MK1 license is more exciting to me than MK11 was because of the more classic-style looks/colors and characters in the game. But I can't help but feel like Todd will do exactly what he did with MK11, which means it won't be worth it for me to start collecting the line unless I just want Sub-Zero and Scorpion and a few other favorites. Plus some (too many) repaints. Safe bet unfortunately. I still want to know WTF happened with Storm… I was getting worried when they started acquiring all these obscure licenses. They were spreading themselves thinner every year. But I saw someone mention here that it’s a WB thing? Either way, someone ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) ed up and it’s a shame. I’m still hoping for a miracle… for Storm to reacquire MK and come back with a vengeance. I’m too invested financially with Storm to restart with another company. Maaaaybe Jada Toys?? They won’t look as good as Storm… but if they do the Klassics and keep the price like the Street Fighter ones… 🤷♂️ It's a real shame and loss if Storm doesn't reacquire the license. There's a real market for the classic characters, and to get so far and then stop is brutal.

No one wanted Joker, endless Spawns, repaints of Scorpion, Baraka, Raiden etc. They could nearly have covered the roster if not for the repaints and guest characters. Now with MK1 I believe they're only doing statues, no sign of figures so far.

I get there have to be repaints to pay for molds and new tooling, but Joker and Spawn felt like crap moves because they were clearly done because it was easy. They should have only shown up if we were getting a lot of other characters, even if they were cheaper for Todd to insert. Just another MK line that feels incredibly incomplete at the end of the day, made even worse by the non-MK additions.
