That fix is pure genius!!! Made that figure look like a new one and that color on it looked amazing! Another great review!!! Thanks for the future tips on how to address those issues with my Hot Toys.
@@JustinsCollection I guess with the outfit slowly messing up you could say that the outfit Battle damage sub zero also if it start happening again since you fix it lol plus that change of the body look way better
I honestly think the repaint looks far better than the figure was starting out. Same with the body swap. With the mods the figure is a home run. Nicely done
Bi-Han/Original Sub-Zero had a different outfit in Mortal Kombat (2011). He had that ninja suit that was simpler than Kuai Liang's but sleeker and more streamlined. He also has a different face when you look closely.
That sticky residue on the older body, is due to plasticizer separation. Normally it happens with very very old plastic figures (certain types of plastics and pvc). But some modern figures use very cheap grade plastics and start to separate much faster. If this happens to an unpainted plastic surface, you can safely wipe off the sticky residue with 90% rubbing alcohol. But the sticky residue may re-emerge again a year later. Fantastic upgrade with the body and tunic paint job.
Looks great with the upgrade. Definitely a hard one to find (already looked) so will hope someone does a movie version. Mk9 design is pretty close to classic but my favourite is the MKX design which the movie heavily borrowed from.
Just to add, Bi Han's mask is not the right one, in MK9 you can see Sub Zero has a different mask when is Bi Han, and it changes when Kuai Liang takes the mantle.
Wow what an amazing restoration and body upgrade! You should open a sixth scale rehab clinic for older figures 😁 (reminds me of Toy Story 2 scene with Woody and the "restorer")
how would you compare worldbox to a phicen body's lifespan? Also what kind of material should you avoid when buying 1/6 figures, like with the plaid leather that requires maintenance, so basically a figure that's low maintenance and I can leave on the shelf for years?
I figured as much but thanks for the reply, on the other hand if I leave it in the box should I worry about it having a shelf life especially with some kind of sun exposure or preferable tempature?
Man, that body swap made a world of difference. It went from a figure that I felt “I dont need this” to “shit...I think I have to have this” hopefully, even though I personally felt the new movie...left a lot to be desired, let’s say, I’m interested to see if any third parties try to make figures from the movie. But I do prefer this costume to the movie one. Great review, as always.
Justin, you are getting really good on this mods/customization things! I remember when you made your own Batman drape cape. This repaint you did on sub-zero’s cloths was AWESOME. Even looking the little details, like the edges of the blue transition to the black were amazingly done. Congrats! 😃
You better do Scorpion. This Sub-Zero looks so damn good! I wish he came with more ice effects, and I definitely think the lack of a display base was a missed opportunity, for sure. Especially if they did something with Scorpion and Sub Zero together. But for what it is, the figure itself is really awesome looking. Shame about not getting the ice sword, and again it kind of boggles my mind why he didn't even come with any ice blasts. I suppose there are plenty of those type of effects out there, though, easy enough to make something work.
It´s good to see that you are going to start uploading mortal kombat figures. I hope you show Reptile, he is one of my favs!. Awesome figure and awesome video!.
So glad you told me about the Angelus Leather Paint. I have a Sideshow Collector Buffy the Vampire Slayer "Vampire" Spike and a Star Wars Episode 3 Anakin Skywalker who vest is having leather flaking issues. So now i can try to fix them.
I use to think they were little guys like 5’8 . One day I looked up subzero and scorpions height and weight and it said they’re like 6’3 220 pounds and then I’m like dam they some bigger boys Than I thought 🤓
I'd love to see the Kung Lao review as he's my favorite MK character and I've had my eye on him for a while but I don't want to waste the money if he isn't worth it
Upgrade I dont know. For longetivity and robust. Its using the plastic body. For realism. Its Phican. But most times Id rather use plastic body and still looks extremely good without worrying about rips and tears while changing position after years on the shelf. Many people sold out the Plastic body of Mike Tysons storm toys. I also always buy the plastic body of Bruce Lee 1/6 and also didnt like how the bodies didnt hold out on Hot toys Leonidas as well so I opted to get a different brand.
I'm pretty sure both head sculpts are the same Sub-Zero as he does get the scar in the game. Bi-han's costume in the game is actually different, this is the younger Sub's outfit
The head sculpt isn't Bi-Han. That's just Kuai Liang without the scar and white eyes. And it wouldn't make sense for it to be Bi-Han because he has a different costume and mask than Kuai Liang. Cool review though
I'm sorry as a Mortal Kombat nerd I just have to say, I just read the description and you said Bi-Han when he is actually Kuai Liang, just correcting it
I think Bi-Han is the one with the scar on his eye (because of Scorpion's chain spear) and the Quai Liang (excuse my spelling) is the one with normal eyes.
I have the kung lao 1/6 scale by world box and the scorpion pretty kool figures but now after watching this video I think I want to change the bodies as well
I'm a huge Mortal Kombat fan, so bring on all the characters! I want Kano, Liu Kang, Raiden, Johnny Cage, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Sonya. I want em all please
I just finished playing the game but you make a little mistake both head sculpts are kuai liang but the one with the scar is after he was saved from cyberization which that head sculpt is more worn
Excited to see more mortal kombat reviews! 5:13 Also thank you for pointing out who is who cus i was confusing who was the one with the scar on the eye :>
Body looks better on Scorpion. Really recommend airbrushing Subs paler and with some skin texture. He looks off being as warm blooded as scorpion's corporeal form.
Also awesome to know a used version of the figure would be the way to go anyway since additional work needs to be done. those are joints were hard to look at.
Awesome review Justin worldbox mortal kombat sub-zero looks beautiful I loved have to get one in my collection do you know where I can find one,my favorite sub-zero is kuai liang
That fix is pure genius!!! Made that figure look like a new one and that color on it looked amazing! Another great review!!! Thanks for the future tips on how to address those issues with my Hot Toys.
Thank you!
Subzero is really cool
It is!
I love your videos. I like every videos you did.
Thanks!
Isn’t his head too big?
Glad you asked. No.
Would you recommend to use the matt finish on pleather to prevent flaking from happening?
Maybe!
I hope they release the new movie figures.
Me too!
Where could a fella purchase one of these??
They’re sold out now
Hold up I need a 1/6 scale Revenant Liu kang from mk 11 not mk x
That would be cool
@@JustinsCollection I guess with the outfit slowly messing up you could say that the outfit Battle damage sub zero also if it start happening again since you fix it lol plus that change of the body look way better
Sub-Zero was my favorite MK character, who else? 🧊 🧊 🧊
That's awesome they include both brother sculpts!
MKII was my jam, it came out when I was in Junior High School. So hard to choose a favorite....Liu Kang, Sub-Zero, Kitana, Kung Lao...
Sub zero is badass! And the figure too!
I've been jamming MK since '96,,,Scorpion, Sub-Zero,Johnny Cage,Sonya Blade and Noob Saibot are ones of faves.
Sub-Zero is my favorite too but I'm better with Scorpion, on the OG machine.
They bring skins for characters from previous games but never brought this one. Smh
I honestly think the repaint looks far better than the figure was starting out. Same with the body swap. With the mods the figure is a home run. Nicely done
Thank you!
Absolutely dope figure! Although I wish the scar on the Kuai Liang headsculpt did not actually go across his eyeball.
Ya it is
i mean it is from the game 🤷♂️
Oh fair enough!
@@kazzzuya yeah the scar went over his eye but not on it

