These new Super Street Fighter IV action shots give you the best-yet view of the action in some of the new SSFIV stages. 

The eagle-eyed will have caught a few snippets of these stages floating around, but now we're getting down and dirty.  Head HERE for all 20 new shots, and hit the jump for a few notes on what's lurking in those backgrounds...

In the new Metro City background, you can spot Hugo, as well as a gigantic, shirtless Mike Haggar statue, constructed by your Metro City mayor, Mike Haggar (Mayors are always doing this kind of thing). 

The new African stage is one of my visual favorites, not only because of all the crisp lighting, but for the background action as well, where you fight during an eclipse and can knock over hippos and be taunted by meercats. 

The Korean stage is a riot of colors, with young and old turning out to check out the fight, and includes my favorite new spazzy background character of all time!

India is also full of action, with plenty of cows and the wildest haircuts in Street Fighter background history, as well as what just could be a cameo appearance from Dhalsim's not-obviously-stretchy wife, Sari. 

After seeing Seth beaten up by so many aspiring Street Fighters, Seth's S.I.N. laboratory has seen better days, and your fight will take place as the entire base is on the verge of a catastrophic meltdown. 

Once again, the full gallery is here, so be sure to check out all the new shots.
