Love Storm but lately theyve been excluding ankle swivel and it kills a lot of poseability. I snapped the peg on King expecting it to be there

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Most of their figures don't have that joint though

[@ghulamshaikh1124]

It's a cool release, though personally I think it could have really benefited from cloth goods for the top. I know that's not everyone's cup of tea, but I think the range and overall look while posing would be significantly improved. Their recent Baki figure uses cloth goods for his shorts and I think they work quite well so it'd be cool to see Storm incorporate them a little more.

[@253emiliano]

Fun Fact: The Head Sculpt is based on the actor Rich Divizio who portrayed Kano, Baraka, Shang Tsung, Kabal, Noob Saibot and Quan Chi in the early MK games.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Yep. It's fairly accurate too

[@betabloxx]

Really appreciate this! For Mortal Kombat Fans, this is awesome! Sadly this figure has no visible Neck. Uncle Fester-Kano

[@kingdomcomesuperman3669]

My favourite design for Kano is MK3 but personality wise between the films and MK11. Still awaiting for mine to come but considering how good it looks can't wait.

[@kyleholder3785]

yep, you gotta make the movie head for this now that you mentioned it. btw, have you done any custom stuff since that last round of spawn axes? i typically get everything you make.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

I only did one round of spawn axes. If that's what you're talking about, then yes. If you're talking about a recent batch, then no because that one hasn't happened yet

[@ethantheartistandgamer1513]

To me, i think they should make a cyber sub-zero

[@jorgerincon6874]

Hey Anthony are you going to review the Baki figures from Storm, mine is in the mail and from pictures they seem pretty good, specially the Yujiro one

[@kiralord8588]

Yujiro looks fantastic, one of their best figure to come.

[@IceDragonKustoms]

Shirt should have been sculpted as the torso part like raiden or kung lao. I'll grab one later this year when sheeva and nightwolf are out to save on shipping.

[@Helioskrill]

Any plans to review the Storm Baki line? I’d love to hear your input as they come out

[@zannusx]

Which live action movie are you refering to? If its the more recent one, that dude nailed it.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

The original one

[@alexrmz86]

Imma pass on him for now. If later on he goes on sale I might pickup

[@asgads]

I just bought the DK Mcfarlane batman. Loos supercool, but I was wondering about the many holes at the joints that get exposed. interesting that this seems to be the case with beefy guys like Kano here

[@jorjyogurt8474]

The overlay kinda eats his neck a bit too much, he looks really goofy to me, but not that big a fan of the MK3 Kano design in general, here's hoping they'll eventually make more figures for later games, Kano looks really cool in Deadly Alliance and 2011

[@alienbob7025]

He's kind of too chungus for my taste. I wonder if he'll be like Raiden and the recent Sub-Zeros and be hard to get at retail or if Kano will go the Reptile and Kung Lao route and be cheaper later. Decisions, decisions

[@happyabbyarts]

"Would you settle for me sausage?"

[@Sp1der-Fan]

dammit I was going to comment that lol

[@FREKKI]

The daggers and their effect counterparts look awesome.

[@mattb7727]

I like Storm but for me they have too many licences. King of Fighters, Street Fighters, Mortal Kombat, Darkstalkers, Samurai Shodown, Soul Calibur, etc. It's cool but that also means not many figures for each licence. Ok maybe in ten years we will have a reasonnable choice of characters for each fighting game licence, but the old figures will be impossible to find. So we have to buy them all now and hope that they will make more. Maybe it's a clever business move but their figures are also really expensive. It's not Marvel Legends. And someone like me just can't afford to buy them all. So it's frustrating. I chose to buy only King of fighters figures because I already had mini statues of some characters that happen to be in scale with Storm scale (which is not 1/12 but more like 1/9) I will see in the future if they release action figure versions of the statues I have.

[@mbm8404]

The head will be perfect for a McFarlane Space Marine!

[@tylerhendersonjr6587]

My Favorite Kano Design Is Mortal Kombat 11

[@bee-beargaming]

I love this version the best as a casual mortal kambat fan

[@asgads]

looks okay, would like the fading hair, bearded Kano

[@moondark1031]

Storm scale is all over the place. Can you show the MK figures with other versions of Storm MK figures please? And when you review other Storm figures please try to compare them with other storm figures from that property and maybe other company versions of the same property? Keep up the most honest reviews anywhere!

[@mkl4466]

From some angles the head looks like Mark Strong.

[@kalorathekau]

Not sure if youve mentioned this elsewhere, but is there a particular Mortal Kombat character that Storm hasn’t made a figure for yet, that you’d like?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Quan chi might be cool

[@FinalConsensus]

Live action MK1 is my fav too

[@abareamphibia6812]

MK3 Kano is my favorite kano

[@Alex-fx5es]

MK1 Kano is the best

[@T.Maximus]

They did kano justice.

[@badmoonknight5009]

That looks like a McFarlane with that chunkiness.

[@andrewpetersen5249]

“Lucky for me you can hardly notice it!”

[@thenotoriousunc]

I like storm collectibles but this is not something I need .

[@wsugj]

Yeah, I agree. He is too chunky. He doesn't look like that in the pics I saw. This is my favorite look for Kano, but slimmer.

[@whozyourdaddy]

I like him, but I don't love him. I think Storm needs to find a different solution for the clothing on the upper body. It has that traffic cone thing going on where the clothing just doesn't look natural unless the figures in a fairly neutral stance. That said, I have this guy sitting in my pile of loot with Shao Khan still on preorder. Unless Jada Toys gets in the MK game the way they got into the Street Fighter game, these Storm figures are likely going to be the best MK figures we'll ever get.

[@sik7476]

Im assuming that you meant the Kano from the original live action movie, correct? I can't remember exactly how Kano looked in the new version. But, I really liked the original movie Kano, as well. I thought dude killed it. But, I also liked the Kano from the new movie... he was, imo, the best character and had the best lines. Sik

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Yeah. The og movie. Can't beat it.

[@user-lp9ub6dw5t]

Is storm more 7 inch scale?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

sorta... theyre kinda their own thing at this point

[@Marcelo.reviews]

Kano ❤

[@jestaalchaosborne]

Mkx Kano is my favorite look my far

[@hellriderindustries3083]

Kano from Mk9 or 10

[@mikek3377]

he looks like vin diesel with no neck

[@JasonVoorheesUnstoppable]

This is a KaNO for me

[@eminye1]

Whatcha doing with that Vin Diesel toy?

[@DanB.0]

Batman looks so sad about being the one testing the accessories :p

[@AlphaProto]

That figure looks really frumpy.

[@JamezuHeroLD]

I prefer this Kano. I never liked the movie version because while most people think he's Australian, the actor is actually doing a terrible English Cockney accent and it makes me cringe and laugh every time I hear it. He did look good though.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

The actor is Australian isn't he?

[@JamezuHeroLD]

@@AnthonysCustoms No he's English, that is if we're both talking about the original from the 90's. I think the actor that plays him in the more recent movie is Australian.

[@dtejada1988]

😎👍🏼

[@muisverriet]

Never liked this Kano design. Liked the MK11 design the best.

[@warpfrenzy]

I really can’t get past the rubber chest on these guys. I understand why they do it but I don’t like it. Too bad since they do have some good lines.

[@OneWingedDemonSlayer]

Never been a fan, he looks too villain of the week compared to others