I love Mortal Kombat man. Please do more of Mortal Kombat figure unboxing especially Scorpion. Appreciate it man. Nice unboxing of Sub Zero man.
Soon!
Just to add, Bi Han's mask is not the right one, in MK9 you can see Sub Zero has a different mask when is Bi Han, and it changes when Kuai Liang takes the mantle.
Yes I've been told haha
@@JustinsCollection thanks for answering, really loved the two of your MK figure videos ❤️
Wow what an amazing restoration and body upgrade! You should open a sixth scale rehab clinic for older figures 😁 (reminds me of Toy Story 2 scene with Woody and the "restorer")
Thank you sir! Took me ages though!
it’s a great looking character! but the only downside is that he doesn’t come with any type of weapon
I wish it would of came with his ice sword
The last version did
Yeaaaaaaaaa sub-zero
Yes!
BRO MK IS MY FAV GAME WHA-
Nice!
fantastic figures
Thank you!
Oi
where did you buy this toy i search sub zero and i found nothing,
WHERE?
I mentioned in the video
how would you compare worldbox to a phicen body's lifespan?
Also what kind of material should you avoid when buying 1/6 figures, like with the plaid leather that requires maintenance, so basically a figure that's low maintenance and I can leave on the shelf for years?
Well their bodies are plastic, newer ones would last longer
I figured as much but thanks for the reply, on the other hand if I leave it in the box should I worry about it having a shelf life especially with some kind of sun exposure or preferable tempature?

