res_booth.jpg - 11717 Bytes Ohio-based ReSaurus Company were strutting their stuff at the Mid-Ohio-Con, showing off the company's latest release: Street Fighter! These massive, fully-poseable action figures have just recently hit stores and represent a true labor of love for the ReSaurus staff.

The Street Fighter figures are available in both their Player 1 and Player 2 colors schemes, and judging from the reactions at the convention both seem to be just as popular!

The ReSaurus gang also brought along carded samples of the soon-to-be released Sonic Adventures line, as well as test shots from The Tenth and Magic the Gathering.

Commanding attention, however, was the massive 2-up sculpt for Sagat from the next series of Street Fighter due for release in 2000.

2-ups of the the Street Fighter Junior (Spring 2000) assortment was also shown

The Monkeyhead has become a fixture for the ReSaurus crew when on the road and it has literally traveled the world over. It is something of a convention tradition to have your picture taken kissing the Monkeyhead.

Lives were changed at the Mid-Ohio-Con just by being in the presence of the Monkeyhead.

Sonic the Hedgehog
Tails (aka Miles Prower)
Knuckles the Echidna
The 3-3/4" Sonic Adventures line is ReSaurus' next big action figure release, and is on it's way to store shelves now. There are 3 figures in the first assortment: Sonic, Tails and Knuckles, each mainstays of the long-running video game series that began back in the 1980's on the Sega Genesis system (as wells as the Sega CD and 32X systems).

Now Sonic's star is on the rise again thanks to the September launch of the Sega Dreamcast system. Sonic Adventures was one of the initial games available at launch and Sonic is ready to reclaim his post as company mascot for Sega.

With all the attention the Dreamcast, and Sonic Adventures, has been getting from both the videogame press and mainstream media this new toyline looks to be extremely popular. As fast as Sonic is, expect him to zip right off store shelves!
