To mark the 25th anniversary of the computer game Street Fighter Capcom will be setting a limited edition chess set. Only 5,000 will be made. It’s a 18″x18″ sandblasted glass chess board and pieces are made silver and pewter-colored resin.
The chess figures themselves include Ryu and M. Bison as Kings, Chun-Li and Juri as Queens, Ken, Guile, Balrog and Vega as Bishops, E. Honda, Blanka, Rolento and Akuma as Knights as well as Dhalsim, Zangief, Sagat and Seth as Rooks. The pawns appear as Ryu’s fist or the Shandaloo winged skull.
Awesome. Wish have enough money ;B
It’s really impressive looking – but do you think it might be over priced?
