Doh! - just spotted that it's the Collector-Verse guys in the photo, with Jerry M.
They missed a trick. They should have added the words Collector-Verse to the rear of their t-shirts.

Update: There is a 22minute video on Facebook of Collector-Verse chatting to Jerry about Shao-Kahn at WonderCon 2018
They talk about other statues also, including Judge Dredd & D.D.Dragon
I'm in no way connect to Collector-Verse. I just just hit join group button on Facebook

During the video Jerry mentions:
Shao-Kahn is about 97% complete
They plan to add a light-up feature
The MK dragon logo on the rear of the chair was hand chiseled by Jerry into the resin cast (not 3D modeled)

NEWS: There are 2 more MK statues in the works
..sure hope that includes Sonya Blade

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Honestly, I'm not in love with it. I'm happy its finally happend, but the pointed right arm is killing it for me. I was hoping for a more laid back arrogant type posture in his throne. It also feels like his waist is very narrow. His right arm, for me, would be better placed resting at his side. Maybe there could be a switch out arm or torso for that pose?

Either way, it's nice, just not jaw dropping. Something else just isn't doing it for me, can't put my finger on it. But I think it may have to do with the size of the throne. Seems a little small for someone like Kahn. I always imagined him in a fairly large throne, that's what really drives home the wow factor in throne pieces like SS's Thanos, XM Magneto ect. From a distance, it looks like he's sitting in a chair, not a "Throne". I think there should me more space between the armrest and his legs. Right now they're butted right up against them, feels like he's being squeezed into the throne. Overall, the throne should be wider and include a wider base footprint. Just my thoughts and first impressions, the rest of the sculpt looks great though.

I want to love it, it's just not there yet for me.
