Totally with you there bro. Like any toy line there is room for improvement but these are damn great!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour I actually started collecting them cause everytime you show them in your videos my jaw just drops! I just got the Motaro so for my first SC MK figure, I'm starting strong haha

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour i wish mcfarlane wolde reveal anything mk thats not a crossover figure the last new charter we got was nightwolf

Big nerdy you took the words out of my mouth. I’m already having such a difficult time limiting myself to marvel legends. I can’t tell you how many times I came across a dope ass DC figure and told myself that I could just get one, that’s not a big deal. Thankfully, so far I’ve been able to talk myself out of it before actually buying it. Because deep down I know that I’m just digging a new rabbit hole that’s only gonna get bigger and bigger.. then this awesome guy here is showing me how badass all these MK figures look on display and my gears are turning. Damn you Dave and you’re incredible model behavior! Just like yourself nerdzoic, he puts out fantastic content. I’d love to see the two of you do some type of collaboration in the future. Dave, you’re the shit. And nerdy, nWo 4 life my friends

Just like I said to my friends at Enron, “If I’m going down, I’m taking you all with me!”

@@raidernation9920 I'd like to know which DC figures you've been interested in or thinking about but have resisted (and any you haven't managed to resist, from any series or franchise)! I love learning about awesome looking figures, sometimes I haven't even heard of them! Storm Collectibles has some cool DC stuff that I saw recently, like their Lobo figure!

That’s it! I always remember the lore but get the names confused!

The price is justified in the quality but maaaan it’s a big price!

Oh they're great and grusome!

Definitely a lot more like this to come!

Aw thanks man, making these videos puts me in a good mood!

Hey thanks man, I quickly got hooked on them!

Man thank you for such a great comment. You know your Mortal Kombat. I have the similar fear that we might not see the full set from Storm. We don't need everyone, just the 1 and 2 roster are the essential ones. Since Kung Lau is out soon and we've seen prototypes of Liu Kang and Kitana I have high hopes we'll finish the set!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour yes me too. And thanks for the compliment, i've been a hardcore MK fan for over 25 years. lol. games, comics, novels, etc.

I'm sincerely hoping the release all the ninjas on the new SDCC body so I can finally collect them!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour They probably will, I wish to own the SDCC Scorpion, it is indeed improved, only downside is he doesn't come with an MK1 mask as an option.

Oh man I would love to have something like that. The forest would be amazing!

I'm growing impatient!

That is some Model Behaviour approved splurging.

Yeah man, that’s the only word to describe these guys!

Oh yeah, playing the games on Sega is totally my childhood.

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour especially with that blood code!

Hey thanks man, I just instantly fell in love with this line!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour amazing taste

Time to sell my old Goro I think!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour awesome of you to respond man. I love your channel. I’ve binged it a number of times

Oh man I’m sure the dio will look great. Do you have Instagram? I’d love to see it!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour I don't but i've posted pics of the work in progress on the storm collectables group on facebook and on the mortal kombat figures facebook group :) Protip, don't make them out of MDF, requires hours of carving haha

I think you're right!

Hey there. I prefer the Storm figs because of the 90's designs.

Lol donations are gratefully received! :)

Yeah lol

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour i actually do have almost every classic ninja besides noob because he's the hardest in my opinion getting scorpion on the 3rd of february

Dude they are easy to miss. I wish I had known about them years ago!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour lol darn it there too high now man I’m good 🤣

Man I should have know you'd be an MK afficionado! :) Mortaro has absolutely been pre-ordered! I would love to see Kitana, Melina and Sindel, heck I'd love to see all the ladies but now that I think about it especially Sheeva. She would look amazing. Basically if it's a character from 1-3 then bring em on!

