PCS MK Wish List

[World Warrior]

So don't get to crazy, base your recommendations off characters closest to the original MK story. Characters like Quan Chi and Shinok do count, but characters like Blaze and others need not be considered. Although I am for a cool ass Blaze Statue there are others I prefer to spend my hard earned cash on then him and other added characters. I consider the characters from the first 3 games the most important and a good starting point.

Scorpion- Classic design, Excl Fatality form (change out flaming head and hand holding mask)

Raiden- 3rd Generation design, Excl Alt Color Gi (I would actually like to see J do something revolutionary and have Raiden in his superman pose)

etc, etc.

[World Warrior]

Awesome posted
"Holy crap if they actually did Kintaro that would be great."

Yes it would. I would like to see him posed in his roaring pose, arms back slightly tilted back wards. Would make a great Dio rama with Shao Khan in his throne as seen in MK II.

[Awesome]

Damn these are going to be great, Goro and Kintaro together with Shang Tsung and Shao Khan in one scene would look damn good.

[World Warrior]

See that is something else I would like Jerry to consider is unlike the SF line, when sculpting these statues, sculpt them to be stand alone pieces and also to be displayed together in a Dio rama or Large scale Dio rama. I would have liked the SF line to resemble the large panoramic of all the SF characters.

as for Shang Tsung

Reg Ed could be Old man Shang and Excl could be MK II Shang firing flaming Head.

[Awesome]

I have to refrain from posting on this message board because just the thought of this line and the rest of the Street Fighter one is giving me a raging.

a raging what?

[Darth Pain]

I just want Reptile. Maybe Subzero and Scorpion too.

[Kris Naga]

IN ORDER

1: Sub-Zero (MK2 look)
2: Reptile (MK2 look)
3: Sektor (MK3 look)
4: Mileena (MK2 look)
5: Scorpion (MK2 look)
6: Shang Tsung (MK3 look)
7: Kitana (MK2 look)
8: Quan Chi (MK Deadly Alliance look)
9: Shao Kahn (MK2 look)
10: Kano (MK1 look)
11: Ermac (MK Deception look)
12: Smoke (MK2 look)
13: Noob Saibot (MK2 look)
14: Baraka (MK2 look)

I wouldn't be interested in anyone else.

[MrYac]

i'm more interested in MK statues then in SF as there are literally 2 street fighters who would be 100% yes purchases for me (and they'll likely never be made :p) and quite a few more on the MK side, but the only 2 i'd really be upset if they didn't get made would be Scorpion and Goro, Goro is top of my wishlise as i honestly can't imagine a more dyanmic looking piece in the series period

[Spazzy]

I just want Reptile. Maybe Subzero and Scorpion too.

Would be the only 3 I would get too.

[Sinister Mister]

Did Jerry announce an MK line? I've been off the grid for quite a while so I wouldn't know if he did within the last 2 months or so.

[World Warrior]

Not officially ;)

[derekrodneysim]

The only way I would bite into this is if the characters are made to look more "realistic" as opposed to the current SF line which has a more cartoony feel.

The prospect is scary! Imagine the number of characters!

[Kris Naga]

I agree 100%.

[World Warrior]

I completely understand your point, but I am sure J will do a Great Job.

[Aertyl]

1. Cyrax (LK-4D4)
2. Jade
3. Kabal
4. Kitana
5. Reptile
6. Scorpion
7. Shang Tsung
8. Sektor (LK-9T9)
9. Smoke (LK-7T2)
10. Shang Tsung
11. Sub-Zero

There are so many characters starting with "S" in this series! (Sonya Blade, Shao Khan, Sindel...) :)

[Red X]

I would be interested in only a few...Scoprion, Sub, Reptile, Kitana, Raiden.

Anything from MK 4 on would be a bust, no one wants those. The closer he sticks to the original 2 games the better.

[akumalove]

I only like Sub-Zero, Reptile, Scorpion and this purple one.
Maybe a Raiden would be nice too.

[Ridimous]

My favorites.

1. Liu Kang
2. Kung Lau
3. Nightwolf
4. Kano
5. Stryker

[MrYac]

My favorites.

1. Liu Kang
2. Kung Lau
3. Nightwolf
4. Kano
5. Stryker

i think you might be the first person i've ever seen that liked Nightwolf or Stryker....

[World Warrior]

I completely left those 2 of a list of about 25.

