Man, the shit I used to rent when I was younger. Guess I picked up this one because I liked Cheetos, and those animated Chester Cheetah commercials.

I used to subscribe some kind of Cheetos Club mail newsletter when I was a kid, back in '95 or so, and they were actually giving out Kirby's Avalanche copies for free! It was awesome.

They have a short confrontation before Toki challenges Raoh. But it was really short, an excuse to Toki paralyzes Ken and fight against Raoh without interruptions. The cover could be more "authentic" if it was Ken vs Souther, Jagi or even Raoh.