​@@DisplayingModelBehaviour Oh you're right! Sheeva is totally the one that would look awesome in your collection! Yeah, definitely, and that shouldn't even be too difficult for them to make, and would be really unique and fun. I've been thinking about my time playing those Mortal Kombat games since I was very little, haha I complain about how kids are being left alone to be on the internet and might see all kinds of bad stuff, but then what the heck was I doing playing Mortal Kombat all day and going to the arcade and playing Aliens games and then at home trying to get all the different fatalities and stuff haha, I loved it though, and even my family seemed to love Mortal Kombat lol, and the song when the film came out, my mother and I used to exercise with that and then later do stuff like Tae Bo with that music lol and say "Mortal Kombat!" to each other in that voice haha, it was a big hit and so many people seemed to accept it, I would show the different sorts of weird things in Mortal Kombat to my sister, like Babalities and stuff lol which I'd really like some weird accessories for, alternative heads and bodies for figures performing the moves or even semi transparent glowing animal accessories for their Animality transformations, haha, Totems were like a big thing at the time almost, even Metal Gear Solid mentioned them (and I was thinking Storm would be a nice company to try to make Metal Gear Solid figures, I can really imagine a Vulcan Raven made by them in their style and they seem to really like Muscle guys a lot. I had long associated myself with the Coyote and the Fox, and then when I saw the character Gray Fox, which I spelled Grey Fox, I think I've been using variations of names with Fox in it since then! Every Mortal Kombat 3 had a kind of spirit animal form i.ytimg.com/vi/MYvv64CEnc4/hqdefault.jpg they tried to incorporate it into the 1997 film kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7FhrKeTpp-9nYU.html lol kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fZ1oh9OU3rLFg5c.html and oh yeah, for your display, I saw this set on Ebay of the dark floating monk guys that were in the background sometimes i.ebayimg.com/images/g/ssMAAOSwgzVfzCU8/s-l1600.jpg you might be able to find something better or garb some cheaper figures in something if you ever wanted those guys to somehow be around (maybe even a bunch of Emperor Palpatine cloaked molds around lol), it reminds me of the "Tainted Coil Druids" from the game "Brutal Legend" and many other similar tropes, where a magical warlord sorcerer Emperor guy is surrounded by various cloaked or mysterious seeming religious looking figures, I guess maybe that was sort of based on the Return of the Jedi even, and they gave Thanos at least one character like that in the films marvelcinematicuniverse.fandom.com/wiki/The_Other but it seems to be a widespread trope that I might like, or maybe I like the consistency of it, appearing in so many different things, so that apparently every evil gigantic hulking Warlord King messing around with magic and sorcery has a bunch of these magicians around him goldenaxe.fandom.com/wiki/Magician possibly even based on Pharaoh in the Bible or something, and then one central evil sorcerer at his side, which would be Shang Tsung in this case, and Queen Sindel as a kind of mixture of the captured Queen or Princess against her will and the evil sorceress or witch in appearance, like Skeletor and Evil-Lyn, these sorts of images keep repeating a lot in stuff, and usually the Warlord guy has some kind of mixed allegiance "Daughters" like Thanos and Gamora and Nebula or Kitana in Mortal Kombat or even She-Ra with Hordak and Shadow Weaver, and even in Voltron with the Emperor Zarkon and Haggar i.pinimg.com/originals/fa/56/fd/fa56fd73b0993014196b7cff28e97f39.jpg if you ever watched Voltron, you might consider watching and comparing the older memories of Voltron to the newer Voltron show that Netflix released for another possible video, but it might be too boring for you! Often, there is also a "Prince" of some sort too, like in Castlevania there is Alucard, Voltron there is Prince Lotor (who seems to be based on Elric of Melnibone) i.pinimg.com/736x/4a/ef/ff/4aefff0a912c81b3c676fd242081f351--first-crush-s-toys.jpg and pbs.twimg.com/media/C5y_Zu3XQAUX8Ae.jpg:large and i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/hostedimages/1429718651i/14623643.jpg So in this case that would be muc.fandom.com/wiki/Kahn_Family "2 Rain: We all seem to think Rain is actually son of King Jerrod, but once Jerrod was killed he become Shao's son, right? Rain also called himself "Prince of Edenia"" mortalkombat.fandom.com/wiki/Rain so whoever that guy is lol, apparently he started out in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 "Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 is a fighting game in the Mortal Kombat series, released in arcades in 1995. It is an update of Mortal Kombat 3 and later received its own update in the form of the console-only Mortal Kombat Trilogy.",