[chezzrok]

Shinnok, Quanchi, Sub, Scorp, Rep. RAiden UMK SHANG TSUNG!

[MrYac]

i am seeing a disturbing lack of people with Goro on their lists.....

[World Warrior]

Not worried in the least. Once they see how awesome goro, kintaro and khan look they will be on board. If not then J can always run with a lower edition size on those big guys.

[Aertyl]

Goro would be cool.

EX= Johnny giving him the low blow! :radior: :laugh:

[World Warrior]

Goro would be cool.

EX= Johnny giving him the low blow! :radior: :laugh:

Question for all

as big as the 4 bosses would be (goro, kitaro, khan and mutaro) would your really want them to have an exclusive?

How about just an exclusive piece, backdrop or companion piece?

for example: Goro posed with his one arm up and the exclusive piece being a mangled body.

Or

Kitaro with a panoramic backdrop as seen in MK II

Or Kitaro with an exclusive companion piece of khan in throne as seen in MK II

[Ridimous]

i think you might be the first person i've ever seen that liked Nightwolf or Stryker....

I loved using Nightwolf and his arrows and Stryker with his grenades. Wait until you see these guys in the new Mortal Combat game. Everyone will be there except for Dhramin and some other guy.

[Kris Naga]

i am seeing a disturbing lack of people with Goro on their lists.....

My only concern with Goro would be the huge price tag...

Also applies to Kintaro and Motaro.

[World Warrior]

Well in comparison to SS New Hulk Statue at 24" and 18lbs I don't think $360 is to bad of a price tag. I am completely expecting the 4 bosses to be 24" and quite heavy. Although I don't like the over $300 price tag, J did say that most if not all statues would be $300 + from here on out :(

Now if he could get the price of the big guys down to $325 and the 18" at $300 or less. I think alot more folks would follow this line and others.

[THE_BEAST]

This is all I want. I missed a few, but this is most of them.

-Sub-Zero
-Scorpion
-Sonya
-Johnny Cage
-Kano
-Liu-Kang
-Raiden
-Reptile
-Goro
-Shang-Tsung
-Jade
-Cyrax
-Sektor
-Smoke
-Kung Lao
-Kitana
-Mileena
-Ermac
-Noob Saibot
-Baraka

[fflamingmoe]

Yup i'm also waiting for this line.
And i think the statues should be based on the new MK next year.
What do you guy's think?
And Goro is a must for me.

[World Warrior]

But if the statues are based on the NEW MK, what if Goro, Kintaro and a few others aren't included in the game?

What I would like to see is a combination of the NEW MK and the classic MK represented in this line.

[Averone]

I wish in case MK is made that Jerry uses better styro!

:flash:

[World Warrior]

awe come on now averone, not in this thread too. I had already mentioned the styrofoam issue prior to this incident with Guile. Even though I don't feel the styro is completely to blame for these breaks with Guile. I do hope it is considered when planning the MK line.

[Spartacus]

Sorry guys for the stupid question,:doh!: but is MK Mortal Kombat ? Haven't been following this thread!

whats this long trailer of a MK Movie?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUCjEbJPHR8&feature=related

That was just a pitch to the studios for a movie. A Mortal Kombat movie will be made eventually in the coming 2-4 years but I hope they keep those actors for it.

The actor would played Shang Tsung did a really good job in the movie but I always played as Sheva when I played Mortal Kombat 64 >_>

[THE_BEAST]

Likewise!!!!!!

[darren1228]

I know these two sucked in MKII but Baraka and Reptile were my favorites.

[World Warrior]

What and who's Fatalities would you like to see in Polystone?

[Bruticus]

the most classic one would be Subby head ripping someone...

Shao Kahn
SubZero
Scorpion
Quan Chi
Shang Tsung
Reptile
Goro
Kintaro

[JohnMatrix]

I think Shao Kahn with a big hammer will make a super awesome statue!

http://www.mknexusonline.com/forums/gallery/images/5/1_Dark_VS.Shao_Kahn.jpg

[World Warrior]

I am looking forward to PCS Khan, I am, hoping he will be represented as seen above, but I'm not quite sure about the hammer even though I would like it to be incorporated.

[THE_BEAST]

http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt145/TitanChuck/mk3.png

I miss those days. Things seemed so much better back then.

[Alpha_Flight]

Call me boring, but I do hope Jerry sticks with MK1 and MK2 designs. I really don't go much on the new designs. They are way to tacky IMHO.

