PCS is back on the Mortal Kombat train. Previously, the maker of high-end collectibles gave us a sexy classic Jade and a venomous Reptile. Now, we’re getting two for the price of one with a combination Noob Saibot and Smoke statue!
Noob Saibot and his cyborg buddy Smoke are ready to … enchant you with friendship. Yeah, that’s it. There’s no violence here. These good boys will spill not one ounce of blood. They’re just here to make balloon animals, sing songs, and maybe remove your spinal column. I mean, give you a soothing back massage.
Nah, this $850, 22″ tall and 15″ wide collectible features the duo as they’re about to f’up an opponent. This is one of those statues you put on a shelf with custom LED lighting. I typically don’t buy MK merchandise, but this one may get my money. It can be pre-ordered through Sideshow, but don’t expect these two to arrive until sometime between May and July 2023.
The fully sculpted Noob Saibot statue measures 22” high and 15” wide as this armored wraith harnesses the powers of darkness against his enemies. Kneeling on the scorched ground, Noob Saibot is framed by the tortured, transient cyborg known as Smoke. Together these two Mortal Kombat antagonists form a deadly scythe, shuriken, and smoke-wielding assassin team.
The history of Noob Saibot is fascinating, if not a bit messy, as with most parts of the Mortal Kombat lore these days. He was the original Sub-Zero (Bi-Han) and was first playable as a hidden character in 1993’s MKII. His first incarnation was an all-blacked-out version of Scorpion. Smoke was much of the same, even though he was a robot. The exception is that his character model was a black/gray palette swap of Scorpion with smoke effects coming off his body. Both characters changed and evolved over the various sequels and the eventual reboot.
Check out the video below for the first incarnations of the two:
