LEON // SHORYUKEN by Fools Paradise Smashes Mario and Street Fighter together in a Pop Culture Uppercut!

Fools Paradise is stepping back into the arcade and coming out swinging with LEON // SHORYUKEN (say it in the video game voice), a bold pop culture mashup that smashes a Mario-esque Type character together with Street Fighter’s Ken in that unmistakable Fools Paradise style. It’s playful, slightly irreverent, and somehow still feels premium and display-ready all at once. If you grew up bouncing between platformers and arcade fighters, this one is going to hit you right in the muscle memory.

Standing approximately 328mm tall, which works out to about 12.9 inches, LEON // SHORYUKEN brings serious shelf presence. The sculpt leans into exaggerated proportions with that oversized head and compact, power-stance body, frozen mid-Shoryuken with fists up and attitude dialed in. The details really sell it… battle-worn gloves, textured red gi with frayed edges, a tied black belt, and that unmistakable blond hair sculpted with dynamic movement. It’s cartoon nostalgia colliding with tournament-ready intensity.

Crafted from high-quality Vinyl and PVC, the figure has the kind of finish collectors expect from Fools Paradise at this level. The paint application adds depth and personality, keeping the character playful while still delivering a premium feel. This isn’t just a mashup for laughs, it’s a fully realized designer collectible that balances humor and craftsmanship. LEON // SHORYUKEN is limited to just 199 pieces worldwide, making it a tight run for fans of both gaming culture and high-end vinyl art. Each piece includes an individually numbered certificate card, reinforcing its exclusivity. The figure is priced at $388, and that includes free shipping, which definitely softens the blow a bit. This is a pre-order item with an estimated ship window in the 4th Quarter of 2026, so patience will be part of the combo move.

For collectors who appreciate clever crossovers and limited edition statement pieces, this one feels like a finishing move. Fools Paradise has a knack for remixing pop icons in a way that feels fresh instead of forced, and LEON // SHORYUKEN keeps that streak alive. Grab one up HERE right now via pre-order!