Why change something that is awsome as is... could you imagine if Ryu and Ken started wearing pleather bondage? Capcom has the right idea.. keep it classic!

[OuttaSight]

If I were to do MK its inevitably going to make some fans happy and some sad. There are too many versions of these characters and everyone has different preferences.

[Old Snake]

While I identify with the first wave of MK, it's difficult for me to rationalize dropping $300 for a plain clothes Sub-Zero or Scorpion. It needs to offer something more, like a highly dynamic pose for me to consider buying.

[Awesome]

Jerry, if you indeed do this line make Goro and Kintaro please.

Okay thanks.

[bebohawk]

If I were to do MK its inevitably going to make some fans happy and some sad. There are too many versions of these characters and everyone has different preferences.

Hey Jerry let say if you some day make this line or other company make it wich version of characters you Choose or you would like to see???

[OuttaSight]

Jerry, if you indeed do this line make Goro and Kintaro please.

Okay thanks.

Both of those would be fun to sculpt.



Hey Jerry let say if you some day make this line or other company make it wich version of characters you Choose or you would like to see???

Ill be honest. I was more of a Street Fighter guy than Mortal Kombat guy so I dont know all the various incarnations that well.

If I were to do MK I would probably pick the versions that looked coolest to me...unless Warner Bros insisted on a specific style.

[Awesome]

Especially Kintaro, tiger stripes? Definitely.

[Spartacus]

As i have mentioned in another thread, i trust your design direction on this Jerry! ...You have not let us down so far!

[Andrew]

This would be a great license for dioramas.

The only problem with this is all of the ninjas are going to look the same or almost the same. Kitana and Mileena will look the same. Cyrax, Sector, and Smoke would look the same.

The line would be REALLY boring.

[francois_nor]

I love both MK and MOTU.... but plz jerry if u have to choose one make sure its MOTU

[Spartacus]

I love both MK and MOTU.... but plz jerry if u have to choose one make sure its MOTU

I agree, if its one of the two, please go with the MOTU licence!

[wolvie82]

Subzero(un-masked ex), Scorpion(Light up!! un-masked ex), Raiden( Light up!! and alt red color ex), Shao khan( in-masked). And Baraka (alt costume)

[World Warrior]

Nice selections wolvie sans 1, Subzero. I don't ever remember the original Subs being unmasked but I know his brother is when we see him in part II. Me personally I would like 2 individual statues of Subs 1 and 2. Sub 1 would have the head rip as the excl. Subs 2 something different.

[MinMay]

Are you guys sure about having PCS with this license? Do you know how many characters are there? I"m sure most of you are completist....and I got a feeling ya won't live long enough to complete it...not sure if Jerry can still do it at the age of 100 to finish all the characters hehehee.

I like MK, but I dooubt i'll be buying it.... I'm one of those completist :) and I can't/don't want to spend that much money on statue...no room...no storage, etc.

[Old Snake]

Completism is overrated. Just make what's cool and it will sell.

[World Warrior]

You'll be hooked from the start ;)

There are nearly 40 different characters, just off the top of my head. There are 24 characters that I would like to see released over the course of 6 years. It has taken almost 5 to get to where we are with SF, so I don't mind completing the SF line and transitioning into the MK line. I will also be picking up the Ultimate Ryu next year as well. PCS collectibles are now the center point of my collection. Because of the SF line and MK line.

[Old Snake]

The MK universe has a dark, gritty vibe that I hope the statues can convey.

[jetfuel]

Jerry needs to expand his production and release 3 or more statues at a time.

[World Warrior]

Expect for more statues to be cranked out next year, just about one every other month.

[Alpha_Flight]

If I were to do MK its inevitably going to make some fans happy and some sad. There are too many versions of these characters and everyone has different preferences.

Jerry, whichever route you take in terms of the costumes, they will have to be consistent. I wouldn't want a Mortal Kombat lineup with Sub-Zero in his MK2 costume and Scorpion in his Deadly Alliance costume. Are you going to pick a certain era of MK, or will it be down to Warner Bros. to pic the design criterea??

[MortalMonday]

I really dig the look & feel of the characters from MK: Deception, like Raiden:

http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0/1433/327914-raiden_super.jpg

[derekrodneysim]

MK2 was my all-time favorite! That was when it was at it's peak with gameplay and character designs. Before it got too much.

