I've been thinking about this but I might pass. Sub-Zero is OK but it is, in my opinion not on the same hype train as Akuma. Love that statue to bits, even at $150 more. Waiting one year and investing $600 in a statue I'm not convinced about is a big ask. Especially if we see a KUNG LAO 1:3! Imagine that, Jerry!

Even a Kotal Khan might do it for me - or even the insect girl, what's her name?

And no, Sarah - trading Akuma for Scorpion, now or the the future, Shin or regular, does not seem like a good idea.

Maybe Sub-Zero will grow on me in the next few days but I think I'll be just happy enough with the 1:4 scale Sub-Zero which, hopefully, will see a release while we're still young.

Or youngish.

Interesting views here re: the exchange rate. I've seen how just a day makes a significant difference in the pound-euro exchange. I think Chris might be on to something...

Swap out section of base minus the blood is needed for those not displaying the spine rip I feel

Not photoshopped. The LED in the ice ball hits them and they glint. Almost feel like they have a light in them but they ont.

Will the Sub-Zero pre-order use the same pay pal buttons used for the second Akuma pre-order?

Despite Jerry attributing the size difference to Akuma's base and hair, it was still hard to believe until someone did a comparison in another thread.

I believe the MK bases are just simply shorter.

Only the lowest foot affects the height. Do you get taller when you raise one of your feet off the ground?
