Mortal Kombat 11 Spawn Figure Gets Running Change With New Weapon

For those who missed out on getting their hands on the McFarlane Toys 7" Mortal Kombat 11 figure the first time, you are going to get another chance at it. However there is going to be one minor change made to the figure with the second run. The original batch of figures released featured the character with a sword, and the new figures will feature a mace. Images of the new weapons have yet to be released, but if it is accurate then it likely will be the war club you see him use in the game. You can pre-order the Spawn figure from our sponsor BigBadToyStore.com now, though right now they are still listing the sword coming with the figure, expect that to change soon.

. . . Honestly, I would really prefer that awesome axe he had in Soul Calibur.

I was going to mention something like this. It wouldve been more apt if he wouldve got his axe which is also in MK11, The mace is cool tho and dont mind either honestly.

The original listing of the figure there had sold out there pretty quickly, so it will be interesting to see which version shows up on my doorstep this weekend. By the way, the figure is once again sold out on Amazon.I am also kinda torn on which version I actually want. I like the sword, but the mace looks pretty cool to me as well.

I ordered a MK11 Spawn figure off Amazon for retail a week ago as well, I received mine a couple of days ago and got the sword version. Having seen what the mace looks like, I'm happy to get the sword instead.

I was tempted on this figure, but went for the classic remaster from the kickstarter. I like the Red on the suit in the og design. Was tempted to get the modern version too, but don't think I need two Spawns on my shelf and at that price tag no less.

We told you last month how McFarlane Toys was making a change in weapons with their Mortal Kombat 11 Spawn figure. The initial release of the figure featured a sword, and now there will be a running change/variant of the figure released, which will feature a war club. The war club is a weapon, like the sword that is featured in the game. Up until now we had not seen any actual images for the new weapon. Below you will see new images of the figure featuring the mace like weapon. Thanks to Bryant on the heads up about the new images.It's not entirely clear if the version featuring the sword will completely go away, or how many figures with the sword are still floating around in the retail pipe-line. We are definitely still hearing reports of folks finding the Spawn figure with the sword at retail, but those may just be older stock that stores have yet to clear out.Our understanding has been, as stores re-order new stock of the Spawn figure, that new stock would feature the Mace as opposed to the sword.I was able to snag a Spawn figure off Amazon earlier this week. The original listing of the figure there had sold out there pretty quickly, so it will be interesting to see which version shows up on my doorstep this weekend. By the way, the figure is once again sold out on Amazon.I am also kinda torn on which version I actually want. I like the sword, but the mace looks pretty cool to me as well.If you want to be 100% sure of getting the Mace version, you can specifically pre-order that one from our sponsor BigBadToyStore. They no longer have the sword version available, as they to sold out of that one.

Tord McFozlove clearly still loves confounding collectors with running changes.

Yes I think you're right

Oh, I'm sure it was his idea, but I was about after doing that kind of thing for so long, if it's something he actively thinks about or if he just did it out of habit.

I'd say it's a habit of his.

My guess is that that was his idea, kinda making the first run of that Spawn unique for collectors, but IMO, the sword looks cooler.

Not sure if Todd has that on his mind now, or if it's just ingrained at this point.

Why was the running change made to begin with? Did they think fans would buy again another Spawn figure for the newaccessory?

Back in the golden age of Spawn figures, chase figures were pretty sought after and there were collectors who would try to get both (or sometimes more than that) variants. Not sure if Todd has that on his mind now, or if it's just ingrained at this point.
