The outfit looks great.

He looks amazing, I love his design.

The original image is from http://streetfighter.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/featured-ed.jpg and still works.

Thats the thailand stage music isn't it?

 

[Projectjustice]

Im really excited over Ed. Finally another psycho power user! We got enough Shotos!!!

 

[ryan13ts]

Ew, burn it with fire. Give me back teen Ed any day of the week over... that.

My only hope is that his teen form is his alt, otherwise I'm likely not buying him (Unless he's like Gill-incarnate for SFV)

 

[kirblar]

Ed, like Azam and Satsuki already appeared in the SFV story mode, so they even already have their 3D assets and even voice actor:

Ed (SFV):

Ed (let's remember -spoiler- Balrog's ending in SFIV):
https://youtu.be/7ApAYVqj3eM?t=1m31s

Satsuki:
https://youtu.be/EC8WdMh5yh8?t=4m34s

Same can be said for Sean, Abel, Decapre or Byron Taylor. I bet they will be included in the future as playable characters. Decapre and the dolls were even enemies there, you fought them so even have (mostly rehashed from Cammy) in-game animations.

The new female character's silhouette doesn't match Satsuki.

 

[def sim]

Alright, tiny hat man. I'll be looking forward to his story and battle costumes.

 

[cordy]

Ed looks trashy. Damn.

 

[Bowling Pin]

I actually prefer his younger white hoodie design, but I'm still fine with this. He really is Evil Rock Howard, with Bison and Rog as his two dad's instead.

Psycho Buffalooooo~!

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Do you think one example is appropriate evidence for the claim that all the models are bad?

Do you think I'm actually interested in arguing something so subjective?

'Consistent' implies that there's a pattern or uniformity within a group but you've only given one example and it's an optional costume.

right, and imo, the character designs largely suck.

 

[yurinka]

Thats the thailand stage music isn't it?

Yep, seems someone just copied the image from the SF image and got the Thailand stage we already knew for the video. The image comes from streetfighter.com, I posted it above.

The new female character's silhouette doesn't match Satsuki.

Yes, it matches her perfectly. Including stuff like hairstyle, hair length, body shape, hat, shoulder pad, bracelet and katana tsuba details and more.

 

[Neoxon]

They grow up so fast.

Sick outfit, though I'll miss his old Story Mode design.

 

[Ryce]

Yes, it matches her. Even her bracelet and katana details.

It really doesn't, though.

 

[Neoxon]

This image displays more of his youth, I like it.

 

[LakeEarth]

Hopefully his story mode costume will be his white hoodie look, I highly prefer it to this pseudo-Nazi boxer look they gave him.

 

[Neoxon]

Most likely, but I'd imagine that the old outfit barely fits Ed, now.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Ed looks trashy. Damn.

Aside from his hair color he doesn't look like a street fighter character.

 

[Lights and Waves]

Another blonde character. Really.

 

[Ryce]

I think his story costume will be his hoodie and sweatpants all stretched out and torn up, Hulk-style. I feel like his character story will show how he aged so quickly, going from his story mode model to his new one.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Another blonde character. Really.

Count how many blonde characters there are in the roster.

 

[Alchemist]

Looks better but I still can't condone the hat.

 

[Ryce]

Aside from his hair color he doesn't look like a street fighter character.

What does "a Street Fighter character" look like? Ryu, Blanka, Twelve, Remy, and C. Viper could all be from different games.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Another blonde character. Really.

Because of course

 

[KeidaKennedy]

He's so handsome!
And I love his clothing.

 

[BlizzKrut]

He looks pretty cool, I'll be checking him out when he releases.

 

[Skilletor]

I think he looks dope.

I think every SF5 character so far has looked pretty amazing. My only problem with Laura is her outfits, but her character design is great.

 

[Baleoce]

Aside from his hair color he doesn't look like a street fighter character.

His hands and feet look about the right size to me.

 

[Lulubop]

Agreed.

We knew he was Blonde since SF4, but this is somehow breaking news

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Twelve and Remy?

Now that you mention it, he does fit in with the 3rd strike characters Capcom shoved under the rug.

I guess to elaborate, Street Fighter designs are supposed to be obvious. Ryu is a karate fighter, Blanka is a green monster, Viper is Angelina Jolie. Kolin's clothing matches how thick her accent is.

What is Ed supposed to be? An anime cosplayer?

 

[IronLich]

Are you sure this isn't an alternate costume? That's the feeling I'm getting from this outfit.

 

[Gradly]

I would like if they made him slimmer than that, or maybe he transforms and becomes like this as in a special move

 

[MrCarter]

Aside from his hair color he doesn't look like a street fighter character.

What looks like SF character lol

They are "world warriors" for a reason. It could be anyone.

 

[BlizzKrut]

Are you sure this isn't an alternate costume? That's the feeling I'm getting from this outfit.

That's his promotional art (his "wallpaper"), that's his main costume, no doubt.

 

[Lulubop]

What is Ed supposed to be?

He really doesn't tho.

Bison already has a Nazish motif, seems like a theme with psycho power. You come up with the most arbitrary shit to hate on this game. Other than that, he's a Bison body like Abel.

 

[Infernostew]

He looks like a JoJo character. I dig it.

 

[Skilletor]

It's pretty much Bison's outfit.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Yep. He looks like a buff Nazi soldier which fits when you look at who he works for.

 

[LordKasual]

Wait, thats the hoodie kid?

Fuck, i wanted to fight in a hoodie.

I've been waiting for another Psycho Power character...hopefully he's not charge and has some zoning capabilities

 

[Lulubop]

Additionally I've seen a few people say he looks like a Jojo character, which SF borrows HEAVILY from. But nah, he doesn't like look a sf character somehow.

 

[Kade]

Count how many blonde characters there are in the roster.

11 of the 25 released/known characters are blonde. Alex, Birdie, Cammy, Ed, Guile, Karin, Ken, Kolin, Nash, R. Mika and Vega.

 

[robotzombie]

Are you sure this isn't an alternate costume? That's the feeling I'm getting from this outfit.

it perfectly matches his silhouette

 

[MrCarter]

He looks like a JoJo character. I dig it.

At this point JoJo and Street Fighter go hand in hand lol.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

Do you think I'm actually interested in arguing something so subjective?

Guess you should have chosen different phrasing if you didn't want to say some shit, provide "evidence" and then backpedal it immediately as "muh opinion."

Here's the alternate timeline:

You: "I don't like any of the character designs in SFV"

Other people: "ok"

 

[kewlmyc]

Wish they kept the the somewhat scrawny hoodie design. It would have made him stand out from the rest of the cast.

 

[VariantX]

He looks like a JoJo character. I dig it.

Then he absolutely looks like street fighter character!!

 

[Ryce]

What is Ed supposed to be? An anime cosplayer?

It's pretty obvious just by looking at him that he's a member of Shadaloo or some Shadaloo offshoot.

 

[Blueblur1]

He looks like a JoJo character. I dig it.

Which makes sense. Street Fighter already has JoJo influences.

[Jawmuncher]

So did he fuse with Boxer?

 

[lupinko]

Wish they kept the the somewhat scrawny hoodie design. It would have made him stand out from the rest of the cast.

You have the pc version for that.

 

[Rymuth]

If Capcom was smart, they could've done something akin to this thread...drop a picture every day and make it bigger and bigger to build the hype.
