Those are the Pride figures, not the UFC. A few are in the UFC now but not many.

I know! My question was if anybody knows if there'll be UFC action figures any time soon? If any company is gonna make them?

Because I know there were some old PrideFC and K1 toys in the market before..

It was 100% a Japanese thing. They were never marketed here. I believe that Dana's commitment to keeping the pro wrestling elements out of the UFC would extend to not wanting action figures made. Maybe someday he'll prove me wrong, but I'm willing to bet that there's currently no plan for UFC toys in the works.

Round 5 MMA Action Figures Almost a Reality



MMA Fans, this Christmas in you may have all of your favorite MMA fighters in your stocking. Round 5, the makers of MMA action figures has finally reached the final stages of their development of the MMA Action Figures. It looks like Matt Hughes, Randy Couture, Quinton Rampage Jackson and Tito Ortiz will all of their own figures.

Matt Hughes just posted some pictures of the new figures to his website. The pictures that he posted are at the late stages of a prototype. The major thing lacking from these figures is sponsorship information posted on the fighter’s shorts. Round 5 did an amazing job with these figures… The style they choose is just awesome.. Check them out:

Kinda weird that there's no Chuck. He seems like such an obvious choice.

The only problem is the shipping. Since they're made in Canada I got about ~$16 shipping to the US. Good news is that they should be coming to the US gift store Spencer Gifts soon. But, yeah the price of the figures is quite good! Hopefully, I won't get weird looks when I put Randy up in my office at work...

edit: Screw these figures, after scouring eBay I want the "Jenna Jameson Doll Tito Ortiz Action Figure UFC NEW" figure!!!

I just discovered the same damn thing! $16.99 for the Rampage action figure I was going to buy cost an additional $17.75 to ship to California! Outrageous! I went on Amazon.com and it was nearly the same - $14 for shipping. I'm with you, I'll wait until I find it at Spencer gifts for $17-20. Unreal.