My only wish if PCS were to take on this license is to raise the overall quality. To sculpt, casting..everything. Right now I wish SS production would match SS cos Jerry has mad skills and being such an awesome dude, I wish all the best for him and PCS.

[derekrodneysim]

And Raiden must be done exceptionally well or not at all. He's the coolest of the MK universe! And also Outkast sang "what's cooler than being cool?" Ice-cold! Sub-zero is ice- cold!

[wolvie82]

The only problem with this is all of the ninjas are going to look the same or almost the same. Kitana and Mileena will look the same. Cyrax, Sector, and Smoke would look the same.

The line would be REALLY boring.

not if you do say mk 2 milleena then another version of kitana and the same for the cyborgs and ninjas

[World Warrior]

What if sector statue was based off of MK9 and was posed teleporting as seen in this video? (pause right at 43 seconds) to see what I am talking about.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcDFkJWxY1M

I think that would look cool as heck to have him in an uppercut pose with the number matrix around him.

[derekrodneysim]

The ninjas and cyborgs will look cool regardless. Better still if they have different match-up poses as we see in the game.

Poses must reflect the gameplay style each character has!

[MortalMonday]

Give me a sweet Johnny Cage piece with an ex autograph!

[OuttaSight]

Lets say I did MK statues... hypothetically.

What kind of bases would they have ?

[Awesome]

Mortal Kombat logo. Each character can have variations.

[Spartacus]

The official MK logo with color variations for each character!
The color areas should be sunk in a little to give the base depth!

http://insidemk.altervista.org/zenphoto/albums/mortal-kombat-2011/Renders%20%26%20Artworks/ShaoKahn_KA.jpg

[MortalMonday]

The MK logo would probably make a killer base. Kinda how the X-Men logo on Sideshow Gambit's base works so well there.

[Spartacus]

Agreed!

[VS1976]

No interest what's so ever..... Please bring on MOTU!

[Davidian]

I'd wanna see characters from MKII:

Raiden
Scorpion
Subzero
Kitana (w/o her mask)
Reptile
Baraka

[Awesome]

No interest what's so ever..... Please bring on MOTU!

You can say the same thing, some people don't give a crap about that franchise, but love Mortal Kombat. Same how you don't like Dragonball but it's more popular than most licenses that both Pop Culture and Sideshow have.

[Andrew]

Lets say I did MK statues... hypothetically.

What kind of bases would they have ?

The black bases on the Street Fighter PF's and busts look great, but at this point are kind of unique to that license compared to all of the other licenses you've made statues of so far, so no more of that style except for SF.

With that said, I agree with most that the MK bases should be the dragon symbol on all the PF's. However, I disagree that they should have different colors per character or any color at all.

First off, you don't want too much attention taken away from the statue that is bring displayed. Also, with MK a decision has to be made from the first statue on whether or not the theme is going to be dark and gritty or somewhat more lighthearted. Colored bases are not going to give off the perception of dark and gritty, in my opinion.

I personally feel that the dragon symbol should be a monochrome color like gunmetal gray. A perfect example would be the symbol behind Raiden in the picture below.



http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0/1433/327914-raiden_super.jpg

[Old Snake]

Just a sculpted gritty stone base, like something out of a stage. The MK logo would be ok only if it's drab and out of the way, like Andrew's idea.

[Turtle]

I personally feel that the dragon symbol should be a monochrome color like gunmetal gray. A perfect example would be the symbol behind Raiden in the picture below.

Right on Andrew--Couldn't agree more. That symbol behind Raiden is absolutely perfect!

[loricstone]

I agree, if its one of the two, please go with the MOTU licence!

Whoa!!!! Wait a sec guys..stop this if MOTU or MK thing will ya?

I really couldnt choose between the two.....and would proabably lean more towards MK simply because there are a finite amount of characters in MK and it would be more likely that Jerry could do a complete line.

With MOTU...honestly, that just AINT gonna happen!!! There are entirely toooooo many characters from the MOTU line. I'm a completionist and I dont want MOTU line unless Jerry could guarantee at least half the characters.

[loricstone]

The only problem with this is all of the ninjas are going to look the same or almost the same. Kitana and Mileena will look the same. Cyrax, Sector, and Smoke would look the same.

The line would be REALLY boring.

Not just that...but I'm sorry you put a comparison of the current MK look with the old MK look and the new one is just on such a higher design level that its not even funny. Its like comparing a Yugo (MK1 and MK2 versions) to a Honda Accord (modern version). There is no comparison.

