So I just got back from upgrading my Standard Edition to the Gamestop Limited Edition when I found myself thinking about the CWS Skin, what would it look like? What would the background of the costume be?


So I really hope NRS doesn't pass up on this awesome chance to deviate from the norm.

Instead of Scorpions typical ninja mask why not give him a Cold War era Gasmask (Please don't make it look like Kabal's respirator).

I can already see a backround story like Scorpion was a Soviet super solider test gone wrong or a WMD that was never ment to be unleashed.

Or something along the lines of all the souls of the lost Russian soliders were combined together to create The Soviet Spectre!


What does CWS look like in your minds? Has anyone else upgraded from the Standard edition? These questions require answers!

Im pumped for these Themed Skins. They sound fun and add some diversity. I know, I know, most people here would rather have canon skins, but some non-canon fun can be had too. Id totally play as a Shang based on the movie, or imagine a skin pack were several characters get superhero redesigns. A Raiden superhero skin. Hell yeah!

I get a "Red Son" vibe from this Cold War skin.

Excited to see it, and it seems silly for them to announce and use it as an incentive without even showing it.

Wacky outlandish non-canon themed skin packs honestly seemed to work well enough for Street Fighter IV.

I hated the redson costumes in Injustice but im still excited to see the Cold War Scorpion.

Am I the only one that thinks there will be a "Legacy" costume pack for some of the characters that have appeared in the legacy series?

I just hope Scorpion gets a costume where we can actually see his face. I do not mind the themed costumes even f they are out of place for the character. We have the main and alternates costumes for serious costumes.
"The Cold War" happens in MK, that's just what the call a war that happens...it's in the achievements. Not that I read them all but that one popped out to me. Wait..do people seriously think there was going to be a Cold War Scorpion skin based on US history? LOL Are you fucking kidding me? Jesus Christ, this is an all new low of dumb..i'll add it to the list.

Think it might be that parka from the comic he is wearing in the panel before Raiden's visions? If they show it now, then they would also have to reveal Takeda if he does get a DLC costume too.

Edit: I think the achievement list may have it wrong because it's listed as "Civil War"..either way it's a costume for something that happens in the MK universe and not out Cold War or Civil War.
Oh look he edited his stupidity.


You realize not everyone spoils the achievements for themselves right? So instead of shooting down others ideas instantly have an open mind you simpleton.


I guess not you miserable excuse for a human being, that's where being an inconsiderate fuck gets you ladies an gentlemen.

Nobody likes you when you're a condescending prick 24/7. Thanks for your "valuable input" though. I don't even know why i'm acknowledging you right now.

What if "cold war" means war years ago with Bi-Han (cold) and the Lin Kuei?

Some sites specify the design was done by a fan from the MK Kollective. Not sure if it was actually submitted there tho...What if it's something crazy non-canon like this:

That's the thing we have no idea what "Cold War" pertains too it could be based on the real world event or it could be something completely unrelated.


Literally endless possibilities i'm just tossing around general ideas and what to see what else people have in mind.

I believe this might be the Cold War Scorpion. Can't find anything else on there that would resemble "Cold War". The skull mask is similar to what they wear in COD Ghosts and Ghost Recon. Take this with a grain of salt, I'm not 100% certain that this is it, but most likely:

I edited it because the achievements might have gotten 'civil' and 'cold' mixed up. And like I said, I didn't read all of the achievements, literally the first one was "civil war blah blah", so yeahhhh...


I'm condescending because the stupidity from most of the users, you included, is mind boggling. Like to the point I can't believe what i'm reading, your thread definitely included. I read some of people's theories and I want to enroll them back in school. I'll kick rocks into your gapping vagina for sure, open up wide, there's some rocks cumming in baby. I'll wait until the game comes out, i'll remember this because i'm going to rub it in your stupid face when this "cold war" Scorpion isn't him with a fuckin gasmask lol you're welcome to do the same. If it really is some random use to put Scorpion in military gear then go ahead and rub it in my face.


Nobody is supposed to like me..i'm not here to make best friends with anyone. I've only been coming here for 10+ years for MK info and the occasional good topic. This isn't one of them, nor are the other shit ones that new users make.

Terrible assumptions, so bad i'm confused on if you think they're possibly true or just saying shit to say shit. Either way, pure assumptions that are wrong. Soo again..yeaaahhh...I don't know where you got the "internet tough guy" thing from my post. Say salty some more, it makes you really look like you belong and grew up on the internet. Man, everyone sounds exactly the same on here, using the same terminology as everyone else. Have some originality and personality. Bye, great thread you have going here. You did good, pig.
