BODY: Fighting game fans heading to Chiba next month have another reason to pack extra cash. GRAPHT, the lifestyle-goods brand run by peripheral maker MSY, has announced a new lineup of collaboration items based on Capcom's Street Fighter 6, timed to coincide with Tokyo Game Show 2026.
The headline draws are mini figures of two fan favorites: Akuma, the Satsui no Hado-wielding icon who arrived as SF6's Year 1 closer, and Ed, the boxing prodigy who has become a staple of the game's competitive roster. Both characters carry serious tournament pedigree, making them natural choices for collectors who also grind ranked matches online.
The merchandise will get an early, in-person launch at Tokyo Game Show 2026, which opens to the public on September 17 at Makuhari Messe. For anyone who can't make the trip, GRAPHT plans a follow-up online sale beginning in early October, so the items won't be locked behind event-exclusive walls — a welcome move for the game's substantial overseas fanbase.
GRAPHT has steadily built out its gaming-collaboration catalog, and its SF6 tie-ins slot neatly into a broader push to pair Capcom's flagship fighter with everyday carry goods and desk-worthy collectibles rather than one-off novelties.
The insider take
Timing a merch reveal to TGS is a well-worn playbook in Tokyo, but it works because Makuhari's show floor doubles as a testing ground: brands watch which figures fly off the tables before committing to larger production runs for the October online drop. Akuma and Ed are telling picks — Akuma sells on legacy nostalgia, while Ed reflects how much SF6's newer cast has embedded itself in Japan's arcade and esports scene. Expect GRAPHT to gauge demand at the booth, then scale up whatever moves fastest, a pattern that has quietly defined how Japanese licensors approach game merchandise in the SF6 era.
