“This is Round 5’s largest UFC Fan Expo® release yet,” says Lau. “Our exclusives have sold out for three years straight, so when the collectors demanded more, we were happy to oblige with a stacked lineup of former and current champions.”
Round 5’s UFC Fan Expo® exclusive figures include:
Anderson Silva (UFC 117) -- Featuring UFC championship belt and signature Silver Star walkout gi from his epic win over Chael Sonnen at UFC 117. Only 1000 individually numbered units ever produced.

Figures will be available on a first-come, first served basis. Lineups will form at 9 am, with the first products going on sale at 10am each day of the Expo.
