Has there been any talk from Storm about figures from the modern MK games? MK9 Scorpion is easily my favorite and I can't decide if I should go ahead and get this one or wait and hope they get to MK9.

The face mask really is too big. I wonder if a head swap is possible. I really think there is going to be a big difference in the body size of the new ninja and the old ones.

It also reminds me that we get alternate heads and fire effects with that one.
The skull mask thing with this one does not work. It looks goofy smiling. We needed more effects with this one too. Now,I need a Scorpion and this guy will do that just fine I guess. I would almost wait for another Scorpion like the prototype we saw once upon a time. Last year I think. I am ok with not getting the original Scorpion, I like the variety of the figures. I have three of the old ninjas and I will fill the Scorpion and Sub-zero slots with different character variations. |

Yeah it looks way off, I don't know what their idea was. The skull mask looks ridiculous. It should've been swappable heads and not just the mask. |

Yeah. My subzero arm socket popped just moving it to do the classic “hadoken” pose. I used 2 agent epoxy to fix it, and add strength to the joint. Plus... that ball joint ain’t loose and not going anywhere... minus... no flex to pop out the arm for fatalities.

McFarlane is making MK11 Scorpion, not 9.

The alt portrait looks ridiculous. It looks nothing like the select screen image. If you want to see that done right, check out the PSC deluxe statue:

I'll only buy a redone version of Scorpion and Sub-Zero, that's it.
They should do female characters next after this. |

I do own Noob. That is the reason I don't mind not having the first Scorpion release. I just hope the heads are interchangeable. Then I could use the skull and fire effect.

The original figure they did was MK2. It has the knee pads and shin guards from 2, it has the bands on the biceps like in 2, and it has the slotted mask. It does include the cloth mask as an option but everything else is MK2.

The complaint I have is that they have publicly shown prototypes of all these characters and then decide to release MK3 Scorpion ahead of those mentioned without a colored or uncolored prototype being shown until this announcement. I know ninjas sell, but there are 5 characters from MK1 and more than double that for MK2 (the most popular of the games) they haven't produced figures for, so it's just a bit annoying even if it makes business sense to just produce recolors as much as possible. |

Like most everyone else, I'm sick of the MK ninja theme from Storm, but I'd totally pick up Rain and Ermac in their proper UMK3 costumes. Glad I skipped their first figures because I'm sure Storm will make them using this new UMK3 Scorpion sculpt, and hopefully they'll include the old accessories and/or newer, better ones.
Are Cyrax, Human Sub-Zero and Scorpion the only reveals from the MK3/UMK3/MKT era so far? Hoping to see Kabal at some point. |

Characters we haven't seen that I'd personally like to see are Quan Chi, Jax (MK2 or 3), Sheeva and a Shang Tsung myself. Kano would be nifty as well...especially if you include a bloody heart accessory. As for other MK3/UMK/MKT figures that have been revealed...Sektor and Robot Smoke were also shown off. Lui Kang has also been displayed before as well, which could pass for either MK3 or MK2 since he wore the same exact outfit in both games, with only a change in appearance in hairstyle. |

Peeps, nothing has been cancelled. Toy making is an arduous task, especially if it requires licensor approval, which MK does.
Storm is notorious slow as it is, so I’m certain they are trying to get everything out as fast as their production schedule will allow it. Besides, they are super quick compared to some others... Mondo teased He-Man 1/6 scale back in 2015, and its only now found its way onto shelves.
