Exciting news for fans of the iconic arcade game Street Fighter II and diecast collectors, Tomica has released a diecast car that mirrors or strongly resembles the vehicle featured in the legendary car that must be destroyed in one of game’s bonus stages.
Anyone who grew up playing Street Fighter II in the arcades would surly remembers the adrenaline pumping bonus round where players had to destroy a parked car before the timer ran out. It was satisfying, instantly iconic, and not to mention chaotic especially if the other player attacked the other instead of focusing on destroying the car. While the original arcade sprite didn’t carry any official branding, fans have long debated what real world car Capcom used as inspiration. Over the years, the consensus solidified among Street Fighter players, that the car strongly resembles a Toyota Soarer, particularly the early generation models known for their angular lines and headlights.