HERE IS UGLY!!!!!

[loricstone]

Is it ok to put the previous pictures up with IGN logo? Im not sure mods. If not sorry

[xenofreak]

I actually would like to see the same round black bases for MK.

Some people may only want to display their favorite character from each game and it would be nice if the bases matched. For example, someone may want only Ryu and Scorpion.

I would most likely have several statues from each game and would probably have to display them together on the same shelf.

Surprised to hear so much love for the simple black bases.

If I did MK I dont think Id go that direction though...

[Zangief]

I think it would be cool to make the bases the same cause then you could make your own dio's and they wouldn't look weird

[World Warrior]

The combination of dio's with the different characters is the only reason I would want the bases to be the same. But I also think that having elaborate bases based on some of the stages would be pretty neat as well.

[Freon]

Wouldn't want the bases to be too extravagant because it takes away from the statue. Black or stone as mentioned with a slight MK etched logo would be cool.

Square bases instead of circular would be a shelf saver too since you could put all the characters beside one another without any wasted room.

I like the idea of a square base! and just a added note, have the a round 2D version of the MK logo on top!
That would look good too!

[Gruson]

Simple black stone bases with maybe a small MK dragon logo etched in bottom center but same color... and CLASSIC MK characters all the way!

Or have the entire black base be the MK logo. Simple yet cool.

I guess J was watching The Thing last night too? Now honestly I wouldn't mind a McGrady Statue, but there isn't really to much else that I want from that movie.


Back to Kombat....

[World Warrior]

So J could we expect an announcement for this line closer to the end of this year or more towards the first Qtr of next year?

[JohnMatrix]

Man, I will be so broke! I am getting Shao Kahn, Scorpion, SubZero, Shang Tsung, Goro and many more bad guys!

[JohnMatrix]

Hey Jerry, any hints on when will you be giving us an announcement for Mortal Kombat? I want to see you sculpting a Shao Kahn statue!

http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101013052039/mk/images/9/91/Shao_Kahn.jpeg

[World Warrior]

Man that is a lesser version of Khan. I like the one someone else posted with him vs darkseid. Khan looks better in that game.

[OuttaSight]

Announcing when you are going to announce something is kind of silly ;)

[World Warrior]

it is :p

[Spartacus]

:laugh:
The teasing continues!

[Freon]

You know...man is the warmest place to hide

Damn right! I need a 1/4 statue from The Thing! Preferably one of the monsters. MacReady would be cool too on a lesser scale. :buttrock:

Anyway, if 1/4 MK is coming up next year, I'll be collecting all of the characters from the first game. I might be able to keep it affordable that way.

[World Warrior]

What would you guys say if this line ended up being 1/5 scale? I have noticed a trend lately in some of SS statues and it seems that alot of things are going to 1/5 scale and clothless? MK is going to to be way to detailed for cloth as much as we all would like it to be. I would be fine with it as long as most statues are in the 16" range and the bosses are upto 22" tall especially Goro.

:thumbsdown for 1/5

[World Warrior]

what if it were 1/4 clothless?

[Andrew]

I agree that the newer MK character designs are too elaborate for mixed media. MK 1, 2, or 3 would work okay, but MK Deadly Alliance and beyond would be impossible to do right. At least as far as mass production is concerned.

[Zangief]

what if it were 1/4 clothless?

:thumbs2:

Need it to be 1/4 to go with the Street Fighter statues, Scorpion vs. Akuma would be AWESOME

Hey even the producers themselves are going to pretend the other games didn't happen and bring the new MK game back to the glory era :rolleyes:

[MrYac]

Eh, aside from the stupid finishing moves most of the later games were better then the original. If nothing else they had some really great new character designs, but then I'm sure you'd prefer it if every single ninja was just a stupid color swap again

I do. I happen to like MK3 a lot.

Hey even the producers themselves are going to pretend the other games didn't happen and bring the new MK game back to the glory era :rolleyes:

Yeah, but fyi, that includes MK3. That's why characters like Sektor and Cyrax are coming back. I happen to think that MK3's look best suits the characters if they were to be made as PF's and if/when Jerry announces he has acquired the MK license, I hope he goes with the MK3 look for Shang Tsung because that's the outfit I prefer of his best.

