How many years ago did they show him at SDCC? 4? Hopefully this means they are finally ready to move on him.

All I see is a Machamp custom haha
Great..looking forward to the pics!!!
Where is Kitana!!!!????

All i want to know is why these releases are so darn slow. Five characters in 18 months. Two every three months would be perfect. At the current rate it will take decades to get the full compliment of fighters. I'm guessing Smoke and Rain will drop before the year is out and new body types wont appear till 2019.
Can't wait to see all six+ of its separate-character repaints, because apparently MK is the laziest fighter ever made. I can see why they had to add all the gore as a cheap selling point.
At least mk palletswaps play totally differently.
A lot of mk’s palletswaps were due to the tremendous amount of memory it took to store the digital actors. By changing the colors, they were able to make more characters without committing more memory to graphics.
The gore and fatalities were added to give it that R rated 80’s Hong Kong film look. A lot of the early martial arts films had ridiculously exaggerated violence. Midway games wanted to attract college kids to arcades. To them, Street Fighter was a cartoony kids game.
The main point being made was that memory limitations at the time only allowed for so much to be done. So in MK1 and MK2, they palette swapped the ninjas to add extra characters. As those memory limitations became less of a problem, those color swaps were given more distinct designs, especially as the series moved to 3D.

Pitfighter sprites were 1/2 the size of the Mortal Kombat sprites, and also half the frame rate. I remember one of the 90's gaming mags doing an in-depth comparison of all the digital actor games, and comparing them. Pitfighter really was closer to Pong than anything else. Several other games had digital actors, but out of all the games that did that, only Mortal Kombat still exists today (and funny enough, they dropped the digital actors for mocap!).
Also, when they dropped the palletswapped ninjas in MK3, having finally achieved the memory allowances to allow a larger selection of characters, the fandom screamed bloody murder! So "Ultimate MK3" was released to soothe the wounded. It's kind of like the Decepticon jets. Starscream, thundercracker, skywarp, dirge, ramjet, and thrust are all basically the same toy, some with minor differences, but they get the parents (or adult fanboys) to buy the same toy 6 times... or more, now with acidstorm and sunstorm added to the mix.
So what some call "lazy programming", I call prelude to brilliant marketing savvy!

I'm glad the later games got rid of the fists on his green energy blasts, it was kinda weird that Goro was going all Shogun Warriors on players.
This looks amazing. Not sure about the price. $90 seems extreme to me for a figure. Kahn at least had a throne. This is "just" Prince Goro. I was expecting $70 or $75.
Will give credit where it's due... this looks a lot better than the Hasbro GI Joe Goro I had for 20 years.
