Kabal looks like he stepped outta a bad 70’s acid trip. Honestly id like to see NEW characters like mileena, kenji, shiva, stryker, sonya, jax and cyrax, hot just constant rehashes and re-releases of the same figs.
I mean its nice to have a classic spawn and the batman who laughs looks better than the original version but kabal was unnecessary as hes still peg warming damn near everywhere i go.

Spawn looks nice with that design on the Throne body.
I like the color variants as I feel they are very appropriate for this line. I wish they'd do the old costumes that were introduced by the younger versions of these characters. Put it on like a Booster Gold/Blue Beetle body and go to town on variant colors. Same with Cyrax. BWL.......keep DC characters in DC Multiverse. We need a Firegod Lui Kang ,Shang Tsung, Jax, Kung Lao........40 other characters later..........and Stryker even though he wasn't in this specific game. |

This new Spawn looks amazing. Couldn't ask for a more faithful recreation of that first line of spawn figures in fully articulated glory!! Instant buy!! I've grown tired of the overly textured look they've gone with for all the new Spawn figures so this is a breath of fresh air.

How is this a Mortal Kombat wave? This line has devolved into a DC and Spawn sub-line instead of focusing on MK characters.

Christ, this line has devolved into repaints and an extra Spawn line with of course McFarlane's Bread and Butter - Batman

I don't collect this line but... what the hell?
The latest wave of Mortal Kombat figures only has one Mortal Kombat character? And I would be fine if I never see another rendition of The Batman Who Laughs from any manufacturer. |

Despite the lack of new MK figures that's definitely the Spawn I've been waiting for. The other two suck donkey dong but he's looking great.
I've been hoping for the past versions of Sub-Zero and Scorpion since the line got announced but it's looking like it ain't happening. Of course now the regular Sub-Zero that they did make is pretty expensive. |

I'm very disappointed that they gave this Spawn the wrong gear. They gave Malefik Spawn the different gauntlet and boot but couldn't be bothered to do that here? I know the proper pieces are in the game since I use them with this skin.

You'd think he'd make the main characters, maybe add a Robocop or Terminator. But instead he keeps repainting Kabal and releasing Spawns.
It's Mortal Kombat. Where's Jax, Sonya, Kano, Reptile, Kung Lao, Shang Tsung, etc.? At this point you get a better roster of actual MK characters from Storm. |

Picked up Batman Who Laughs, he looks dope.
I kno Todd’s only doing MK4 figs but it would be mean to see a OldMan Shang Tsung from MK1; hell Storm should release one, that would be hella cool |

These are all from MK11, the entire line has been 11.
He can't do Robocop or Terminator unless he gets those licenses, just because Netherrealm got them for the game doesn't mean they can serve as a proxy for merchandising. Also, for what it's worth, this is really only the second Kabal since the bloody one was just a Target exclusive variant.

Spawn is to be expected since Todd McFarlane created the character and that's his baby. DC is a bit surprising, but I guess since DC and Image 0particularly McFarlane Productions are on good terms I guess Todd's going to promote the hell out of DC stuff too.

McFarlane Toys sadly shows no indication of making more female Kombatants after Kitana.

Unfortunately, I still keep hoping for Jade, Cassie, Skarlet, and Frost but I'm definitely not holding my breath. At least the line is still going at all so our hopes aren't totally dashed.

That was almost 20 years ago, during the Movie Maniacs days. NECA currently has the license for both RoboCop & Terminator in McF's chosen scale, and I imagine it'd be a pain to try navigating those waters even with the MK tie-in.

Mileena and Sonya would be ideal but considering Todd's stance on lady figures I guess we're lucky we got Kitana.
