Bats is billed at 13.5 on their site. Haven't weighed him myself but he's pretty heavy so sounds right

You should check your facts mate.

I had the Rhino Ex and made a review, weighted every single piece, here the weights:

Quote:
Base: 2,5kg
Body: 2,8kg
Regular head: 550g
Exclusive head: 640g
For a total of 5.8 - 5.9 kg. Which is more than the 5kg I wrote before, but still much less than your 10kg. At the time, I even said that this weight debate is pointless, Rhino was awesome.

The Sideshow Reaper Legendary Scale is like 90cm tall, and it was 9kg. Nobody complained.

The 1/4 PCS ninjas are listed at 8.5kg, they're bigger than 1/4 and I dare anybody say they are not solid or sturdy.
10kg on this 1/3 Scorpion is definitely acceptable in my books

Anybody wondering about the pose and switchouts for Sub Zero and Reptile? For sure they will have similar themed bases, and that's the easy part.
For Sub Zero, I really liked the icy arms. 2x switch out icy arms would be great. Also, a switch out raised arm holding a bloody skull and spine would be awesome too. Light up led eyes too, or a switch out head with no pupil eyes like in the MK9 iteration. Of course the base should have light up and be an icy base, like the Sideshow Arthas.

For Reptile, I don't have great ideas. I don't like the 1/4 reptile head and the acid spit to be honest. Switch out partially invisible arms made in clear resin could be nice. Even the base is not easy, probably a grass base, but hard to put a light up that makes sense unless you put some exotic flora that glows to justify it. Also, if they do a reptile switch out head, hope it's going to be the full velociraptor head:

What about the acid spit and the tounge as EX for Reptile?



Don't think I can continue the 1/3 line after Scorpion, I will be skint otherwise. Unless it will be two years before we see the next 1/3?

i hope subz or reptile arent pallet swaps and at least have some switch out arms and poses. Jerry can stick to the museum pose just make it epic with them holding a spine or something that shows a fatality just occurred.

Acid spit and tongue don't look good on a statue imho, they'd look cheap and pretty lame, and wouldn't fit with the static pose.

Same here anyway. Scorpion and Subz are a must, since I skipped the 1/4. Reptile, I can live without him.

Base should be the bottom of the Pit 1 for Reptile. All the spikes etc...Ed Boons decapitated head to stick on a spike as an EX

I wouldn't mind seeing Reptile in a pose similar to this. Switch out right hand holding human mask and switch out reptilian head. I always liked the slightly goofy/cute head from MK2.
