Thanks for posting pics bro to me he looks perfect if mine arrives like Chris' I'll be ecstatic. So far the skull/mask portrait is my favorite and I will be displaying mine with that head. I can not wait to have all four displayed with Goro in the background.

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

Making me wish I was into this stuff when all of the ninjas first went up for PO.

Why does the hooded skull have a big hole for the nose cavity?
The nose cavity on the full skull looks better.
Wondering why the nose cavity changed from skull to skull.

I know the pose of the mk9 has to do with it, but those don't even look the same scale (are Klassic and modern not supposed to be the same scale?) The mk9 looks tiny next to that! looks like I cant put my khan and Goro together lol

Both arm options look great. I think I prefer the regular (closed fist) set but it's close. The skull/mask head might be my favorite but I also like the regular head. The plain skull not so much for me. Those who got the ex got a lot of great display options which is really cool. While this piece looks great above the belt, the legs looking cheap based on current pics and the loincloth being a different yellow would be problems for me

The classics are apparently more 1/3.5 than 1/4.

Also with MK9 Scorp in a crouching pose, standing poses will always look bigger.

MK9 Scorp is in perfect 1/4 scale.

Skull heads do nothing for me on Scorpion, i only want him with his skull head if the statue is of him doing his Toasty Fatality.

I think he came out really well. The only thing I don't like is the different shade of yellow on the loincloth. It is really noticeable. Depending on how bad it looks in person, I may have to experiment with dyeing it. The yellow sharpie is an interesting idea.

I use sharpies with faded designs on my shirts a lot, #struggleisreal
I'm sure with a basic yellow sharpie blended in with the already yellow cloth,
it can only look better, even if it ends up darker imo it's better than being too light.
Just don't go ham on it scribbling like crazy,
I usually do a few layers of straight streaks, carefully not overlapping each line too much.
