Teased almost a year ago in the 2024 Wrap-Up video, the standalone Final Fight Sprite Showcase video is here! There’s also a site update to go along with it.
Custom Sprites – Final Fight:
– main gallery: a lady audience member from the US arcade bezel art. I’ve had a modified version of her pop up in a few videos, and she’ll be in a few more. These have been added to the main and solo galleries:
– Abigail: starts his new solo sub-gallery with an all-new idle sprite (part FF, part SFV)
– Rolento: scratch-made SFA2 ending pose, like the SFA2 edit I made long ago.
– Mike Haggar: finally made a Final Fight 3 outfit version of the FF1 idle sprite, and updated the FF1 sprite in the original outfit.
– Guy: Final Fight 3 version of Guy’s ‘arms crossed’ win pose.
– Poison and Roxy: updated the “back turned” pose and added a lot of outfit variations, including SF III, SFIV, and SFV.
– Bred, Dug, Jake, Simons: all-new scratch-made low idle sprite
All new custom sprites were added to the GFX Generators, which I used to make the screenshot-looking graphics earlier in the post.
And now, our featured presentation: the 2025 Final Fight Sprite Showcase!
Many of the old clips have been updated and new ones have been added, including character-focused displays for Mike Haggar and Poison, a new work .GIF for the 2021 Haggar sprite, and a taste of some post Final Fight 1 stuff. Working on those single-character displays for game characters in the same way I do them for the Superhero videos makes me want to try some short single-character game showcases in the future, and I’ll make sure some of the other Final Fight series characters get them.
Next week: a toy section update with new pics added to the toy section, starring the Marvel Legends Punisher/Nick Fury two-pack.
The following week: the 2025 Wrap-Up!
It’s the birthday of this website, but the presents are for you! No, you can’t exchange them at the store if they don’t fit. First, thank you for visiting the site, whether you’ve been stopping by since the Tripod and Angelfire years or if this is your first time. It’s fun to make these things, but it’s even more fun when people other people enjoy it. But you know what? Instead of doing the usual thing with shots from the generator, I’ve got a short video with most of the sprites in it.
Custom Sprites:
– Captain Commando: all-new sprites of Captain Commando (1991 design), Carol, Brenda, Wooky, Eddy, Dick.
– Final Fight: Eliza (a.k.a. Elissa) and Mary from Final Fight 2
– Mega Man: original Mega Man robot master lineup is completed with new sprites of Cut Man, Guts Man, and Ice Man.
– Street Fighter: Kimberly
– DC Comics: Green Lantern Hal Jordan
– Marvel Comics: Shadowcat/Kitty Pryde
– Music: Wu-Tang Killer Bees
Mini-logos:
– Capcom: Street Fighter 6 cutscene style logos for Kimberly, Dee Jay, Juri, and Damnd
– Atlus: Atlus
– Marvel Comics: Shadowcat
– Music: Wu-Tang Clan
Custom Sprite Packs: (edit: 2023 July 22) Kitty Pryde and Shadowcat added to the X-Men CotA name graphics pack.
The high amount of new Capcom items is making up for the fact that I planned to do a bigger Capcom anniversary update a while back, but I had to concentrate on commission work. As usual, the new custom sprites and mini-logos are available to use in the GFX image generators
ToyBoss: A few new pics have been added, including that brand new side-scroller legend you see off to the side. Last year’s anniversary update featured a pic of my then-new Tyris Flare figure from Storm Collectibles and this update just happens to parallel that event with my new Gilius Thunderhead figure. I lucked out and caught one of the last sets on sale from Entertainment Earth, the online store where I got some of the luckiest finds of my rebuilt collection. Storm Collectibles is now exclusive to BigBadToyStore and you can find their Golden Axe line (and other Golden Axe items) here. Entertainment Earth still has one “Not Mint” Gilius left for $96.53 and free shipping, but it probably won’t be in stock for long. I also managed to get another figure I’ve wanted for years but aftermarket prices usually kept me away, until I found an incomplete one for a decent price: Sodom! It may have been a Street Fighter figure from SOTA, but we all know Sodom comes from the Final Fight series. I’ll probably have to customize a crest for his helmet and get a spare pair of swords so he can reach his full boss potential.
There’ll be more updates to the ToyBoss section soon because I need to update a few roster pics and my current customized figure project is about halfway done. I also got a new digital camera (on sale, of course) that won’t immediately murder its battery after being on for more than 8 minutes, so I’ll be having fun with that, too.
I mentioned a while back that I’ll have to rewrite a lot of code on the site to get it ready for the updated Dreamhost servers, and that’s going to be my main focus for a while. My hard drive has copies of the old and new code versions of the site running in two different XAMPP installs, which complicates adding new things to the online (and old) version of this site. So while site updates will be limited as I work on the new version of the site, I’m going add more things to the ScrollBoss YouTube channel on the side. Some areas may temporarily disappear when the site upgrade starts in August, so be sure to check out, enjoy, and right-click save what you want before then.
