Storm Collectibles previews Jin Kazama action figure from Tekken 7

Adding another fan favorite character to the line-up of their growing roster of Tekken 7 action figures, Storm Collectibles has released some preview photos of their upcoming Jin Kazama action figure on their Facebook page. The character - a mainstay of the franchise since Tekken 3, has been long awaited and sought after by fans and players who know the character's lineage in the long running Bandai Namco fighting game series .

As the son of Kazuya Mishima and Jun Kazama, Jin was originally trained by his grandfather Heihachi Mishima in the Mishima-Ryu style of Karate and sought to avenge his mother's death at the hand of Ogre in Tekken 3. After defeating Ogre he was betrayed by Heihachi, and the Devil Gene he inherited from his father Kazuya awoke inside of him. He renounced his Mishima heritage and adopted Traditional Karate as his fighting style, however events led to him becoming the leader of the Mishima Zaibatsu for a time after defeating his great grandfather Jinpachi Mishima in battle. That led to a war between him and his resurrected father Kazuya, which engulfed the world in chaos to achieve his true goal of defeating the demon Azazel. However Jin's sacrifice to defeat the demon only led to Heihachi reclaiming the Zaibatsu - and the Mishima saga seemingly came to a front during the events of Tekken 7.

You can check out more pictures of the upcoming Jin Kazama action figure at Storm Collectibles Facebook page and pre-order it online here.
