Okay, so I’ve been wanting to get my hands on some Mortal Kombat statues for a while now. I finally decided to take the plunge and see what I could find. My journey started, like most things these days, with a simple search.
The Hunt Begins
I started browsing around, checking out different stores and seeing what was out there. Initially, I was a little overwhelmed by the sheer number of options. There are so many characters, and different poses, and scales…it was a lot to take in!
- First, I looked at some general collectible shops online.
- Then I checked out some specialist figure stores.
- Finally,I looked into some forums about other people who collected these.
Narrowing Down the Options
After a couple of hours of browsing,I decided to focus on a few specific characters. I’ve always been a huge fan of Scorpion and Sub-Zero, so they were at the top of my list. I also thought Raiden looked pretty cool, so I added him to the mix.
I found a few different versions of each character. Some were smaller, more affordable figures, while others were huge, detailed statues that cost a pretty penny. I wrestled with the decision for a while – did I want quantity or quality?
Making the Purchase
In the end, I decided to go for quality. I figured if I was going to get these statues, I might as well get the ones I really wanted, even if they were a bit more expensive.I found this awesome Scorpion statue, in his classic pose, with incredible detail. And a Sub-Zero to match! I pulled the trigger and ordered them both.
The Waiting Game
Now comes the hardest part – waiting for them to arrive! The website said it would take a couple of weeks for shipping, so I’ve been trying to distract myself in the meantime. I’ve been re-watching some old Mortal Kombat gameplay, just to get myself even more hyped.
They’re Here!
Finally get the mail! I ripped open the boxes like a kid on Christmas morning. And wow, they were even better in person than they looked online! The detail is incredible, and they have a really nice weight to them. I spent the next hour just admiring them, trying to decide where to put them. I cleared off a shelf in my gaming room, and that’s where they now sit, looking glorious.
All in all, I’m super happy with my purchase. It was a bit of a process, finding the right ones, but it was definitely worth it. These Mortal Kombat statues are the perfect addition to my collection!
