I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

The stance had me confused, too, but I'm willing to bet that this statue is based on Sub-Zero's Ultimate MK 3 incarnation. There were two Sub-Zeros in that game - the unmasked and classic costume versions - and this statue looks exactly like the latter, including the stance. (All the ninjas in UMK3 were rocking the MK2 Scorpion stance from what I recall.) I could be way off, of course, but I'll be amazed if it isn't UMK3 classic Subs.

Jerry this stance was scorpions stance in every MK game. Sub zero only had scorpions stance in part 3. This pose was always known to be scorpions. Taking his stance away would be like taking his yellow color away.

many of the poses were pallete swap poses in MK3...to get the true 'klassic' feel he should have the MK1 pose, right now to me that pose screams scorpion, and overall it is scorpions pose, so kinda strange it was chosen for sub-zero......but nothing surprises me anymore, im dead inside to statues, nobody can get them right

Im very disapointed. I waited years for this mk license and its completely inacurate. Watching Sub Zero with Scorpions stance is plain akward. Sorry to say ill have to skip out on this inacurate pose. Mk 3 poses are not classics. MK1 and MK2 are the best poses for classics. This is Scorpions stance:





This is Sub-Zeros pose:





Jerry all you have to is tweak the stance to Sub Zeros real pose. My dreams of having the ultimate MK statues are now crushed with the inacuracy of the 2 most beloved mk characters.
