Storm Collectibles RAIDEN Mortal Kombat Action Figure Review

Mortal Kombat might not have the most creative characters in the world but they are some of gaming's most iconic none the less. With this release we finally get a figure of the guy who wouldn't be intimidating at all if he didn't have super powers. Will Storm be able to make a figure of his relatively simple character design be appealing enough to spend big money on?

I love Raiden's design in MK11, the "past" version with the blue trench coat

[@marijunealejo1780]

The belt on my Raiden broke off too. I replaced it with a black garter I bought from a sewing shop. Tied it on his waist like a real belt. It suits him very well and it looks natural.

[@ks_carri3d571]

Mortal Kombat dark Raiden from deception one of the best outfits ever

[@TetsuoSlade]

“Mortal Kombat may not have the most creative characters in the world” - Series with a centaur with a tail that shoots lasers

[@Marconius17]

There’s plenty of unique designs. Don’t be silly

[@TetsuoSlade]

@@theramblinmahoney2316 That was moreso because of memory constraints. They eventually had unique designs. A sorcerer ninja with a million souls in him is still pretty unique

[@kingmeruem8821]

@@theramblinmahoney2316 the ninjas have become unique in recent times.

[@KoalaFied-ie8rn]

@@theramblinmahoney2316 LOL so true 😂😂😂😂

[@gemininosaga]

The hat doesn’t look intertwined. It looks waffled.

[@justinmiller9865]

My favorite Raiden look is his Deadly Alliance costume.

[@RockerMicke1]

He has a cape and capes are awesome

[@bluevegito-6979]

I like dark raiden armegedon or when ever he first appeared,but deadly alliance raiden is dope too

[@topsuperdave64]

Same, Deadly alliance is my favorite raiden design

[@jjjbj5965]

I like mk vs DC Raiden. He's basically just mk9 Raiden (my second favorite) but with a cape which just makes it cooler.

[@gunsharck]

@@RockerMicke1 You clearly haven’t seen the incredible eh? NO CAPES

[@wrench246]

My favorite Raiden design is the MK1 all white pajamas

[@ethanevans2689]

MK1 Rayden and MK deadly alliance raiden are my favorites 👌

[@BrazilBoi55]

Kinda wish he came with his bo staff as an accessory

[@youngduffy5016]

For me it’s Raidens alternate costume in deadly alliance and Armageddon where he doesn’t wear the hat.

[@tgonzalez1983]

Good review bro. You should include more pictures of the source material that the figures are based off of in future vids. It’s nice to see a comparison between the two. Colors, scale, materials, etc. I love the cyborg ninjas in this line. Can’t wait to see Kitana & Mileena

[@DarthMacchio]

I love Future Raiden from MKXL

[@perceivedvelocity9914]

Yup, a little peanut head. That just about sums up my feelings. I really liked this look for Raiden when I was a kid. The apron really didn't age well IMO.

[@diegoborges3716]

My favorite Raiden look is the movie version. Ok, I know....but I actually like that movie.

[@raidenkeify]

It actually is a good look and i love that later games from midway showed his white hair

[@niccage6375]

My favorite raiden is the Christopher Lambert raiden from the first movie

[@RockerMicke1]

I’d would choose either deadly alliance or MK2011 of raiden

[@WatcherMovie008]

*Inserts Raiden gibberish quote from MKI, II, and III*

[@7OnAtuesday]

Mk9 Raiden definitely my favorite

[@gmoney1664]

Always like the videos, I don't collect Storm or Mortal Kombat, but I'll still watch the reviews as you explain so much and so well. Preferred look, MKII though to your point, the original game sprite

[@mahirduneja8280]

I love raidens trench coat in mk11 in the past

[@kingjohncustoms]

my favorite Raiden design would be MK Vs. DC minus the cape. He just looked so clean in that game

[@frikitiki5403]

A bit biased, but as a kid my first fatality i ever performed by accident was with mk2 raiden.

[@andrekalil68]

As soon as I got the fig I removed the blue robe.. pretty easy, remove head and arms.. looks way better without it in the classic white

[@qemuel]

Tough call. I dig the MKX outfit, but I also really like both the MK Deadly Alliance and MK11 "past" looks as well. Great review as always, thanks!

[@Red_1911]

I really like emo Raiden from mk11. For level 10 in respecting the Elder Gods and Women Raiden, I like the MK Deadly Alliance

[@Mmagnus7]

Emo raiden😂😂😂

[@danielbenjaminmesser6234]

Please keep bringing Super Shredder out LOL I love it!.... I agree Super Shredder is one of the best photogenic figures of all time!.... I can’t stop looking at mine and when I think I got him put up.... I get him back out again lol.... oh well he is staying out.... “THEN SO BE IT!!!!”

[@emphorepolpatinedasenate]

I cant decide if my favorite is mk9 or mk deception evil raiden but its 1 of those.

[@Masterplayer1500]

I actually really love the mk11 design. Not dark Raiden with the gold armor but when his past self comes back. That design is so good. I want a figure of that but I have the storm one too and love it.

[@DarthMacchio]

Glad you mentioned the shoulder thing. It was something that bummed me out about their cyborg figures, because the Cyber Lin Kuei was not built like Vin Diesel. They were lanky and it made them stand out. For as much as Storm charges they need to quit cheapening out and reusing the same body sculpt for every figure.

