Another item added to the first post - The 'Time Warrior' of the MK Universe

Hehe, that's pretty damn cool man - I imagine it'd be lightning accurate nowadays.

I saw this:



recently at Mandarake Shinsaibashi for about 2500Y and thought of this thread...anyone know how rare is it?

[5FDP]

Not particularly rare. The PS1 version of MKII is rarer and a good copy can fetch anywhere from $100 AUS upwards.

I bought the local release of MKII on the 32X and traded it back to the store within a week. It is basically the same as the Mega Drive / Genesis version but with bigger sprites and music closer to the arcade version but still not as good as the SNES game IMO.

According to wiki that only came out in Japan eh?
It seems easy/cheap enough to get in Japan, ie on Amazon.
There's also a couple of stores around town with PS1 games still for very cheap, i'll check em out tmr!

Edit: hopped on my bike and checked out 2 stores - no dice 3 stores remain tmr. Any other rare PS1 JP releases i should keep an eye out for?

Edit 2: bah, unfortunately none of the stores around here have it

Edit 3: even THIS store didn't have it! damn it!

One of my MK Grails has been secured and I should be receiving it within a couple of weeks if everything goes according to plan. Put simply, it's one of the rarest items in the history of MK. Stay tuned for the reveal

Dude, if you managed to get a hold of an original MK Arcade Cabinet & it works? - I think I'll faint for you!

LOL... not quite. It is directly related to the MK1 arcade cabinet though

One of my Mortal Kombat Grails has arrived! To promote MK when it hit the arcades in 1992, Midway produced a mail-order comic that was advertised during the 'attract' screen when the game was idle (see below). It was later released in comic shops in limited quantity, but it was almost impossible to get a copy outside of the US. I present to you...

So cool... even that screen gives me goosebumps (not that i ever saw the actual writing on the screen, I just remember stepping up to the plate). I need
to play that now!.. I remember as a kid I had a photo, that i took of Goro, (The shot from the ending credits) that i used to carry around in my wallet. ....
Keep up the collecting of MK. you've got some great stuff!
