Tips & Warnings
New collectible Mortal Kombat action figures are released periodically. When buying for a collector, be sure to note such details as when the toy was released.
When buying a rare toy, be sure that you are buying the real thing. With the introduction of high tech equipment, it is easy for unscrupulous dealers to sell less valuable toys in boxes that look genuine.
Consider the message behind the Mortal Kombat action figures before buying them for youngsters. According to the storyline, the aim of the characters is to eliminate the enemy. This could be disturbing to young children so you may want to limit gift recipients to adults and older children.
