[Trivial Psychic]

A lot of hatred for Raiden here...which surprises me...especially with all of the hatred towards it being the MK2 version of the character (which I thought was his best look honestly...it's certainly the most iconic version of him.)

Knowing Storm, I would almost be willing to bet that the vest will be removable on the final product...allowing you to get a look pretty damn close to his MK1 appearance. If there is one thing Storm is really good at doing, it's getting multiple versions of a character out with very subtle changes (such as Ken having his Alpha and SF2 looks, Bipson's removable skirt which transforms him back to SF2, the different MK masks featured with the ninjas, etc.)

It won't be 100 percent accurate in Raiden's case, but it would be close enough. And since Storm figures tend to disassemble pretty easy, they could always put in an extra set of arms. Until we see a final product, who knows what is coming.

Looks like Kitana and her sisters might be stuck in "pending licensor approval hell." Or the Netherrealm, along with Lui Kang. Quan Chi is powerful indeed...
