I wondered about this one. What, he was in a fight and then decided to quickly have his picture taken? Evidence of fighting for honor? Why the blood, if it really is blood... It does look like a black eye. I have no idea who he is, but he likes drama :)
He told me he ejected from his fighter at 10-thousand feet with this helmet. I'd keep it around for luck too.

The TLS is the next generation of weapon. Firing an exremely powerful chemical laser, it can destroy mostly anything.
Something I grabbed off of Facebook Marketplace - the S.H. Figuarts Street Fighter Sagat figure.. no packaging or inserts, but complete.
I honestly don't understand what both Bandai AND Storm are doing. The SF license is basically a money making machine, and both of these companies have/had it, but even to this day neither company has anything even close to a full roster, though I guess technically Storm is closer to completion. Both companies do have a Sagat, but from a value proposition perspective Storm destroys what you get from Bandai, even if the sticker price is greater.
Figuarts Sagat comes with very few accessories - you get the figure, two heads, a pair of open palms, a pair of fists, a Tiger Shot effect, a base/stand for said effect with a choice of high or low position, and if the set were complete, a cardboard backdrop.
Size aside, one of the biggest complaints about the figure is the skin tone. It really is strangely orange as compared pretty much any piece of artwork I've ever seen.
The aesthetics of the figure is consistent in that it's a strange combination of anime and official artwork.
The articulation I wouldn't say is any worse than than the other figures in the line, which are generally quite good. Shoulders aren't really equipped to cross, though curiously shoulders can be raised. Sagat features ball joints where the traditional thigh swivels are, so you actually get a bit of play.
The biggest thing that hurts the figure articulation wise is the lack of true extreme lower body articulation. More so than other figures because Sagat actually needs better crouching/knee joints for his crouch poses. A good example would be his Tiger Shot, which isn't even close to to what it ought to be, so much so that Bandai included a stand for the Tiger Shot effect at this particular height.
Paint and Build are the standard Figuarts level

No airs and graces, no marketing polish, just a confident claim or two, performance numbers and a press quote, all on a photocopied sign. Bristol Cars' no-frills promotion of the 2009 Fighter on the window of their High Street Kensington showroom. Their website displays a similar no-nonsense approach.
First flown in 1953, the F-100 Super Sabre was developed from the F-86, and was the world’s first fighter capable of supersonic speed in level flight.
Used widely during the Vietnam War, the North American F-100D was the fighter-bomber version of the F-100 interceptor and first entered service in 1956. The F-100D was equipped with supersonic autopilot, and enlarge fin and rudder, inboard landing flaps and underwing pylons that could carry up to 3,200 kg (7,040 lb) of ordnance.
The Museum’s F-100D-86 s/n 56-3440 entered service on December 19, 1957 and flew 6,159 hours over its 21 year career. The aircraft flew during the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962, was stationed in Japan, and in 1965, moved to Bien Hoa Air Base in South Vietnam. The Museum’s F-100D fought for several years, sustaining damage from ground fire on several occasions. The aircraft is displayed as it appeared during the heaviest fighting during the Tet Offensive of 1968, when it flew for the 531st TFS of the 3rd TFW. In 1970 #440 returned to the U.S. and flew in active duty until transferred to the Michigan Air Guard in 1972. On August 8, 1978, the aircraft was retired and transferred to the National Air and Space Museum.
