Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.' The Crimson Hawk Ranger is a cartoon character inspired by Ryu, the protagonist of the 'Street Fighter' franchise, which is also owned by CAPCOM.
This action figure features style nods to Ryu, such as the large red gloves, the red headband, and the black belt. The Crimson Hawk Ranger figurine also boasts 20 points of articulation that allow the character to be set in a variety of different poses. To make the poses even more accurate, the figure comes with swappable hands, a sturdy stand, and blast-effect accessories for simulating attacks.
The Crimson Hawk Ranger figurine is available now from Hasbro Pulse at an MSRP of $33.99 USD.