Part 2 oh wow, we really need to get hold of that trilogy haha, so many fond memories! Even talking about all this right now and saying we need to get hold of it is giving me weird deja vu, as if I had a dream of this long ago or something before you even made this channel lol Nintendo 64 Mortal Kombat Trilogy! Wow, that sounds like enough reason to get hold of an old Nintendo 64 or something haha, I haven't played any of the Mortal Kombat games since maybe the 90s or something, but they left such an impression forever, have been referred to by me and even my family forever lol, they were such a huge part of the general public knowledge and pop culture of the time somehow. If I said "Scorpion" and "Get Over Here" lol my whole family would remember and know what I was talking about haha in the United States where I grew up, the Mortal Kombat Ninjas were also a big Halloween costume, though I always liked to be unique sorts of weird and obscure things, but everyone seemed to be dressed as this or that Ninja so often. So many Giant Warlords to collect. Even Shredder has a daughter and there seem to be similar tropes involved with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the "Silver Samurai" from Marvel and a bunch of stuff! I had almost totally forgotten about all that stuff, or all the various Fatalities and funny stuff in Mortal Kombat, particularly Mortal Kombat 3 which seemed maybe the most jokey of the games with graphics and backgrounds and ideas that really impressed me, gosh I liked it so much and played it so much as well, right at home! I loved also that it seemed to be lighthearted and that the game designers seemed to like to surprise and entertain the player, like it felt a lot more close to the audience in many ways, like they were reaching out to provide people with these little jokes and pranks and whatever, a feeling I don't get at all from modern games which seem so much more distant and remote from the players, with a big gap between the designers and their communication to the players, it is kind of weird, it was like there was a smaller gap between the designers and the players or artists and audience in the media of the past as compared to currently (even though a lot of the time they are on social media now). Even "They Might Be Giants" had like a hot line number people could call to hear songs and stuff or something, lol gosh, I was so happy in the 90s what the heck! Ignorance was truly bliss, everything seemed a lot more innocent, I loved the music, the comedy seemed a lot better with people like Conan O'Brien in the U.S.A. and Mystery Science Theatre 3000 making fun of films and great video games, Arcades (I can't even find Arcades anymore and all the fun old games which are fun to this day are barely available anywhere). It seems like things started getting slightly worse towards the end of the 90s, but then really consistently worse throughout the 2000s, and then even worse from 2009 or so, and argh! It is so nice that your content frequently brings up all these wonderful things, I'm not even sure many people who were too little or from after that time could even understand how impactful that period was for us and that specific kind of enjoyment, I would find it hard to believe any of the stuff they grew up with later on during the dark times (lol) would ever give the same feelings, because I was still pretty young during that stuff and it was already apparent to me that the newer stuff was seemingly getting worse and less enjoyable, and I was already wanting to go back. Even just watching the old games like on the Shadowserg boss fight videos, even if I haven't even seen or played those games, it is immediately clear to me how perfectly simple and beautiful and pleasing they were, like they totally hit the right spot visually, the sound, everything, and I think people would absolutely love to play them and enjoy them even to this day, no matter how silly or outdated people think it is. I've seen videos where they are destroying beautiful traditional homes and architecture in Japan kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n5d0g5ip1bOXiWw.html in favor for totally ugly utilitarian cramped buildings with no charm whatsoever, so there seems to be a kind of spirit of greed or something that is also contributing to so much ugliness and the eradication of whatever made things seem so much more fun in the past. People are seemingly taking for granted beauty, or have forgotten how simple things would need to be to be "cool" and satisfying, or playful in their corniness, like even the Mortal Kombat games have become these long boring dramas from what I've seen and have lost a lot of their "stupid" kind of charm, trying to be big soap operas rather than just a collection of mysterious story with gaps for our imaginations to get activated by, that is willing to be ridiculous without actually making fun of itself in the way things seem to do now, it was like some kind of better combination of elements, it managed to be serious or even scary while being silly and not actually trying hard to make itself a joke, it was an amazing achievement, I haven't seen anything like it really in modern things, maybe the last things that were like that were still things from close enough in time like Metal Gear Solid stuff and Silent Hill stuff. It was sort of the way of the 90s though, that things had a humor about them while still being serious enough or with high stakes and not actually making itself seem like a total joke or waste of time. With such a simple story, and a few backgrounds and things, they conveyed this story that I could sort of actually feel, of how Earth is being attacked and destroyed and these heroes are in a devastating battle for their lives which is really difficult against these extremely violent monsters, and there was still room for ridiculousness that still had an impact that felt like an accomplishment. When I play modern games (which is barely ever) I can scarcely feel anything, it seems so disconnected and almost like the game is playing by itself and I'm barely involved or contributing, whereas when I tried to play older games again, even really old games with terrible graphics, I felt so much more involved. It is like the graphics barely matter, or are a distracting over-kill or something, and all the drama feels like these characters are just doing their own thing and aren't even me really. So strange and different, but nothing changed in me, since those old games work exactly the same on me as they did originally, whereas the new ones never seem to hit the right spot. So those older designers really deserve a tremendous amount of praise for their real achievements which I think might be somewhat overlooked or taken for granted entirely by people today. The toys today though are a lot better in some ways than the toys of the past, but the toys of the past sometimes have better visual appeal to me, better colors, design elements, fun little gimmicks, and I think they should look back and take into account those sorts of appearances and update them in more beautiful forms, but the colors were great in older things and a lot of the time are being dulled down more or like people are feeling embarrassed or something and trying to make things "cool" and "toned down" to excess. Even visually in some of the new games I can barely see what is going on, just like the films, they are often so dark and dim and just a mess of ugly graphics jumbled together. I think it is almost necessary that creative people like yourself succeed and somehow start putting together and making artistic things that remind people and "teach em' how its done", because you've often brought up similar points and issues, and seemingly no one is putting their efforts towards making much of anything to try to remedy the drought in what people actually seem to still want or would love (which they might not even know, since they were born after that older stuff became less fashionable). They haven't even seemingly abandoned the tropes or anything, it is just "Here is everything again, but worse, and harder to visually distinguish" "Studies have shown that if the audience can't actually see the monster, they are less likely to be able to make fun of it.".

