I dunno if it's controversial or not, but I LOVE the concept of human reptile! I really like that a creature can pass as a human and it makes his true form appearing all the more shocking each time! But if they want to show Reptile not being able to keep his human form, I'd made it so that you can his disguise crumbling the more he takes damage, his full-health model being him with his reptile eyes and some scales showing on his arms, until he fully looks like a Lizard in human clothes. You could even have the tails move with it exponentially growing it as he takes damage! Like him having more "assassins" and "surprise attacks" move as a human which evolve into more barbaric and brutal stuff as his disguise crumbles.
This is a really cool idea! Always loved Human form Reptile and having some lore as to why/how he is either form like this and having it tied to gameplay would be really neat. 👍
I love his MKX designs, because it combines both human, and reptilian aspects about him. Perfect combination, but I must say that his MK9 rendition (Human Reptile) is really cool too, and ofc you can't beat the original design. Edit: That ending XD. *I'm gonna vore you!* I'm literally dying lmao 🤣
I'm not big on the tail; you get used to it, but I thought this was a cool take on the character. I think he should appear in MK12 with BOTH human and reptile forms.
Despite kinda being just a minion for the bad guys, reptile is my favorite character. He’s a lizard man ninja, how cool is that, and the fact that he’s been a minion for so long and avoided death in both timelines is interesting. My favorite reptile design is probably his shaolin monks design. The bandages around his face with a more detailed classic look and his snake medallion on his belt is pretty cool. The classic human with the lizard head underneath is a close second though, you can’t go wrong with that
Reptile is an amazing character, but ice noticed that despite all his abilities he is consistently getting the short end of the stick. I just wish he would actually contribute more, or qt least have more meaningful interactions
To MK4s credit it was the first time Reptile wasn’t just a palette swap of the other ninjas. Moving forward his designs had shown more aspects of him being a lizard and less of him being a ninja.
"But how did everyone know he was a furry? He'd kept it a secret all these years... and now they all knew." - Narrator, {YTP} ~ Postman Tap Delivers Fake Letters
Reptile in MK4 seems like a special costume he must wear in Quan Chi's Deep Dark Dungeon to fulfill his Deep Dark Fantasy. And I always wanted to get punished by Khameleon.
While I understand why you don’t like Reptile’s face in Deadly Alliance, I personally didn’t mind it all that much. The black suit was a great touch, and the gold medal kinda brought it together for me.
I also actually really like it. It's not THAT great when you keep analyzing it, but after MK4 at least it showed re-newed interest in the character. He's been poorly handled after MKDA though in terms of writing ✍ 😕
He’s the best character to play in the game and a fun one to watch I think this video kinda motivated me to write a novel about Reptile’s life before Shao Kahn My favourite is MKX, Scorpion’s Revenge, MK9 and MK 2021 movie because he looks cool
Reptile has always been one of my favorites and I always played him. I will agree that some of his designs are very questionable, but i do like how unique each of his designs are. Also, I was not expecting that ending when you took off the mask. I lost my shit. XD keep up the good work sonic :)
So I would be interested in seeing other mortal Kombat youtubers doing something similar. Just picking one character they like, and ranking the different designs they have had over the years.
Reptile should have an arc in the new era where he and the rest of his people join Kotal's people and there's an actually good Outworld Civil War Also, you sound like Reptile trying to sound human in that cosplay, good job
Also, I totally agree, the Mortal Kombat (1995) has a such a good looking mask. It’s really unique, because it’s not even the oni-inspired masks that scorpion had now. It’s something entirely different, more Aztec or South American in design.
i can't believe i just watch altmost half an hour video about some scaly guy simping for the mk lizard man.... and i actually love it, what is my life become... (great video as always)
I always loved MK4 Reptile. Especially the alternate costume where he’s basically wearing Scorpions MK4 ninja costume but green and missing the loincloth.
I feel like Reptile should get a transformation ability. Kinda like how Frieza turns into his different forms. It could go from his human form to his monster lizard form and he gets a 10x boost of power for each form but at the cost of his sanity (he becomes more agressive everytime he transforms). But that's my opinion.
