Both Mortal Kombat and early McFarlane figures used to depend on such. Can’t blame the toys for that.Īs always, the bloody variants are the winners.
(I particularly dislike it on the initial Raiden release.) It is, however, game-accurate. The army-green color on Kabal simply doesn’t look great on any of the figures. It wouldn’t practically work well IRL, but good enough for play and display. While there are no clips to do so here, enough of his armor has straps they can be hooked through for a reasonable facsimile. Kabal as a character typically holsters his hook swords on his back. Unsurprisingly, then, he may be the best McFarlane MK figure since Spawn himself.

It would be shocking if the Mortal Kombat designers had no familiarity with Spawn, so in a weird way this feels like coming full circle. In fact, he looks a lot like the company’s previous Raven Spawn character. Noob Saibot, who began life as simply an all-black pixel swap of the standard MK ninja base body, has evolved into something more McFarlane-esque. Shao Kahn in general is not designed for elaborate poses, though they can be had with some effort.

For the most part, the paint job does an excellent job of distinguishing the very similar shades of brown involved.

Shao Kahn - this color version, anyway - wears armor that features brown leather straps, and also has parts of his skin that look like brown alligator scales. There’s just one area where paint details feel missing. Weapons in this line are nicely detailed - note the small gold highlights on the chuk handles, the MK dragon on Kahn’s hammer, or the blood splatters on the appropriate variants. Speaking of Liu Kang, he comes with alternate karate chop hands, as well as gripping versions to hold the nunchuks. At least Kabal and Noob demonstrate a willingness not to get complacent and try new joints. Liu Kang in particular, with his baggy pants, might have copied Diamond Select’s Gimli and hidden some full ball joints under the codpiece. The elaborate hip joints still don’t boast a lot of upper thigh twist, which is odd considering the Kickstarter Spawn seemed to fix that issue.