Yeah they’ve been teased literally for years

I know you're not brother, I know you're not ;)

Ah man you can send the repeats over me. I’ll take em! :)

Thanks man. Storm made some bangers!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour they're awesome I have to admit that I used to have 3 Tekken characters 2 Street Fighter characters and one King of Fighters character I wanted to buy the Mortal Kombat ones but they're just too expensive for me to get I sold them all to a comic book store and made really good money off of them

Bring on Kintaro!

Got him!

Oooh that’s a good idea.

That's the price right there.

It’s a deal, it’s steal… :)

I think it's the younger brother. Is that Bi Han?

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour no Kuai Liang is. Bi Han is the older bro.

They would make a lot of people happy!

Wow thats alot

You got to get them when they release or in some cases pre order. I unfortunately missed the Shao Kahn and he goes for above $400 in most cases. When he released he was just over a $100 I believe 🥲

Yeah the instant inflation is insane. I’ll wait for when we hopefully get re-releases on the new body.

remember when these things were accessible to kids?? now $300.. that's so sad. as sad as a world without Farts!

the inflation is almost unjustified i really don't think they make enough in the first place which makes them rarer i guess but as a hardcore mk fan not being able to get any of the classic ninjas is kinda fucking dumb i get goro and shao kahn being rare but common. i remember back in like 2016/2017 when i got 1 mk1 sub zero off of amazon for retail and thought nothing out it and then watching people go insane after the ninjas were being deleted off the markets.

