| 1584 | Article | Vaporman87 | @NLogan: LOL! Yeah, that "Rayden" was actually much cooler than the Lambert Rayden. Awesome movie. | Dec 10, 2014 |  | |
| 1586 | Article | NLogan | Raiden (game spelling) and lightning from the three storms are way cooler than Rayden (movie and comic book spelling). Rai and den means thunder and lightning in Japanese, and is based off of Raijin the Shinto thunder and lightning god. He looks just like the Taoist god of thunder and has the Chinese character for thunder on his uniform. | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 10, 2014 | |
| 1609 | Article | vkimo | Haha I never new Mortal Kombat went Broadway. Sounds kool. I really don't rekall when the MK bomb dropped initially. I do remember begging my parents to take us to the movie. My mom was somewhat of a helikopter parent so I was amazed she konsented to this, klearly she didn't know a thing about it. I remember shortly into the movie we see Liu's brother get the beat down from Shang Tsung. The whole time I was watching the movie I was also watching my mom who seemed more distressed by the moment. The final straw was when one of the guards did a flying jump kick and Sub Zero froze him and we him break into pieces and his frozen head slides up. Needless to say we left mid movie. I didn't see the point now because we already saw the worst part. | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 11, 2014 | |
| 1636 | Article | MissM | I so remember the MK live tour. I never saw it but I had this Kollector's Edition magazine that featured images of the cast. It was so cool. This article was perfect at capturing that feel of the time. I remember so many debates in the cafeteria about the merits of Street Fighter 2 or Mortal Kombat. Very cool images and a great article. | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1651 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @MissM Thanks. Glad to know I'm not alone in remembering that this thing existed. Where did you get the magazine? Super Market? Toy Store? | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1655 | Article | MissM | @Hoju Koolander I got it at a Book Stop or Walden books. It was in the magazine section. I have it somewhere, I will look for it and take a picture. It came out around the time of the release of MK 3. It had a break down of the characters, the creation of the game, the phenomenon of the game also with some details about the live tour. I must have read it over and over. One of the funny things is that under each character profile, the characters answer questions like favorite food, favorite book, and one of them was like, who do you get mistaken for and Sonya Blade says She-Ra. I always loved that. Such a fun series. I just wish they'd make nice female figures to the games. | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 16, 2014 | |
| 1737 | Article | Moudy | One of the best games ever! | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 24, 2014 | |
| 1579 | Article | massreality | I loved that Medieval Spawn figure. Its one of those things on my must buy again list. It was just so cool. | Christmas of 1994 | Dec 10, 2014 | |

| 1585 | Article | Vaporman87 | By the mid-90's, KB Toys (KayBee Toys) had become a go-to place for toys that had been out of production for a couple years. And, by 1997 (when hype was building for the awful mess that was Godzilla '98), Trendmasters' Godzilla toy line had ceased production (as did Trendmasters altogether - they filed bankruptcy). The prices of those figures, especially the 12" line, had increased tremendously on the only existing online aftermarket of that time (Ebay). So, my mission was clear. I began mapping out EVERY mall with a KayBee Toys in it within a 100 mile radius. Every weekend (and sometimes weekdays) I would travel to another mall, check out the KayBee Toys for Trendmasters Godzilla figures, collect my treasures, and head home. I did that for probably a year. I sold most of what I had found, but also supplemented my own collection (which I still have today). Ahh, the days of bachelorhood when you could just leave on stupid trips like that for no good reason. Yeah, I don't miss those days. They all feel wasted now. | Christmas of 1994 | Dec 10, 2014 | |
