New Street Fighter
× Pocky
Artwork by Shinkiro
|
|
|
|
 Capcom
director Takayuki Nakayama recently shared some brand new Street
Fighter ×
Pocky promotional artwork on social media featuring several
well-known Street Fighter veterans. The new 2022 Street Fighter ×
Pocky character illustrations are by a legendary fighting game
artist that most FG fans will immediately recognize... Toshiaki Mori —
A.K.A. Shinkiro! Two years ago in December 2020
(almost to the day), Capcom revealed promo art by Tamio to
promote upcoming Pocky products. The first Shinkiro artwork featuring Ryu and
Chun-Li (directly below) appears to take inspiration from Tamio's original 2020
illustration, with the characters appearing in similar poses (sharing
Pocky, of course). 
|
The
image (directly above) appears to contain all of Shinkiro's 2022 Street
Fighter character artwork for the latest Pocky promotion. These new
character illustrations and "Pocky K.O." promotional events also
appeared at recent Japanese expos and live events. The Street Fighter × Pocky
collaboration was first revealed back in Winter 2019, with Street
Fighter characters appearing on several box designs for the popular
Japanese chocolate snack by Ezaki Glico.
[UPDATE]
 Added 2
new illustrations (Sagat & E. Honda and Dhalsim & Zangief),
completing this set by Shinkiro. Thanks once again to Takayuki Nakayama
(@TakaNakayama)
for sharing these amazing illustrations via Twitter. Please stay tuned on Fighters
Generation for continued coverage.
