Is There A Demand For Mortal Kombat Figures?

Posted on February 10, 2012 at 8:23 am by Joe Moore under Video Game Toy News

Syco Collectibles wants to know, is there really a demand for Mortal Kombat Action Figures? If you think there is, you can LIKE THIS POST on their Facebook Page. If they get 300+ Likes, they will begin to have serious discussions on doing Mortal Kombat Action Figures. When asked about what we could expect from them, action figure wise, they responded with this:

With the Action Figures, if we ever do them; They would be matching/exceeding in quality similar to how NECA do theirs. They will not be cheaply made, poorly painted, lacking in accessories or featuring excessive articulation which impairs the overall look. They would be articulated enough however, but we wouldn’t be talking 30+ points of articulation…

So let them know. If the currently available figures aren’t for you, these guys may be your best hope for newly designed MK figures.

    The Jazwares figures look TERRIBLE. While I appreciate what they tried to do, I would love them done more like NECA figures. They're at 199 LIKES as of this post, so hopefully they can get the right support. I would love to see Mortal Kombat handled a little bit better than they are now.

    Depends on the price for me, if they want around 50 for a figure that is 6-7' then no.

    I think there is a demand for them but also a demand for better QC and a better pricepoint,but yes the demand is there imo.

    The mention of "less articulation" has me a little concerned...*cough*..Avengers..*cough* but as long as the characters can move, bend, and twist like they can in the game I'd buy those figures.

    Also, I really hope they could (theoretically) swing both scales (3 3/4" & 6") so I could fit them in with some of the better looking jazwares figures...just sayin'

    Honestly I have no problem with what's out now (the smaller ones anyway) but if they can make NECA quality figures I'd be up for them.

    That'd be the only way I'd buy them- the current figs look like dollar store stuff.

    Hell yes there is demand! Looks like they're taking the SOTA approach to articulation. Could turn out well.

    I'd be happy with any improvement over Hasbro and Jazware's attempts. SOTA or NECA would be awesome!

    I'll like the page when I get home.

    As long as they churn out figures for the female characters, I'm all for it!! But I don't do social networking sites, so someone go ahead and 'like' the post for me!

    Not if they look piss poor.... like those ninjas.

    And remember, you'll be able to sell at least ONE Sheeva figure.

    Jazwares is really dropping the ball, but I'm not that familiar with Syco. I'd want the quality of sculpt, maybe 15 PoA, and some related accessories. Interchangable hands would be even better. And a price tag that doesn't make me roll my eyes and pass.
