Well you know how it is, the more articulation the shittier the detail usually. I'll wait for something a little less cheap looking to come out. It seems if you're not spending 80 bucks or more on figurines then you're getting total crap.

Wow, those look extremely terrible. I would never EVER buy one of those, and I am indeed a pretty hardcore MK fan. Less articulation with more quality would be way better. These are so shitty, haha.
Given the amount of articulation these figures have and the fact that they are being sold at Toys R Us, I can only imagine they are meant for play rather than display. There are all kinds of things wrong with that.

I'm the kind of person who really likes dumb stuff like this, but yeah, not so much.
I guess Scorpion and Sub-Zero look, though cheap, ok, but Raiden and Cage both seem like defects. I'll pass. Besides, I would want Scorpion's alt instead.

Are we back to the days of shitty 90's merchandising? I thought action figures looked a bit better now; these look nothing like the character models. They look down-right cheap.

Johnny Cage: Looks like Eddie Guerrero Scorpion: Looks high as shit. Sub-zero: Those eyes look like Japanese lady from a Disney movie Raiden: Neck. Also looking like a 70 year old dog rapist.
OUCH! A lot of people think these are ugly, I think they're pretty ok, and I like that it has articulation, these are figures not statues lol
Look at action figures made by McFarlane or NECA. The Halo or Assassins Creed lines, for example, are highly articulated but also very detailed and look fantastic.
These are not nice.. Shame, because I would have been very interested.

They are so bad! The Sub Zero one is the only one that looks even remotely normal, why does Scorpion have tiny eyes? Why does Johnny Cage look like Stallone? And as for Raiden, just why?

@matti00: It's actually kind of impressive that they can make them look so off considering how everything is digitally modeled these days. Were they not allowed to work off of the game assets for some reason? Really, where is there to fuck up?