[MrYac]

Crappy character designs....in my opinion of course. And this is just the tip of the iceberg.

of course there are Bad-Word-Bad-Word-Bad-Word-Bad-Word-ty ones, but then there were Bad-Word-Bad-Word-Bad-Word-Bad-Word-ty ones from the start, but then because they are "classic" now i guess that means Johnny Cage and Kano were always cool right:bored:

Yeah I guess you are right. MKIII is not quite II but had some cool characters. I liked the robots Sektor and Cyrax. I also liked Kabal for some weird reason.

Yes there were lame characters in the originals but much much less of them.

Johnny Cage will never be cool and when did Kano become lame?

[Spartacus]

You know, in the end, i trust if PCS get the Licence, i know Jerry will do the right MK character justice!

Lets see what happens!

[Andrew]

Give me Baraka and I'll be done.

I can't get them all, so I'll just stick with my one true favorite and be happy with that.

[dechirico7]

Yeah, I am with you there, but the scary face underneath would add some tension. I want to look, but I don't, lol.

[NWO SCUM]

I would get MK statues if they have that look from the pictures above. They look awesome like that. Although I do love the original MK game the characters are bland and not that visually appealing to me. That's just my opinion.

No thanks. Classic costumes all the way. Preferably a mixture of costumes from the first three MKs.

[Nerdy Black Guy]

Fourth. I like that look to.

[World Warrior]

SO which character of the top 20 would you least likely want in your collection?

My vote is Johnny Cage.

[MrYac]

i can't think of anybody in the MK universe who would make a cooler statue then Goro

[World Warrior]

Goro is in the planning stages. Who is the least desired character you would want in statue form?

[MrYac]

well i'm unlikely to buy pretty much anybody else unfortunatly, with money and space being what it is not to mention the potential Klassic line coming that would fill in the gaps of the non-goro people i'd buy. but i'd say the person with the least appeal would be Boricho

[World Warrior]

???
why is he even in the top 20?

[Vracula]

the new costumes are awesome and Mk 2 is still my fav game.They are just not visually interesting.

[World Warrior]

As Mr.Yac said the Klassic line will be out later next year in full PF.

[MrYac]

???
why is he even in the top 20?

haha, not sure what the top consists of to be honest, is there a list somewhere in this thread?

[World Warrior]

I made one before, but I am too lazy to look it up. Basically it is everyone from UMK3 and a few of those introduced afterwards.

I'm really glad about the Klassic line as I want a MK3 version of Kabal not the newer version.

Another thing that collectors need to know is that if a pose has already been done by another company then you will most likely NOT see it done by PCS.

[MrYac]

well my big thing about the klassics isn't so much the costumes as it is the museum poses. action poses just don't do it for me most of the time

[World Warrior]

I like that we will have two versions to choose between. While I feel the Klassic line will have a better response. Having the newer line isn't a bad thing.

The great thing about the MK9 line is we will be able to give collectors the Scorpion vs Sub zero set facing off the way collectors want them too. While the Klassic line will give you a more definitive pose of the characters you have grown to love since there inception.

[MrYac]

i hope they both do well enough that he can keep them going as long as possible

[World Warrior]

There are "bigger" dreams for the more popular characters if the lines are successful.

[premium_substit]

I want them all (except stryker).. but I suppose among my most favoured would be Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Shao Kahn, Lui Kang, Kitana, and goro.. no kidding MK is the 1 franchise where I love all the designs

so glad we are getting the get over here scorpion pose!!:D

man I cannot wait to have that beast in ma house.

[Stitch74]

The one character I want the least has got to be lui kang,with Jax being a close second. I think I would probably buy a zombie lui kang way before a normal version.

[Ryu]

:hi: Jerry.

I'd say, the least desirable characters would be Jax, Lui Kang, Night Wolf, Johnny Cage.

[Vracula]

Johnny Cage is a douche!

[World Warrior]

I would say the Lui Kang is probably in the top 5 and Jax would be somewhere between 10 & 15. Night wolf however would be outside the 20.

[Vracula]

wonder what Jerry is planning for Cyrax.Goddamn is he gonna look good.

