I would go with Raiden, only because if you get Sub Zero, you have to get Scorpion.

Subzero looks way better plus I don’t trust those lighting thingys. Looks too fragile...

I would get sub-zero. The workmanship on Raiden himself looks nice but I worry about the lightning too as the above poster mentioned. I also don't really like the way it even looks with the floating pebbles and that cluster ball but that's just a personal preference.

Raiden looks more centerpiece-ish with that base design, but I second the concerns above. Sub was my main, and I just like icy environmental bases.

Comparing protos I think the Raiden as Balzin'

As far as production, who knows? Neither have been seen so could be a crap shoot either way.

Don't forget Sub-Zero has lights too.

You could do like me and PO all three...Raiden in the middle with Sub and Scorpion on either side.

...depends on who you're a bigger fan of and what you're looking for display wise. Both are great...I think Raiden is a better stand alone piece, but Sub looks amazing, too. I'm pretty sure Raiden takes up a lot more room, though.

Side note...anyone notice the Raiden ex is $50 less than the reg?

I wish I could get all three. That's exactly how I'd display them.

I noticed the same with Raiden and was wondering why the Ex was cheaper than the regular piece

Scorpion has always been my favorite. His statue is good, but I like how Sub-Zero and Raiden's turned out more.

I saw Sub-Zero back in 2016 at a NYCC (I also took a picture of it) and thought he looked great. I liked the colors and the base. He and the Howling Statues caught my eye. Not sure if it was the statue cases they were in, but they both appeared really big.

I also like Raiden. I think the effects are intense and I really like the lights and the lightning effects. Personally I'm not worried about the piece braking. (I have Venom P1 on order and that boy has my concern)

I'm leaning towards Sub-Zero at the moment. As much as I want Raiden, overall I think Sub-Zero looks a little better and for Raiden's Price, I'm concerned with the quality. Other Statue companies I'd be fine with, but I don't have enough experience with PCS