[@bashcrash9148]

The blue really pops on this figure.

[@DeathMetalHead69]

As a man named raiden i kinda need this

[@pigdude6323]

You know what I’d love to see? Storm take on TF2 figures.

[@aaronclark9324]

Thanks for doing this one, I was hoping to use this more of a rice hat warrior than the actual character, this will do nicely

[@T.Maximus]

Got the red version.. this is my favorite version of Raiden

[@t0ky030]

anthony the legend

[@saberultra9336]

His "hat" has the same color as an ice cream cone lol

[@brenoslhq]

Great Review! My favorite Raiden designs are MK deadly alliance and deception Raiden

[@DJKrossphireDaChoppahKid]

Personally I don't think its the shoulders themselves, its where they're placed that's throwing the look off. They are sitting a bit too high so now he has this, lets say "Shelf shoulder" appearance to him. If his shoulders looked more relaxed, I think he would look a lot better imo. Also they need to re-sculpt his biceps so he can have more clearance to rotate them

[@worldwarrior1022]

Maybe Storm Collectibles should try make 1/18 scale figures, maybe they will get the right size for 1/12 scales this time.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Lol. It's not that bad

[@IOsTower]

This is the review I’ve been for waiting my fav mk character right here, And Mortal Kombat Deception is my fav look for Raiden

[@heyguys_rhett]

Maybe its because i loove armageddon i have a lot of memories with it but i like that version of raiden

[@JacM78]

Klassic Raiden is best Raiden. Also I don't like how short he is.

[@juliocabral6949]

The belt again? Every reviewer got the same issue. The best Raiden look is from Deadly Alliance.

[@NakedHillbilly]

i love dark raiden and the story of him and i wish he got more time in MK11

[@gunsharck]

More time in 11? Mate you are so dense light bends around you, the whole story is about him!! He’s in 90% of it

[@santiagoliang]

One of the best for storm collectibles

[@brooksysdead]

Every single costume design from mk2 was far superior to every other game. I'm biased though because mk2 was my favorite and the one i spent the most total time with in the arcade vs the others. Id go into an arcade and theyd have 1 , 2 and 3 lined up next to eachother and id go to 2 every time

[@Mmagnus7]

Evil raiden from 11 is the coolest

[@brixzusjaeger3385]

Overall I like it. I think I’ll buy it. So altogether. Who’s figures do you prefer Street Fighter or MK? I like SF more because of the diverse character designs.

[@post-humanemotion]

kid thunder is my favourite raider

[@mickholohan4266]

Alas the belt is a common issue. Lots broke theirs

[@ratmachine87]

I've been waiting for you to review on this figure. Lol

[@joshbohrer613]

Mcfarlane's MK11 Raiden is 🔥🔥

[@AnthonysCustoms]

yes

[@nickbelz5886]

Where do you get all your figures

[@laumpolumpio]

MK10 Radien is your favorite?? how old are you?? 80% of the all time MK fanbase hate these new games, everyone knows that the old 2D were the best featuring the best versions of the original characters.

[@Cmorbley-_-gaming]

I want all the classic ninja scorpion sub zero smoke noob rain reptile and ermac

[@Viret73]

Mk9 raiden is my favorite

[@limbofightingsurvivorl.f.s37]

snowman lol thanks for the review :)

[@jasonppatchen2246]

That look is from way back from mk2 lol

[@punkedout62]

Mk2 was my favorite Raiden. Do you have a recommendation on separating the lightning fingers? One hand came almost clumped on mine.

[@mikeslife6902]

I like his mkx dark look best

[@Kevin-bh2mw]

Any chance you’ll be reviewing the new Marvel Legends Movie Venom? Or the new Carnage from the same wave?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Yes

[@JayOo_ski]

You can just take the blue of and it will be mk 1 raiden

[@slimsuits3231]

It just looks like a figure that I'd hate to pay over 20 dollars to obtain. For the price he goes for you think there would be far more detail and accuracy with the body and wardrobe. Those shoulders...😑

[@haikkalarista]

ALIBABAE!!!!

[@almightycinder]

I think his hat is supposed to be wicker.

[@206dave]

He’s definitely not perfect but I like the figure, would have been cool if the blue vest was removeable but then it probably wouldn’t fit as good

[@Marconius17]

The vest is removable. I have mine displayed without it.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

it's not intended to be. that's what he meant. if you remove it, you'll have blue and black scuffs on the white and could easily damage the blue.

[@Marconius17]

Intended or not, it looks pretty good without it. Taking the arms and torso off and sliding it off is the path of least resistance. Mine didn’t scuff when I took it off and looks just fine.

[@206dave]

AnthonysCustoms yes that’s what I meant, as if it was a piece you could take off and put back on easily like akuma’s gi, but it’s still cool enough as it is

[@Marconius17]

206dave I got you man. I hadn’t gotten that from your initial comment. Regardless, if you ever wanna take it off without much friction, you can pop the arms off and then the upper torso and simply slide the piece off. Having it come off easier would have been way more ideal, but it’s still an option.

[@gamingwithluis5982]

Dope figure

[@jbsskid]

Mortal Kombat Armageddon dark Raiden

[@leehawknewmoon7722]

great video

[@gesie0504]

I would go to Mortal Kombat Annihilation Raiden. 😏
