What do you do when you’ve created an amazing action figure with excellent sculpting and fantastic articulation, while also having the rights to produce toys from a property that has a character who is a color swap of several other characters? You reuse that body. And in the case of the Storm Collectibles Mortal Kombat Sub-Zero there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
If you go back to my review of Scorpion you’ll see just how surprisingly happy I am with that figure. And I say surprisingly only because I wasn’t really asking for a Mortal Kombat line. Sure, I know what Mortal Kombat is but I was never a junkie for it. Not like my buddy Phil, who over the course of a few years broke several Playstation controllers because of fighting games. Thrown at floors, through sheet rock, and once he just snapped one in half. That’s probably another reason I never got heavy into those games, I’m a smack talker and with frustration levels already running high I didn’t want to push it even further. I dislike physical pain.
Anyway…
Like I said, I loved the Scorpion, so I already knew I’d like the Sub-Zero. More, even, because I like blue better than yellow, so it was a no-brainer. But I also like his accessories a little better. Now, are we going to get more of the ninjas? I have a feeling we will, we just gotta.
