Mezco‘s Mortal Kombat X line is out in the wild and we have been itching to get our hands on ’em. Yesterday we took at look at Sub-Zero and the line overall, today we are seeing what Scorpion is all about. Personally, I’m a Sub-Zero guy (from way back when MK 1 was in arcades). But, I do have to say, Scorpion takes the cake in this wave. He’s got a bit more movement than Sub-Zero since his waist twist is above the belt line. The swords and “Get Over Here” chains both allow for super kick ass poses. Removable face mask is a plus too. As we said yesterday, these figures are some of the best constructed in recent times, they just feel “right” in your hand. Coupled with awesome paint and sculpts, they are winners. Check out over 35 High Res shots of Scorpion after the break courtesy of Big Bad Toy Store!
Check back tomorrow as we round out Wave 1 with Raiden!

Great figs, really well done.
Yup, looks pretty darn good. The eyes seem a little lacking in detail, but the figure looks astounding otherwise. Psyched to see more.
I think I'll wait for the MK figures from Storm Collectibles. These don't impress me much and I prefer the klassic costumes anyway.
*sigh* The wait for the smaller MKX figures is killing me. Still some awesome shots there. One thing though...no ice ball? His hand looks like it has a hole for one to plug into.
I'm thinking of getting the 6 inch Sub-Zero though for display and giving the weapons to my 3.75 MK9 Subby. The ice hammer especially looks too small for the 6 inch version. It seems a lot bigger in the game.

That seems like an odd bummer. He should always have the ice ball.
Well I'd say you started these galleries with the best of the wave, I don't have Raiden so I can't say for sure but Scorpion is definitely not on par with Sub-Zero.
WOW! These look incredible!!!
I dont collect 6" figures but I might have to try and snag a Sub-Zero at least.
I've finally run into these in the wild, and sadly, I was a little underwhelmed. The details are incredible, but those eyes....ugh...they just kill the aesthetic for me. They are too small and poorly done, and since I don't have the steady hand to try and fix them myself, I ended up canceling my pre-order because of them.
I'm hoping the Previews exclusives coming up have better paints on the face.

Word of warning regarding Scorpion: his chain spears are made from a softer plastic and while this means they're harder to break it also means they will start to droop downward if you leave him in the "get over here" pose for actual display.
I would have liked his removable mask except for two things, it comes off very easily and the face underneath is just a normal face. Those are my only gripes with the figure and overall I'm really glad Mezco pulled these off.
You think that brushing some superglue or something onto the chains would strengthen them and help keep them from drooping?
And I have to agree about the unmasked face. It should definitely be rocking his beard (that everybody seemed to grow at once) but the mask probably wouldn't fit over it properly.
Saw these in TRU yesterday. They're pretty sweet...I might have to pick up a Sub-Zero. Can't wait for the eventual Kano.
I also don't see a picture in the gallery but you can store his swords on his back. Using pictures 4 and 27 for reference, you slip the blades in between the black tips of the straps. The strap ends function as little clips and the swords hold rather well. It was a little tough to do the first time I wedged them in on my figure but it becomes easier after that.
I love how these look but they are drastically undersized, especially for their price. If they were marvel legends or even dvuc sized i mighta dropped the hammer but i like my figs to be somewhat compatible and these just arent with really any other line.
I hope they make Sonya. Anybody else will be an added bonus.
Okay gotta run C.H.U.D. 2 is on.
Amazing pics! Really nice job!
I'm kinda surprised by some of the things you guys are saying on here. Especially considering the garbage that Jazwares put out.
Let's start with the eyes. When you see the packaged figures in the store, Mezco put a plastic cover over each figures head sculpt. The fact that you can see through this enough to judge the eyes is a shocker. Personally I like how they're done. When you look at Scorpion unmasked they look right. Maybe the mask throws you off.
Regarding the scale, they're 6" figures. No debate about it! What were you expecting?
Personally I'm very happy with these. I waited forever for MK figures(like you guys)and Mezco has far exceeded my expectations. If you guys want to pay a foreign company for overpriced figures go right ahead. I'm gonna stick with Mezco.
Oh, boy. It's very hard for me to resist 6" glow in the dark figs. Add to that the fact that it's Raiden and he actually features an Asian face sculpt (I'm still not sure how Christopher Lambert was cast as Raiden)...I guess I'll have to schedule rounds of visits to TRU in the coming weeks.
