Instant buy. Love me some cyber ninjas. Hopefully this drops in 2019.

That said, what's the bet we get a cyber sub zero in MK3 style as a con exclusive. If we can get Rain and Ermac in MK2 outfits despite not appearing until MK3 then anything is possible. I'm also betting that we get Chameleon and/or Tremor in MK2 or MK3 style as con exclusives.

Yeah Storm usually does 1-2 MK exclusives the last few big Cons, so I'm sure they'll do something for SDCC.

This looks good. Still need to pickup Baraka but will get this at some point as well.

As far as con exclusives, you would think since they always have 2-3 they will again.

But I would think it would be things we have seen already. Prolly the MK3 Sub Zero, Mileena & Kitana?

Someone needs to inform Storm Co how previews should work lol. Everytime it never fails they release a teaser preview image, just to release the full details a few hours later. LIke ummm wut? Release the preview a few days before or something.

Anyways minus my complaining, this does look awesome! That net effect just brings back too many memories. I will be getting this for sure.

You know how everyone bitches about how Storm milks the MK ninja mold? You won't hear me bitching if they start milking the MK cuber ninja mold, that's for sure. Cyran, Sektor, Smoke, Cyber Sub-Zero...give me 'em all!

Good point, lol. It's like the current movie trend of releasing a 10-second teaser trailer for a 30-second teaser trailer.

give it 12 months and then the bitching will start, and I'll be one of them, as well.

Why stop at only the cyborgs that were in the game? Noob-Smoke Combo pack where they are both Cyborgs, Cyber Rain, Cyber Reptile. Milk that mold for all it's worth!

I pre-ordered that new Scorpion...so you won't be hearing any complaining from me. That is of course...if he and the Sub-Zero they showed are one offs. I need Reptile and Rain from UMK3/Trilogy dammit!

Can't say that I'm a fan of the Cyber Ninja crew (I always found their popularity to be rather aggravating considering how top tier they were in many of the games. Those bomb traps Cyrax had in MK9 were infuriating...) but I'd gladly take a Cyber Reptile if they ever featured him. I was actually bummed he never became a playable character outside his appearance in the challenge tower in MK9.

Looks good. Not a big fan of MK3, but it does look impressive.

BBTS put up an exclusive version of the figure that comes with an add on to the head for the helicopter fatality. I guess I'll be ordering everyone of these from them if they're getting exclusive parts.

I only saw because they sent an email with it this morning, I was like, I already preordered this? They should've really announced at the time of the other release. It was only a few days ago and would've saved some people's trouble from switching preorders if they want it.

I actually totally forgot BBTS got the exclusive bloody Baraka, which wouldn't be too unusual except it comes with exclusive green blood parts. I didn't think of that at all as something going forward.

As an aside, anyone else bothered by this price creep now on the MK figures? I know Storm's Street Fighter figures have been pricier but Scorpion and SZ were $49.99 like 2 years ago? MK3 Scorpion and Baraka are $70 and the regular Cyrax is $75.

Yeah, the prices have been slowly creeping. Reptile even was only $50-$55 and I snagged Ermac from Gamestop for $55 too. I don't really see much extra they are offering to justify the price bump. Maybe they knew they were going to pump out a lot of multiples with that specific mold so they kept prices lower with those ones... or maybe they know people will be most likely willing to pay the extra price to keep their collection growing.

They had the BBTS exclusive Rain, Smoke, and Ermac as well. They were the "bloody" editions. But those exclusives were priced nice at 49.99 each.

Honestly I think I'm fine with just the standard version. Might wait for a price drop though or look around first instead of dropping $70.

Holy mother of fuck. Greatest accessory EVER, aside from the teddy bear that NECA's Ultimate FvJ Jason is coming with.

I don't know...that Easter egg loaded Pizza Box that came with the SDCC Turtles was pretty epic...122 1/8!

On the topic of Storm's prices creeping up...it's not just Storm. It's been a trend of the industry these past few years as plastics and production have just become more expensive overall. For example, NECA's figures have jumped from 19.99 to around 29.99, (depending on the line,) and Hasbro experimented with a higher price point on their Marvel Legends with the 10 year Studios Line, which saw the figure prices jump to about 25 bucks a figure, with no build a figure pieces.

So does the bbts cyrax come with the regular non fatality hair piece too?
Or is the bbts a permanent fatality figure?

That's actually a good question. The pictures doesn't make that clear, but I can't imagine that it wouldn't have the non-fatality hair piece as well.

I’m ok with the price increase if that means the materials quality increases. My subzero broke easily at the shoulder with just a basic arm rotation. If it was a $9 Hasbro figure, no prob. $50? Unacceptable. I preordered some of their “new body and joints” figures from street fighter, but if those feel the same as the scorpion/subzero, I’ll be done with the line. Real improvements are welcomed... “New Coke” marketing is not.
