Description
E. Honda – the sumo wrestler magnet from Street Fighter with the fastest hundred punches on the roster.
Edmond Honda is the sumo wrestler from Street Fighter II — the Japanese wrestler who represented sumo in a global martial arts franchise, with his kabuki-painted face, sumo wrestler's physique, and the Hundred Hand Slap that made any approach a miscalculation. Honda was the Street Fighter II character with the most visually distinctive move — the hundred fists at impossible speed were simultaneously comical and devastating. This collectible E. Honda magnet, compatible with Lego, represents the sumo wrestler.

The legacy of E. Honda: the sumo wrestler who made Japan more specific in Street Fighter.
