If you collect
Mortal Kombat action figures like I do, then you were probably a little upset when
Jazwares Inc. released their
Noob figure this year with a grey costume. However, this past summer, they announced they were planning on releasing another wave of figures, including
Kintaro, another version of
Goro, and a black costumed version of
Noob.
Well, as many of you may already know from past news updates here at
FDMK, the
Kintaro figure has been put on hold, indefinitely. However, the all black
Noob variant has managed to quietly start appearing at toy stores, just in time for the holidays. A local
KB Toys in my area had many of this new variant in stock for only $5.99.
The image below shows the difference between the original grey figure(left), and the new black variant. This new version is now much more accurate to his
Mortal Kombat: Deception appearance.
