Series 5, released in early 2011, featured Mauricio \"Shogun\" Rua among its roster, a fighter whose reputation was built across two organizations. Rua came up through PRIDE FC in Japan, where he was one of the most feared light heavyweights on the planet, before transitioning to the UFC and capturing the light heavyweight title in 2010. This figure carries that Pride-era identity as a Chase Piece, a variant that distinguishes it from the standard UFC-branded release in the same series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eChase figures in the Round 5 Ultimate Collector line ran in smaller quantities and were consistently the harder pull at retail. The Pride Chase designation reflects Rua's history with the Japanese promotion and gives the figure a distinct presentation compared to the base Series 5 release. For collectors building a complete Round 5 run, or specifically tracking the chase variants, the Pride-branded Shogun is one of the more notable pulls from the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is the fully PRIDE-branded presentation, not just a sticker variant: the entire card carries PRIDE trade dress front and back, with the figure sculpted mid-scream in blue PRIDE gloves and white Chute Boxe Muay Thai trunks. The card back tells the story collectors remember, Rua winning 12 of his 13 PRIDE bouts including the Middleweight Grand Prix title, and frames it with a photo montage of his wins over Quinton \"Rampage\" Jackson, Akihiro Gono, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and Ricardo Arona. A sealed piece of the PRIDE era from the line that documented it best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"details\"\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mauricio \"Shogun\" Rua\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries \/ Line\u003c\/strong\u003e: UFC Ultimate Collector Series 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdition\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRIDE edition (retailer-listed as the Pride chase piece)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e: Open-mouth scream portrait with mouthpiece, blue PRIDE gloves, white Chute Boxe Muay Thai trunks\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 figurine\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging\u003c\/strong\u003e: Original sealed carded blister, full PRIDE trade dress front and back, hologram sticker on back panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PN 10053\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round 5 (under Zuffa license)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear of Manufacture\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2011\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFranchise\u003c\/strong\u003e: UFC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"disclaimer\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*PHOTO DISCLAIMER:\u003c\/strong\u003e All photos are of the actual items, unless marked as pre-order.
