Cool, I'm really digging the stages, they certainly have that KOF Atmosphere...nice to know you'll be re-joining the fight.

After so many years going by, I do not need adult Kyo wearing a school uniform. It would be creepy.

I hear you...but he still looks like a kid...at least give us back the 99 jacket, that new jacket looks very generic. Iori's classic outfit kick the shit out of everything they have designed for him...at least we know we'll get them as alternate costumes...hopefully.

I have to agree with EG here. These characters are essentially ageless regardless of the passage of time.

If the storyline doesn't specifically say that time has passed, then age appropriate gear that communicates an aging process or a change in priorities is irrelevant.

But as said before, ppl arent going to be weirded out by a older guy wearing the uniform or a dude dressed like a fkn dinosaur

Pro wrestlers can dress however the fuck they want as long as they act in accordance with their gimmick.

Kane and Undertaker are two perfect examples of wrestlers the fans accepted at face value.

Plus...fighting game. All it needs to do is make sense relative to its own universe.

The people being 'weirded out' by pro wrestlers in dinosaur outfits in a video game need to take a deep breath and remember it's not real and that in these highly stylized fictional worlds, the people that feel that way are the oddballs.

Not the dinosaur wrestlers.

I like it, always loved the animal like characters

Rock: Souledge/Blade Whether you prefer the Bear, the Rhino, or whatever they are all awesome!
Ocadan: Soulcaibur (3?or 4?) So awesome!
King: Tekken...oh the god damn man!
Who am I forgetting?...

Tizoc/Griffon Mask is such an awesome concept. I was working on a wrestling comic book...just a personal project with my GF a fellow artist, in it I have made quite a few characters but among them Condor, the greatest wrestler of all time, think of Atlantis and Dragon put together, the celebration of Dragon and the prowess of Atlantis, the outfits I made for the entrance were bordering on the extravagant...one of these days I'll post some pics...No beak mask, just a straight up mask but he wears a helm with a beak during his entrance...

The reason I chose a Condor wasn't originality, the character has been played out before in wrestling but it was never implemented well, I know what how pro-wrestling works, very familiar with costumes and what have you so my design reflected that, I was going for a new style, I wanted my drawings to contain more realism and thus I concentrated a lot on Fabrics and how clothes work with the human body...painted on spandex can get a bit tedious...I followed Cassidy I this his work on Astonishing X-Men was superb, his attention to fabrics was excellent, specially on Wolverine.

Edit: In case you don't know, The Condor is the national emblem of Colombia, I can only pay tribute the right way!

Personally I prefer Tizoc over King of the Dinosaurs. The Tail Flip thing seemed silly for a Pro Wrestler. Almost Kaijuesque. I'm sure I'll get over it though.

Sure thing! I'll have to make a mental note not to bust it out unless the person I mention it to is a minimum of 30 years old.

Old Weirdo Team?

Kinda bummed Tung doesn't have his wizard quality beard, otherwise I'm glad to see him. Choi and Chin have always been meh for me since the first KOF, but it makes sense to include them.
