    Storm Collectibles are single handedly one of the best figure companies, extremely underrated in my opinion too. What really sold them for me too was their recent makings of soft goods for their figures. I only own 2 Storm Collectible figures and those are the Baki Hanma and Yujiro Hanma figures from the GOATED series Baki The Grappler. They are definitely some of my favorite figures because they can seriously do any and everything you could ever wish a 1/12 scale figure could do! From the soft plastic to the immaculate articulation. This Scorpion figure, as well as their new Ryu figure is something I really want to get sometime in the future! Edit: It was worth getting him for 175, I was able to get Yujiro for retail thankfully, Baki on the other hand, I had to get in aftermarket and most people sell him for like $200+. I was lucky to find a killer price of $165 (in my state too!)

    Yes, just a few days ago I saw it was announced that Storm Collectibles lost the Mortal Kombat license. I'm hoping that means that maybe Jada Toys picked it up and considering how great their Street Fighter figures have been, I'd be very happy if that turns out to be the case. Speaking of Jada Toys, if you're into Street Fighter at all, those figures are particularly great, especially for $25.

    Master Sirdork, this video is really awesome🤩. I am a big fan of storm collectibles😍. Currently there are sixty movable figures of this brand. I really hope that you can take more photos of storm collectibles in the future. Action figure 🙏, and I think you made a great decision to buy this Mortal Kombat Figure for $175👍, because it is more expensive in Asia, and according to rumors, the Mortal Kombat Figure series seems to have a new copyright agent, so storm Collectibles will cancel them from the official website, so these products in the past will become sky-high prices in the future😆

    Very nice! This is basically an updated version of the first MK figure in the line, so the engineering is much better. Sadly, the skull head is slightly off, like you mentioned. There was a Sub-Zero shown with this mold, but like many of the Storm MK prototypes and teases, I’m not sure we’re going to see them now that the license has disappeared from their site. Luckily there are other Sub-Zeros in the line that look good with this guy! Glad you like the figure, the old school costumes and great articulation made this my favorite figure line. I’m sad to see it go.

My view is that for as good as it is, it's not the greatest likeness to the source material, it has some minor issues (too bulky, the "H" elbow joints, the scale), and we'll likely get a version of this character, with this look, sometime soon from another company which will rival this one (fingers crossed).
