Guess whose alternate we've probably been seeing?

I've hidden it in a spoiler in case you don't want to know, but the discussion below might not be hidden in spoilers.

Now look at Reptile. What do you think?

Can you post a link? Those Spoiler things don't open for me.
 
Thank you! I think you're right that he doesn't have a mask. Looks like he still has some kind of skin tight hood on. Not sure but either way, I'm just glad he looks way more vicious than in mk9.
 
Omg this makes me so happy. I actually really like the look of that, despite hating reptilian Reptile. They should have just gone with that look for the trailer. *shrug* Oh well.

And no wonder they kept tweaking out every time the spacey guy hovered over Reptile.

I think he does have a mask though, hood without mask would look dumb. Both or none is how it should be, yet I still prefer masked and hooded Reptile, always reptilian Reptile, I don't see the point of a human one.
 
I think Ermac used his alternate costume. I think the masked version always will be his main.
Kung Lao used his alt as well - 2 costumes: younger, older Lao
 
Still sticking to my theory that the Kitana costume we have been seeing is the alternate. Default costume will be the stripper outfit we all know and love

I knew you were being sarcastic with the joke but you know what? I like the "stripper" outfits. I mean, hell, Mileena is one of my top favorites for crying out loud! In terms of Kitana, though, her MK:2011 and Deadly Alliance outfits tie for me. That being said, I think it is good to do half and half. Some chicks (like the classic MK ladies) should remain dressed in skimpy outfits but the newer chicks should look different. I think that is a good way for all of us to get what we like.
 
Guys, i dont think thats his mouth.

It LOOKS like his mouth, but thats probably due to blur from the low resolution of the image.

If you compare the basic shape of the mask, and certain key points such as the pointed ridges coming from the jawline, its his design seen in the comic.

Damnit. There goes my hope for a more humanoid (ie fleshtone scales, or anything more pre-deevolution, not necessarily completely human) Reptile
 
Yeah it's too blurry to truly tell. I actually don't mind the one they showed though. I fine with him looking like a humanoid Reptile, as long as he's actually intimidating looking. This Reptile actually looks like he'll tear your face off where the mk9 model looked like a pet I would keep at home.
 
These designs are from the krypt. The third is MK9's reptile costume, the fourth is his MK9 alt, the second is plain awful but the first one is a quite good human reptile.
