UFC Ultimate Collector S14 Cung Le, LE Strikeforce, R5 '13

Cung Le was one of Strikeforce's signature fighters, a San Shou champion whose dynamic striking style and legitimate martial arts credentials made him one of the most visually exciting combatants in the promotion's history. Round 5 captured him in their UFC Ultimate Collector line as a Strikeforce Edition release in Series 14, one of the later entries in a line that set the benchmark for MMA figure collecting through the late 2000s and into the early 2010s. The Strikeforce Edition designation marks this as a distinct variant tied to the promotion Cung Le competed for before Strikeforce was folded into the UFC umbrella.

Round 5's Ultimate Collector figures earned their reputation by delivering recognizable likenesses with collector-grade presentation, and the Series 14 Cung Le is among the more limited releases in the line. Research from the Cardboard Connection's comprehensive Round 5 guide documents the Strikeforce Edition with Cage Hero T-shirt at a run of 750 units, placing it firmly in the short-run tier of the Ultimate Collector catalog.

Series 14 arrived in 2013, toward the end of Round 5's active production run, which gives these later series figures a smaller collector footprint than the earlier waves. For collectors building a complete Strikeforce roster or a focused Round 5 run, the Cung Le Strikeforce Edition is one of the harder pieces to source.

This copy is hand-numbered 489 of 750 on the card back's Limited Edition panel. The figure captures Le in his Strikeforce gear: black and yellow trunks with TCB and Cagehero sponsor marks and blue Strikeforce gloves, with the card bio celebrating the Sanshou specialist's spinning attacks and his knockout-of-the-year candidate right hook against Rich Franklin. Sealed clamshell with the authenticity hologram intact; front and back shown in the photos.