[MrYac]

i know he's one of the main guys, but Kang is just so boring looking

[A2G]

I just want Smoke made in non-action pose with this costume and ill be a happy camper....:jawd:

They really should make an encyclopedia book with all the concept art etc

No you are correct! That's just actual fact! Damn Rambo looking self made nightclothes is what those old costume designs look like! :rimshot:

[MrYac]

while i don't think it's a fact i do agree the classic costumes were very lacking, i'd love a Scorpion thats closer to the original but with a few of the newer enhancments so it's not the same ninja 9 times over, but like i said i'm more looking for the non action poses then i am for the different outfits

[loricstone]

Yeah, I was trying to get a rise out of someone about opinions...:p

[loricstone]

Honestly, if you want more of the museum type poses, I can tell you that Syco Collectibles would be the way to go on that front, at least from all the current sculpts. Seems like PCS is going for more of the action poses. I personally like both so far. I think the new 10" unpainted Jade statue and the little pic of the 18" Ermac looks phenomenal so far. The 10" Kitana is actually the pose most have posted they want so far. So it will definitely be interesting to see what PCS decides to do with the next sculpts. Only time will tell.

[Freon]

Classic Sub Zero. My top choice.

[World Warrior]

It disappoints me that Kitana was done in the ideal pose I had picked for her. This is what happens when you post your ideas on the internet or discuss them openly. The only thing that makes me smile is the thought of how awesome the quality of our kitana would have been in that same pose. As I mentioned a few post back if another company does a certain pose you will most likely not see it done by PCS. It is a very delicate and frustrating en devour when you have two companies producing product from the same line trying not to imitate each others product.

Just be positive and look at the situation from the other side of the coin. The other company is throwing their cards on the table first, which means you can see what they're working with and up the ante in detail and quality! :thumbs2:

Their Scorpion doesn't hold a candle to the one you guys have in production.

[Icemango]

This is all I want. I missed a few, but this is most of them.

-Sub-Zero
-Scorpion
-Sonya
-Johnny Cage
-Kano
-Liu-Kang
-Raiden
-Reptile
-Goro
-Shang-Tsung
-Jade
-Cyrax
-Sektor
-Smoke
-Kung Lao
-Kitana
-Mileena
-Ermac
-Noob Saibot
-Baraka

so you want all of them :penguin:

[Icemango]

all the ninja's and close the line :)

[A2G]

all the ninja's and close the line :)

so much win in that sentence.

[Alpha_Flight]

All I want is a classic MK2 Kahn, classic MK1 Goro and classic MK1 old man Tsung trio. IMO they are by far the top 3 bad asses of MK.

The only ninjas I would buy are Scoprion and Sub-Zero in the MK1 or MK2 costumes. Mainly because in MK1 and MK2 they ACTUALLY look like ninjas (Maaayybe Reptile), but wouldn't want an army of pallet swap ninja's, it would be the GG clone busts all over again lol.

Indeed, that is my whole point. I don't really care for the other 4 ninjas, Scorps and Subby are the originals, the rest are just clones in my eyes. As far as Mk designs go, they started heading south come MK3. I'm just grateful that some classic costumes are available in MK9, all the new designs are way too OTT for me. They really aren't classy whatsoever.

That Kitana statue is not bad.

being an mk fan from the start .I think the Mk 9 designs are phenomenal ,especially Scorpion.

That is an unfair comparison because while PCS Scorpion is 18" Syco is only 10". But I do like the pose for Scorpion done by PCS better than Syco, but Syco as I have stated before is of very high quality. Nice details and solid pose for Sub Zero 18" looks promising. Plus, their Scorpion 1:2 bust is unbelieveable. ANd the next one that should be shown soon is Shao Khan! If anyone hasn't seen the new unpainted Jade 10" statue from Syco really should check it out! Really phenomenal!

I'm not saying for people to buy Syco MK statues, but they should at least check out what they are doing and try to think of how Jerry is going to do each character differently.

[Ryu]

The 1:2 scorpion bust looks pretty cool.

[loricstone]

If you are going off the old classic MK 1 and MK2 models then yes, I would agree! But, this may be where you and I differ, MK1 and MK2 as a fighting game were horrendous fighting games (MK1 moreso than MK2). And all those original designs were BORING, DRAB, and quite frankly looked like self made chest coverings like RAMBO made himself in the woods in First Blood! Not visually appealing!

With MK9 (the best of the series BY FAR) has great designs of all the ninjas. Everyone looks different. Noob looks different from Ermac, Reptile looks different from Smoke, they all have different moves and fighting styles. There just really is no contest! Plus no cheap paper bag costumes! The devil is in the details...it really is! Its just no contest! And according to the sales of the game, most people feel the same! Not saying classic costumes can't be represented in statue form (they could as people would buy it), but if I am a statue manufacturer there is no way I am not going to output whats freshest in people's minds that is very popular!

