Ordered the EX

Now to contradict that The "skull head" does seem out of place to me.. it is out of context.. he only reveals his skull to burn the victim, not to throw a "get over here", it just doesn't quite seem to fit.. but am I going to take the EX over the reg, hell yes.. but in this case not because of how cool the EX was.. I have been waiting so long for MK merchandise that does justice, and now we have a sweet Scorpion statue and the MK line is under way, so hell yes I ordered

I wanted a skull head so badly, but now I have to put up with Iced Gems.

LOL once you see, you cannot UNSEE it.

Just looked again and yes please fix the skull head if it's not too late.. remove the flames if possible .. when Scorpion first unveild the "skull" head it looked so lifelike, I just feel the flame makes it too cartoony (and yes Ghost Rider-esque)

I have to say I don't think I'd mind if it were just the skull and no flames. I think a glow in the dark bare skull would rock.

I don't think it's terrible. Not authentic to the character but not bad as to pass on it. I'm guessing Jerry sculpted it like this so it can show the glow easily?

Overall the statue is great. No need to pass, EX or REG

I'm NOT bashing the piece...the regular looks good, but i was a bit let down by the EX head. Kinda sucks because i've been waiting for this piece for YEARS. I just think the skull looks a bit too happy for one of the meanest characters in the franchise.
I agree that the fire head is not what i expected...but I most likely will not display with the exclusive head, but exclusives gets more sometimes because it has two heads...if you have to sell it for some reason.

by the way you avatar of Shonuff is sweet....who's the master SHONUFF

The glow represents the lava so it's weird to see the skull glow.


My suggestion to Jerry would be to sculpt the flames to the side and to also have them transparent. Just my 2 cent

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