I was waiting to see if you would do a mortal kombat figure. And it's sub zero even better😁
Yeah!
Oi

Indeed it is!
Fantastic restore on that suit, ill remember this video if I ever run into something like this!! I really hope someone releases some new MK figs!
Thank you!

Scorpions my favourite Mortal Kombat character
Mine too!
And I know who my favourite RUclips or‘s Justin’s Collection

Thank you!

You're pretty talking

It´s good to see that you are going to start uploading mortal kombat figures.
I hope you show Reptile, he is one of my favs!.
Awesome figure and awesome video!.
Nobody has made him unfortunately
I do not like scorpion I like sub zero
Ok!
ME TOO BRO
Biomuntant figures !
Ok!
next is mkll scorpian
*scorpion
So glad you told me about the Angelus Leather Paint. I have a Sideshow Collector Buffy the Vampire Slayer "Vampire" Spike and a Star Wars Episode 3 Anakin Skywalker who vest is having leather flaking issues. So now i can try to fix them.

Where can i buy this?
You cannot
I'd love to see the Kung Lao review as he's my favorite MK character and I've had my eye on him for a while but I don't want to waste the money if he isn't worth it
Oh maybe I’ll get him!
@@JustinsCollection hes a dime dozen on eBay and Aliexpress. I've got one myself, just waiting on my 1/6 goro statue to pit him up against it.
Damn i wasn’t expecting this, scorpion next?
Yep!

