Jerry, just to let you know that you rock!
I love this Scorpion statue, the pose is dead-on for him, the base looks awesome and I love all those little details!
That said, I have to take sides with most of the opinions here; I don't like the excl head
So we're both really hoping that you'll change that. And I must say, if anyone can, you can.
You're one of those few that really listen to their fans and you must know how much we appreciate that
I know that some people have a weird and hurtful way of expressing their thoughts but I think you know that we really like you and love your work

just needed to say that ^^ you did a wonderful job with this representation of Scorpion!

it is actually a customized figure with a ghost rider head.
Which means that a flaming skull would always garner comparisons with ghost rider regardless,which means that we need a plain skull to shut us whiners up!

People want a MK statue to represent the version that made the series what it is today. You want to look at the statue and feel the character you loved from the MK games. Most MK fans agree the series died after Ultimate MK3. Anything after that was pretty much garbage. The new game looks promising but this is a new age of video games and it could never be as popular as the original MK games.

That is why most of us want the classic costumes. We want a representation of the characters we grew to love so much. Not a newer designed version of them that has no meaning like the original versions.

Pretty simple to understand IMO and I really hope Jerry realizes this.

It's like if they made a remake of Star Wars. Who would buy a statue version of the newly cast Han Solo over the Harrison Ford / iconic version of it? See what I mean? Same with Vader or any other classic/iconic character.

I agree with everything you said here. I am wondering if PCS wasn't hamstrung by WB and not able to do a more classic version of Scorpion/the MK cast. It's unfortunate that the MK costumes change so much from game to game and they don't keep the more iconic look that the SF series seems to carry over for every iteration. With that said, I am passing on the MK line from PCS. Too much other awesome stuff coming from SS like the DC line and the Legendary Scale stuff.
