Mortal Kombat's Goro, actual size

Of course, we knew the stop-motion model for the character wouldn't be fully human-sized, because that would be a ridiculous expense and effort for absolutely no payoff. But we're still delighted to see the actual sculpture used in the game, in all its diminutive glory. We also like how "homemade" the studio looks -- actual Mortal Kombat images were lit by a desk lamp taped to a cookie tin taped to some other stuff.

DAMN. . . Where has GORO Been?????? Hopefully we can see him pounding Sub Zeros in the head in the next installment

What do you mean where has he been? He was in Mortal Kombat Armageddon. Mind you, a badly gimped version of him, but him nonetheless.

Aww....don't remind me. That was the worst part.

$500 sunglasses? I don't think so.

Definitely need more Goro and maybe some Motaro if i may be so bold?
Storm Eagle @ Jun 22nd 2009 9:44AM

It's amazing to see that a million dollar series came from such humble beginnings. Just goes to show, that all you really need is one great idea and the dedication to see it through to make it in this world.

...yeah, back in the 90s, maybe.

It's still true today. You just have to try a hell of a lot harder and have a hell of a lot more dedication these days.
