Mortal Kombat 11 came out a little while ago, but we've still yet to see McFarlane's line of figures for the game take off. I'm a bit worried about the longevity of the line giving that it is starting so late after the game came out, but I'm still hoping for them to cover several of the characters from the game and really flesh out the cast further then Sub Zero and Scorpion. Because I'm not sure if McFarlane will continue through with the line, I'll open this list up to any toy company that produces MK11 figures in any way, be it the higher ends collectibles market or McFarlane themselves. So here are the top 5 Mortal Kombat 11 fighters I want as action figures!

5. Kollector
This guy was one of the new additions to the roster and while he didn't end up adding much to the story, in my opinion he was a very cool fighter with a very wicked design. I love the fact that he has six arms which would translate very well into a figure, and his very creature/alien-esque design could help him fit into other displays as well.

4. Raiden
The game seemed to drop the evil Raiden storyline as soon as it started, but the character of Raiden was still present throughout the entire game and his relationship with his pupils, especially Liu Kang, was well flesh out and interesting to see. Getting a figure of the thunder god is a must.

3. Lui Kang
Speaking of Liu Kang, he ended up being the overall hero of the game in the end. He was a cool fighter of course, but his storyline was one that I didn't see coming and his relationships with Raiden and Kitana were really cool to see. For such a major character in the game, he deserves to get a figure.

2. D'Vorah
A character that was introduced in the 10th game who made it into this one, D'Vorah was a bug woman who as a design and as a play style was very cool to utilize. I love her extra appendages, her yellow, disgusting plating, and the ragged robes that she wears in this game. She looks like a monster crossed with an insect and I think that came out with a pretty cool fighter.

1. Johnny Cage
I never really cared for Johnny Cage before but this game seemed to do something different with him that he just caught my eye a lot more. His jokes about the movie industry, and moveset and fatalities that directly called back to his roles as an actor, and especially his interactions with his younger self were all a delight to watch. Johnny Cage quickly has become one of my favorite Mortal Kombat characters thanks to this game, and I hope he finds a spot as a figure one day.
