Nice. Not that interested in Sub-Zero but Sektor and Cyrax would be awesome.

They have the protos for the Cyborg Ninjas, just need to see them fully painted.

Wow you're right, you posted the news from Wonderfest Summer almost one year ago, I somehow missed that entirely. Or I straight up forgot

Anyway, I'm down for both, I really like the good old Ketchup & Mustard robo duo, and their original MK3 appearances are still unrivaled to this day IMO.

I'll take all the Cyborgs. I was always fond of Cyborg Smoke as I loved his combo and his blow up the world fatality.

[Ventus]

MK3 already, very good.
But i did not like Sub Zeros Outfit from MK3 that much...

Iam happy that they dive into MK3 now, i really want a MK3 Liu Kang.

But i still think, the bestsellers of all time would be
some Chars from MK9 / MK10.
Sub Zero Masked + Unmasked (2 Heads) and
Scorpion Masked + Unmasked (Hanzo Hasashi)
Would be some bestsellers of all time.

As i said in the Mezco Thread, Mezco with Marvel and
Storm C with MK 1-10, they only need to pick the right Characters,
and pre Orders will go crazy = Money Rain

Iam excited to see what Storm C will show at SDCC

After all that last year and surprise, surprise, another ninja. Can't wait to see these exact same unpainted protos next week.

[ddarko]

Where is their Kitana? Shouldn't they first at least release or show painted versions of the ones they announced almost a year ago?

[brianregan09]

Just make some of the human characters, I'd kill for Kano, Lui Kang, Kung Lao

I've got Kahn , 4 ninjas and Goro on pre-order my Outworld is stacked

Mortal Kombat VS Series Noob Saibot 1/12 Scale Figure SDCC 2017 Exclusive

Wow, why the hell even have exclusives? BBTS has this up as a restock of last year's SDCC "exclusive."

Goro was shown around the time Sub & Scorp were first shown, but only NOW is coming out. For all we know, their production schedule is a chaotic as their release schedules.

Ah, but the only Outworld ninja is Ermac. Scorpion and Noob Saibot are from the Netherrealm. Sub-Zero is a human from Earth. Reptile is from Zatarra, which was obliterated by Shao Kahn and his race was wiped out. Zatarra never became part of Outworld.

I just want them to finish up the last 3 ninjas, and hopefully sell Noobs orb with Human Smoke bc we already have 2 ninjas with spears.

I think I might be the only person who really hates these figures, Everyone on Youtube goes gaga over them saying they're some of the best figures ever made. I bought their Hollywood Hogan and Chun Li figures and they were the worst figures I'd bought since Play Arts Kai.

I've never owned anything from Storm, but they are making Fist of The North Star figures which I'll definitely be getting. I've heard a lot of positive things on Youtube as well, so I'm curious, what is it you didn't like about Hogan and Chun Li?

[Bo Ttef]

Not every line is for everyone, but their favorable reviews seem to landslide over the negative. So that's a good thing. Vs, say the Mezco line before them and the (Jakks?) before them which were not regarded well by a majority but had a small following of people that liked them... Just means most people are happy with the product, but again- can't please 'em all.

[Bo Ttef]

Some great shots of Ermac in this review. looking forward to picking him up in San Diego

[Ventus]

Iam also not very sure if i should purchase certain Figures...
iam very undecided...as i said.

I need to see where they want to go with the Line.

For example, MK1/MK2 Liu Kang - looks awesome, also the Dragon.
But i like my Liu Kang with long Hair from MK3 - MK10.

I was interested in Goro, but this is also the MK1 Version which looks ugly because he is almost naked...
Goro in MK10 (With Armor Parts) looks awesome or KINTARO from MK2

That is what i really would like to see.

Liu Kang is mk2. Mk1 Liu Kang had Bruce Lee hair, no headband, and no arm guards.

Yup. Mk1 was Jean Claude Van Damme, Bruce Lee, & Linda Hamilton vs an unruly alien invasion and cybernetic killer.

Disclaimer 1: Most of my negative experience came from Hollywood Hogan since he arrived in the mail first and I fiddled around with him a lot before Chunners arrived a week later.

Disclaimer 2: I like figures I can fiddle around with without fear of them breaking, no I'm not expecting to be able to bash them against the wall like a kids' toy but the articulation should be easy,fun and functional. So that might color my view a bit here.


It really just comes down to that empty rubber crotch they use on these things. I hate it, It makes posing the legs more difficult then it needs to be because of how it can wiggle around while moving the legs leaving a nasty gap in the sculpt. And I worry if I were to say leave Chun Li in a high-kick pose or have Hogan doing his famous leg drop for an extended period of time it'll become warped due to the leg caving in the rubber.

Their Street Fighter stands also suck badly but most figure stands with a claw grip do so I won't hold that against them.

Also due to me trying to get Hogan's hips straight after playing with the legs thanks to that stupid rubber crotch his belt came off and being rubber it is impossible to get back on *whoever decides to make wearable belts out of soft rubber should be shot* and because of that empty crotch he has a notable gap in his torso now. Makes me worried to mess with Chun Li for fear her sash may come off, IDK if they glued it on.

My Hogan also has some QC issues mainly his left arm being loose in the socket to the point it pops out if you raise it and one of his legs being slightly longer than the other.

Maybe I'm being too harsh on these things * They do look cool and if it wasn't for the rubber pieces they'd be real fun to pose* but I haven't been this frustrated with a toy since PAK Chun Li which was so bad it made me say **** it to that entire line. These aren't that bad though because at least they can stand unaided and pieces don't fall off just by lightly touching them.

Still debating on whether to get the other Hogans they made since they'll probably be the only 1/12 scale Hogans made until WWE eventually decides to let Hogan back.

[Wonderful Toys]

I get why they went with the rubber pelvis, but I don't understand why it's not actually attached to anything. Seems shoddy compared to the quality of the rest of the figure. NECA's way makes more sense, where the flexible pelvis cover attaches to an underlying plastic part as well as the lower torso.

[Joe Moore]

Looks like the fully painted Baraka will also be making an appearance at SDCC 2018.

Now you're talking! Let's see if Storm is finally going to start rolling these guys out a little faster...

[deecee4]

I like a lot of what storm does but have to admit, not a fan of the empty rubber crotches either. Haven't had any issues with posing but, it can look unsightly in certain poses.
