Jax's arms

[Aldo Moreno]

Here are some better views of Jax's arms.

Jax's arms in these pictures look like straight up implants instead of covering his arms only. It also looks like his sockets are full of cables between his arms and shoulders! Look at the skin in where the metal starts. The metal is so even with his muscles from his chest and along with his skin too. They are so even. Just by looking at his shoulders too, he kan rotate his arms(like a hypnotize thingy) without moving his whole shoulder because you kan see the little gears thingys on his arms. Plus, cords are connected to his neck and if you look closely, it is inside of his veins. I hope you guys know what I mean because I am trying my hardest to explain it because I really don't know the human body well.


EDIT: Also, if you look REAL closley in the black parts in his arms, they are full of cables.

Yea man I agree. Jax pretty much had his human arms removed, and these metal arms grafted to his body. I hope he was asleep during surgery cuz man that looks painful o_0!!!

At least someone agrees with me!

But he still has bones inside, I guess they are surgically emplanted exoskeletons, like cyber-arms connected with the body.

Thats a good possibility too. Still looks painful though lol.

IMO this is one of the best looking models for Jax. Looks sweet!

I agree with you too Aldo, but I just don't understand why Jax would have bones in his bionic implants.


Did his arm muscles / skin get damaged to the point that he could no longer function with them?

Did he get into a more gruesome battle with the Black Dragon, in search of Kano?



I'm hoping that these questions will be answered soon enough, in "Story Mode."

Yea he does look sweet and his arms, look more detailed than ever. You can even see the "Made in China" logo on them. His haircut is also very detailed as well.

Thanks for the + Rep, who ever it was :-D

I think something fight of happened to his skin and muscles in his arms from him to get those arms that way.
What if his metal arms replaced his skin and muscles and kept his bones so it kan function better?
And something must of happened around his shoulders too since they are metal.
And yes I hope so too as well.

I like this look a lot better!

Guys, stay on topic.

Agreed. I think they took many layers of tissue off of them and replaced it with whatever the hell those arms are comprised of. Think Grey Fox in MGS, except only the arms.

I've always agreed with the mentality that the cybernetic arms have actually replaced his flesh and blood arms this time. I feel there are two ways we can look at this.

1. Jax's arms are completely replaced and the bones we're seeing during X-Rays are temporary and will be substituted by cybernetic tendons and metal skeletal structure in the final game.

or

2. NetherRealm is just keeping things easier on themselves and just using the standard human male skeleton for Jax and to explain why you see bones they could argue that everything but his bones were replaced and that would explain both why you see the tendons and skin replaced but the bones are not.

Meh, i don't really think so. It seems a bit much to take off ALL of his arms to replace it with Metal plates and such. And if they HAD done that, don't you think it'd look a tad less human (different fingers? etc.)? It's just an exoskeleton over the arms. Or at least that's what makes the most sense to me.

This may sound dumb but, what is a exoskelton?

Who is Grey Fox?

I SUPER agree with you on the 1st one. Like one Sektors, when one X-ray was complety different from another one. And the 2nd one, I agree with as well. I think all of his muscles and skin were replaced.

Who is Grey Fox?

A hard outer structure, such as the shell of an insect or crustacean, that provides protection or support for an organism. And Grey Fox is the ninja from Metal Gear (http://www.supercheats.com/guides/files/guid/super-smash-bros-brawl/greyfox.jpg) . Imo he'd be a better inclusion to Mk than Kratos. That's just my opinion though.

Thanks for the exaplation.
lets get back on topic now.

And about your other post, it still think he has his bones as well. And but I think his arms got replaced. It looks like they kan make the metal any shape they want because the arms look like a human shape.

Im guessing its to keep the x-rays lookin painful

Or that isn't the final version of his body. That is what I think.
