Yeah I'm pretty sure the decision to drop the line wasn't just Mezco being weird but like you said a license transfer and less than stellar sales.

Regarding character selection, again I'd say they kind of have to make a Sub-Zero and Scorpion in every line or they'll see no sales probably. Mezco did do more than just those two poster characters but they aren't selling nearly as well as them. Raiden and Kitana are selling decently but not as much as Subs and Scorps and then Kotal and Quan Chi are straight up peg-warming at my TRU and Hastings. I'd actually totally expect for Storm Collectibles to only do Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and Goro as they've announced but then not move on to the non-ninja actually different in design characters. I'll say this already, at least Mezco made entirely distinct and separate figures while these are pretty much just gonna be the same toy almost exactly but in yellow or blue.
