| Kind | Description |
|---|---|
| Man | Grinning male fighter pilot head and shoulders in the lower centre apron: white teeth bared in a wide grin, tan skin, dark stubble, blue-teal peaked cap with goggles on top, red headband with tails, red jacket, one bare fist raised in front of his chest, framed by yellow-orange explosion cloud |
| Man | Small painted fighter in a cream sleeveless top and white trousers, dark hair, standing in a fighting stance on a yellow triangular panel on the right side of the upper playfield |

A full playfield photographed head-on under glass, dominated by a deep navy-blue starfield sprinkled with small white stars. An orange-and-yellow comet flare with a black-outlined star sweeps in from each lower side edge, framing the centre. Two mirrored triangular clusters of three round pop-bumper caps (dark maroon tops, yellow rims, red housings) sit left and right of a tall dark rectangular centre panel, each cluster backed by a jagged yellow starburst. Two red-and-yellow lightning-bolt arrows angle downward from the bumpers toward the middle, pointing at the logo. The title is a heavy italic comic logo reading 'STREET FIGHTER II' in yellow letters with a red fill and black outline, with 'CHAMPION EDITION' in small white capitals beneath it and a round grey 'World Champion' belt medallion below. The lower playfield shows a grinning male fighter pilot in a red headband, blue-teal peaked cap with goggles, and red jacket, set against a billowing yellow-and-orange explosion. Chrome wire ball guides and ramps snake down both sides, with two yellow-orange triangular slingshots, two flippers with white rubber, and a chrome apron reading 'Gottlieb'.
