Did Ed Boon just post an image teasing Noob Saibot?

[REDRUM]

What does the "ThrowBack" mean then? You think it's a throwback to the names being splled backwards hence Noob Saibot?

really not sure yet...

NEW HINT ERMAC?????

Yea saw this just now...

So the new focus is to key in on the "Throwback" term. What is Boon rreferencing

Am I the only one who sees sunglasses instead of glowing eyes?
Now that I think about it, age lines would make sense on older papa cage...

in that case I'm guessing shadow = reference to shadow kick, and the green orb is a forceball.

You win the internet today. From all the guesses yours seem so elaborate and simple at the same time that has to be the right one. Congrats, lets see what happened on thursday!

We troll Khrome for talking about shoes, but this is just another day at the office around here.

Shouldn't u be interested in feet too, I mean u guys talk about "footsies" haha (which btw I have no idea what they are)

Confirmed Troll.

You're lucky we don't ban proxies.

Palm Tree = MKD

Maybe it's a hint of a MKD character.

Yeah, like Noob/Smoke?

 

[Swindle]

Palm Tree = Hollywood California.
The figure is in a pretty familiar pose...

…AND, with the newest stick figure/glowing green ball tweet, well

And that stick figure looks like he's doing a Flip-Kick motion to me

Shadows are dark.. Jax has dark skin OMG

 

[Justice]

From the pose I'd say Quan Chi. But that face makes me think of Reptile. I'm so confused...

If I remember correctly - wasn't Ermac located near a tree when he fought Kenshi and got ruined in Mortal Kombat Legacy ? That might be a throwback reference *shrug*

- skip to 6:30

1.) The face in the shadow could be close this dude, and
2.) Green Eramc ball + tree reference ( I am probably putting too much emphasis in the wrong things maybe ? )

ahhhh I <3 this episode....

I mean at this point I think we have to focus more solely on the clue THROWBACK (I think lol)....

 

[Vagrant]

Just dropping by to give Boon props.

Troll level: Off the charts.

 

[Sultani]

[Flagg]

I loved Noobs look in MK9

@STORMS

If this is front paged could you at least add the source of the photo to the OP?

http://milroypictures.com/Hitchcock.htm

That's where Ed got it from. He just pasted the face on it. The OP and title are so misleading right now to people entering the thread. That pic isn't an MK character, just the face is.

I think Ed got the photo from here
http://www.visualphotos.com/image/1x7779207/shadow_of_a_person_and_tree_on_grass

The Hitchcock movie just used it as well (also it is cropped on the Hitchcock page)

Edit: I didn't find this myself - saw it here

[REDRUM]

and my first thoughts on this pic was correct... I said Quan Chi... just wasnt sure and I over focused on the "shadows" ....