See and that's what I can't comprehend! What is iconic about Scorpion and Sub-Zero to you? Is it the look? Or is there powers and abilities! MK was not a fashion show, and therefore I just can't understand how some don't get by that ugly original costume look (my opinon). Its there actions which is what makes them so iconic, not their costumes! SF is the same way. True, the costumes have not changed in SF, but that is not what's iconic about them. Its the Shoryuken, and different actions of the characters that make them iconic. When you think of Dhalsim, what do you think of first? His shorts and neck chain? I doubt it! You think of his Yoga Fire, Yoga Flame, and long stretchable limbs that hit others across the screen!

[premium_substit]

Can we put the whole classic vs modern to rest lol.. obviously fans of both parties are stubborn.. however, BOTH these companies (PCS & syco) have now realised there is potential and a market for both, and they are both releasing both classic and modern..

Scorpion EX still isn't sold out, that really surprises me.. I have to wonder, if it was classic, would it be sold out by now??.. I am JOKING.. I ordered it on day 1.. updated pics should help

Scorpion looks fantastic, but imo it is too much of an extreme action pose, his stance reduces chest detail...also it lacks the yellow/gold color in some areas....much blacker than what i see in MK9

[ilikethat]

1000 es is too much clearly.

:iagree::iagree:

Like I said, I will put money on it that the Klassic line sells better than the MK9 one.

Well I do disagree with this. If Ryu's costume was changed then yes, it would definetely affect my outlook on his character. His design is reflective of his character, a simple travelling warrior. Character design is very important for keeping them timeless. If the MK team were to redesign the costumes for SF then Ken would have tatooes all over his body with diamond stud earings... it's just unecessary IMO. Scorpion and Sub-Zero were ninja's from rivalling clans, and they LOOKED like ninjas. Now they look like a couple guys trying to have an extreme fashion contest.

The MK team always feels the need to add massive amounts of belt buckels, shoulder pads, tatooes etc. The masks look like gas masks, reptile looks like a sadist in pleather bondage... which are unnecesary and tacky. The new desings for the women of MK makes them look like strippers, which is just plain distasteful.

I've been an MK fan all my life, and play the games religiously, but every game post MK3 (even a little in MK3) always bothered me in regards to character design.

MK keeps it "fresh", but SF keeps it timeless.

The MK team always feels the need to add massive amounts of belt buckels, shoulder pads, tatooes etc. The masks look like gas masks, reptile looks like a sadist in pleather bondage... which are unnecesary and tacky. The new desings for the women of MK makes them look like strippers, which is just plain distasteful.

I've been an MK fan all my life, and play the games religiously, but every game post MK3 (even a little in MK3) always bothered me in regards to character design.

MK keeps it "fresh", but SF keeps it timeless.

Once again, it seems my point is missed. What is it that is most iconic about SF characters and MK characters?

Here is a factual statement! It sure as hell aint the gear!

IT IS THE MOVES OF CHARACTERS IN THE FIGHTING GAME!

Get over here! Shoryuken! Sonic Boom! Yoga Flame! Sorry to burst anyone's bubble but SF costumes are not why I played SF to begin with! Sorry it was the moves. NOT THE GEAR!

I HOPE I MADE MY POINT CLEAR!!
MOVES ARE WHAT MAKE SF AND MK CHARACTERS ICONIC!

Big difference if we are talking about Superman and Batman or Thor! Now we can start talking about clothes and designs! Superman is iconic because of his S and red and blue gear plus his ability to fly! Batman is iconic due to his bat symbol and his suit! Thor is iconic because of his hammer Mjolnir and the fact he is a god.

Some things are iconic because of their gear! SF and MK are not iconic because of their gear! Last I heard, people play MK because they have cool special moves and has a pretty damn good fighting system now.

Sorry dude, I don't play SF and MK to look at their clothes! And if I do pay attention to clothes, I pay more attention to MK as the designs are quite fascinating! SF to me is dull! JMO!

Ryu is iconic for his red head band, Guile is iconic for his hair and army gear, Bison is iconic for his red suit and hat.

But hey man, seems we're both missing each other's points. We'll let this one rest. Good bout though dude.

Like I said, I will put money on it that the Klassic line sells better than the MK9 one.

i still think it was the pose and base.......if base was like syco's (which wasn't approved for Jerry), and the pose was a bit more upright showing chest design, clothes were yellower, and the ex skull was better designed.......it would have sold as quick as a klassic version