Dude as soon as I saw the Sun Zero accessories I knew exactly what to do! Great call! :)

Symbiote 3 pack was ordered! :)

Lol that exactly how I felt! :)

Oh go on, treat yourself!

Was it acapella or did I add some reverb? Only my sound mixer knows for sure ;)

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour Bravo 👏👏

That spelling of combat hurts my brain.

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour sorry completely forgot about the K in Kombat.

It's really difficult. That's the one big floor of the figure. You can get him standing but it's not easy!

Definitely agree, I wish he had those tiny hole indentations at the bottom of his feet so I could use a Neca stand for him.

I’m very interested to see the MK 11 Goro and Shao Khan

Lol ha! Gotcha! :)

If I can help just one farting butt then it’s all been worthwhile.

I can totally see that. He’s a real sleeper hit!

Hopefully they’ll all get new SDCC versions.

Ah gotcha, thanks for clearing that up!

Yeah it’s getting shaggy again. I would love an MK3 Style Liu Kang, I think he looked coolest there.

Baraka is also the most uniquely designed out of my top three Mk characters ermac,reptile, and Baraka

If I end up getting more I really want Cyrax and maybe a sub zero to start with

Good call on Baraka!

Those bloody variants look really cool!

An that’s just what I got in my sky-rocket ;)

What else does it come with? It comes with a gold-plated Rolls Royce, as long as you pay for it.

Storm is an expensive mistress but man she’s pretty!

Great pick ups!

Ah yes that was MK Mythologies.

I bought them when they were cheaper

Lol that’s kinda good enough for me! :)

It could be either Bi Han Or Kuai liang i guess. As this version featured in Ultimate MK3 as Classic Sub Zero. Which could be based on either Mk1 or Mk2 But updated to MK3 style Gi.

I’ll tell you after I watch it with the gang on Friday! :)

Many online retailers still stock them. If not, eBay!

Easily, the dude rips peoples arms off. It’s not even close! :)

Pretty crazy!

Pretty much same for me except all I collect is ML.

Same! The scale is considered (by storm) 1/12 scale... No one's buying that, the figs are like almost 2x a normal 1/12 scale figure. I dislike the proportion, they seem over stretched and fat, not that there's anything wrong but just doesn't fit my taste.

Yeah they definitely scale bigger than Legends. Goro looks amazing squaring up to the Hulk though!

I was tempted by that!

Ah man, he's my most wanted. Funnily enough I love Reptile.

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour 8 months later after I commented and I just ordered the MK2 Reptile finally. 😄 finally found one under $300.

I can appreciate that. They seem to be refining the ninja design as they go.

Their not?

Those are the more modern ninjas you can see. Not the originals.

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour oh ok thanks

I think it has to be Cyrax but they’re all great! :)

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour YES ! The cyber-ninjas (I call them "Storm-trooper ninjas") are AMAAAAZING !!

Hmmm deception was a great game and turning point gif the franchise but I’d say my figure collects only needs to cover the first trilogy for maximum nostalgia impact.

I’ve been working on my impressions!

Yeah that’s very true. The figures are good but there are flaws!

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour yeah for a while I loved them until I realized how ermac and rain never appear in the mk1 ninja costumes only mk3 style

But to paraphrase Harvey Keitel in Pulp Fiction “Just because I am a charscter, doesn’t mean that I have character!” :)

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour LMBO

I css as n totally appreciate that. It’s the price you put on nostalgia over figures. It helps having a good contact in Hong Kong to reduce prices too ;)

Thanks bud!

The MK2 is definitively the most iconic but I’m loving the new one!

Because we’re both ludicrously handsome!

Supply and demand man.

@@DisplayingModelBehaviour then they’d make even more money if they idk made more of each figure

They certainly do cost a lot.