I'm pretty sure both head sculpts are the same Sub-Zero as he does get the scar in the game. Bi-han's costume in the game is actually different, this is the younger Sub's outfit
This is specifically called the ‘brother’ version, it even says it on the box 😅
The head sculpt isn't Bi-Han. That's just Kuai Liang without the scar and white eyes. And it wouldn't make sense for it to be Bi-Han because he has a different costume and mask than Kuai Liang. Cool review though
Maybe
Wow that's pretty cool 👍 great fix...now fix my Karl Urban dredd. Smiles
Nice!
its bi han not sub zero
... Bi Han is Sub Zero
Was soo satisfying when you swapped Sub Zeros body and did a new paint job. Looks alot better than the actual product bi-hand 😛
Haha yeah!
I'm sorry as a Mortal Kombat nerd I just have to say, I just read the description and you said Bi-Han when he is actually Kuai Liang, just correcting it
Ok
I think Bi-Han is the one with the scar on his eye (because of Scorpion's chain spear) and the Quai Liang (excuse my spelling) is the one with normal eyes.
Read the reply
Nice work. Would love to see Threezero take this line over.
That would be awesome!
Awesome review! Is it rude to ask when the next zd toys iron man figure is getting reviewed?
When it arrives of course!
Sub zero mantap
Nice!
Hi Justin, did you peel the whole thing off to paint it or got a replacement somewhere? Just got my Scorpion and same thing's happening. Disappointed!
I peeled it off yeah!
8:46 BRUUUHHH
Yeah!
I have the kung lao 1/6 scale by world box and the scorpion pretty kool figures but now after watching this video I think I want to change the bodies as well
Do it!
That is not the bi han head sculpt. Bi han had a completely different mask and facial structure. No hate, just throwing that out there
Okie dokie!
Actaully there both Kui Lang the reason why there is 2 is because Kui Lang didn’t have a scar in Mk9
Maybe
This is Kuai Liang, not Bi-han. The suit and the shoulder armor belong to Kuai Liang, check MK9!
I am well aware of MK9, this is meant to be both
Bi han
Yeah
I'm a huge Mortal Kombat fan, so bring on all the characters! I want Kano, Liu Kang, Raiden, Johnny Cage, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Sonya. I want em all please
Badass!
I just order kung lao, but i really need another mortal kombat figure. I just can't find them‼😐
Damn!
Poor Kung Lao. Scorpion kills him. Sub Zero kills him.😂Poor guy
Legit
That's The Younger Brother Of The Original Sub-Zero Bi-Han, Kuai Liang?
Nice
I just finished playing the game but you make a little mistake both head sculpts are kuai liang but the one with the scar is after he was saved from cyberization which that head sculpt is more worn
Ok
I hope i dont seem rude
Great review man! Will it also work on a Phicen m35? And did the clothing come of easy or?
I think that would be a bit too big for the pants, gauntlets and boots
I just really hope some day we have a good quality mk X sub zero figure
Me too!
That is so beautiful
It is!
Previously on kung Lao being tortured in every mortal kombat media
Legit
Not a huge fan of Mortal Kombat, but the figure looks awesome! Amazing paintwork on the hands and the accessories.
It’s badass!
That's dope
It is!
Can you tell us how did you removed the belt? Did you slide it off? I don't see any cut seams.
Yes I slid it off carefully
Wow, that figure looks sick. Nice vid
Thank you!
Not to brag, But I main Shao Kahn in all mk games and I will clap anybody
Lol ok
It was strangely satisfying seeing the restored version of this figure, you did a great job!
Haha nice!
13:03 Nice job with the repaint and choice of Phicen body. Looks like a brand new figure!
Thank you!
Toys not how they use to be I still have toys that still have the normal paint n look the same and there from 80s n 90s
Ok!
Please review the storm collectibles mortal kombat figures 🙌
Maybe!
Scorpion is best mk character scorpion is best strongest mk character
Nice!
Excited to see more mortal kombat reviews!
5:13 Also thank you for pointing out who is who cus i was confusing who was the one with the scar on the eye :>
Actually bi han has a different mask. Kuai Liang just sometimes has a scar and sometimes doesn't so it's a choice of which version you prefer
Haha nice!

Also awesome to know a used version of the figure would be the way to go anyway since additional work needs to be done. those are joints were hard to look at.

Awesome review Justin worldbox mortal kombat sub-zero looks beautiful I loved have to get one in my collection do you know where I can find one,my favorite sub-zero is kuai liang
No sorry!
@@JustinsCollection ok justin thanks
Yo is that Sub-Zero I don't like it I love scorpion I like
Ok!
Do you think M34 phicen body will also fit?
Too big
Great vid
Thanks!
It's about time hot toys started making figures from mortal kombat
Agreed
Beautiful figure ! but a bit off because not come with any weapon 😞
Fair enough
That figure looks nice
If they have noob saibot imma hop on it
That would be dope!
Yess!!! Would be amazing!!😄
this figure is so cool can you review kung lao action figure?
Maybe!
This is the BEST mk9 sub-zero figure.
Nice!
I love subzero subzero is one of my favorite from Mortal Kombat
Nice!
I own the original figure n is suffers from flaking and I’m looking for scorpion
Yeah it does
Please do the Mcfarlane Mortal Kombat toy collection!
Maybe!
