Storm Collectibles - Mortal Kombat - Raiden, 1/12 Action Figure

I was really hoping for Kintaro, but when Storm announced Motaro, I pre-ordered him IMMEDIATELY.First off: the box is GIGANTIC (locust in standard sized box for comparison.) Motaro himself stands around 10ish inches tall and maybe around 16 inches long with the tail.Pros:He comes with a skeleton that is fully articulated that is around the 7 inch mark. The skeleton (I believe) is the same mold used for the Golden Axe skellies, but I don't have those so I can't say for certain.The posability of both figures is really good, especially for a bulky figure like this. He comes with an alternate head, 4 extra hands and a special move blast effect. The skeleton has 4 pairs of alternate hands as well.The tail is wired and can be posed around, the wire inside feels pretty sturdy, so I don't think it will break too easily.One set of the hands is made for holding the skeleton by the head so that's awesome- hypothetically you could get him to hold another character, but you'd probably have to careful of the weight distribution.Cons: the skeletons jaw has been glued shut, and Motaro himself doesn't have a stand, and because he's front heavy, it's hard to get him to stand in rearing/kicking poses. That's it, that's my only complaint.Overall? I would 100% recommend getting this figure, especially if you're looking for those classic characters. I pre-ordered him at $110 I think, which is pretty spendy, but you're getting a big figure. Plus ayou get a fully articulated skeleton figure (that stands on its own!) Basically for free.A must have, 100%! 5 stars!

Highly recommend great action figure my first mk collection character more to come!!!

This is an amazing figure by Storm Collectibles. The fan-favorite Scorpion has great sculpt, proportions, accuracy (to the Mortal Kombat 3 version), and aesthetic. Extras include alternate mask, hands, spear (which is different from their first generation Scorpion), and blood/fatality effects. My favorite part of all is the articulation. Storm Collectibles seems to have listened to fans and fixed the issue with the leg articulation that plagued their first generation ninja figures. Thanks to these fixes, this figure can hold some dynamic poses.If there is one downside to this figure (and this is really a minor gripe), is that the paintwork is not 100% solid. The line work on the sash (or belt?) type thing is not top quality. There are also issues with the paint work on the shin guards. My figure came with a couple of scuff marks (black marks on top of the yellow paint). Minor issues aside, this figure is nearly flawless. It is definitely worth a buy for MK fans, even if they are not actively collecting this entire figure line. I am hoping they will give all of the other ninjas the same Mortal Kombat 3 treatment as they did with Scorpion (for sure they are working on an MK3 Sub-Zero figure).

This is my first Storm Collectibles Figure.Pros:Articulation: You can get this guys into any Kung Fu pose pretty easily and costume doesn’t hinder articulation muchSculpt: this dudes beefy. Probably benches at least 350, maybe 400.Paint: paint is clean and he has a slight shade over the muscles.Price: I’ve seen these Storm Collectibles figures go for around $250 on the aftermarket so considering I bought Reptile for $75 all this time after he came out, I think it’s pretty good deal for what you get. Make sure you get him as soon as you can as these figures tend to skyrocket later onCons:Space: as a in box collector who usually takes figures out once, I find the box is pretty big to store but I also realize that I’m in the minority and that this won’t apply to most people

Beautiful and awesome collection

The figure came in great condition, it boasts attention to detail, and great durability when posing. The versatility of articulation isn’t too extreme. So don’t expect wild dynamic poses outside of what you’ve seen in the games. But some cool wild poses are possible.My only issue I have is I wish it had more accessories like more acid or maybe even some blood effects.

This is one of the greatest figures I've bought. Its durability is absolutely insane. I was trying to bend its arm up past its torso and, unlike most figures I've seen, the arm came out of the socket before it ever even stressed the plastic in the slightest. These Mortal Kombat Storm Collectibles seem to be built to have interchangeable parts and effects, so that might play a factor into their durability. Regardless, the paint and poseability alone are worth every penny I paid for this figure. This is a 5/5 product.

Overall looks super good. One single design flaw that revolves around Storm Collectibles, but does not detract from the amazing figure. Those Elbow joints look terrible. But the rest of it makes up for that.Included Accessories with the Rabbit etc, really set this one off.