There's a theory that more evolved/powerful members of Reptile's race could possibly shapeshift like Shang Tsung instead of having just 1 human form, and could use any enemy 'ninja' techniques (like Chameleon/Khameleon and MK1 Reptile)
The original movie design is easily one of the best - that mask it awesome. But I think one of the more underappreciated things I like about the MK movie ninja is that they wear sleeves. MKX alt costume could be my fave from the games if they tweeked a couple things: Give him a shirt or something to go under the armour harness, but more importantly, change the hood/head design. I wish his head was more like a hornless argonian from Skyrim (keep the small horns on the jaw, but not on top of the head). The argonian scale pattern on the arms/torso is also very cool.
I’m a big human Reptile fan, but his more lizard, open mask form from MK4 onwards, was designed so the animators wouldn’t have to animate the tricky mask removal.
Reptile, Stryker and Smoke desperately need redemption arcs. They have been so under-utilized. Baraka would have made it here too, but I think MK11 did him justice a bit. But now that the timeline has been reset again, who knows what a new MK game could mean for the stories of these characters. Sub Zero and Smoke inviting Reptile to join the Lin Kuei? Scorpion and Baraka romance? Gasp
It’s okay to be attracted to a fictional character who/that would probably kill you. I have a confession to make: I like Lickers (Resident Evil). Also, my favorite Reptile design is his default MKX design.
Human or Reptilian,it doesn't truly matter as long as he looks like a Ninja and mask with his must iconic abilities,in all honesty all of the Male,Female,and Cyber Ninjas are hands down the best part of the MK franchise and all of them deserves to be in every game,also good ranking video SonicHaXD and I do want to see Reptile return in the future like one of my high demands,the female Zatteran/Saurian Khameleon.
Totally agree on the contrast thing. MK characters have flashy outfits, so it's best to make their colors "pop". They need to either give Reptile a deep green skin with a dyed green or lime green outfit or give him like a pale coloration skin with hunter green outfit. It's not pretty when the character looks like a blob lol
Deadly alliance Reptile is the best skin in the entire franchise imo Also i think that red Reptile skin might be a reference to the red dragon experiments from Armageddon
21:35 the 1995 reptile is wearing the same costume as scorpion and sub zero from annihilation with the 1995 movie mask it looks great I would put it on a or s tier.
The video that sonic most enjoyed researching for Btw your costume looks genuinely good on you Btw 2 I agree that a good reptile design needs balance between lizard moster and muscular kung fu guy, if you just go for one side it just feels kinda off for the character
I gotta say. MK Shaolin Monks has the best Reptile design. The perfect mix of ninja and reptile. He looked like an undead assassin with the bandages around his head
You missed something the movie skin is has a different mask and it actually has sleeves which technically means it's not the MK1 design at all because it also has a hood that actually fits around his head instead of a loose-fitting hood
SonicHaXD cosplaying Reptile with sunglasses is just the BEST!!!
I thought was Jonny Cage and Reptiles love child
@@IsaiahAmos017 Don't give the internet ideas
Watch 25:15 😂
Reptile should get a redemption arc like Baraka gotten in MK11.
I think that if they make mkx reptile ending canon in the next timeline it can be a good redemption arc
If so then race of reptile female when 😳
How do they breed 😳
What does their penis look like😳
@@Honestlynothingelse I'm pretty sure they have sex like humans do since they are a humanoid species of reptilian.
i kinda agree... even tho baraka mk11 still a somewhat jobber, but at least he have character arc
@@rejectyourselfbadass8337 Then what's the vag acid
Reptile is one of the coolest characters in the franchise for me, I wish he had more attention in the games
And films...
The way NR treat with him, it's best for him to have less attention xd
@@DENOhritko sadly!
Like c'mon,he is one of the 3 original ninjas,he deserved better
@@DENOhritko specially if were talking about the poor mk9 reptile,he became a mute punching bag on that game
Red is a generic Saurian, but his moves all come from Reptile, so it counts.
That one of the reason why I made you're character a saurain called snake
I better not see any "REPTILE SIMP" down in the comments XD
ok

Would links to certain images on certain sites be okay?
@@vadandrumist1670 no
don’t worry my guy we will demolish them to whoever says that to you.
Came for the ranking of scaly boys, stayed for the crash course on chromatics 😂😂
I'm very strict with my Greenphobia XD
@@SonicHaXD "phobia" is fear. "Philia" is love. Judging by the video topic and your very open love for Reptile, I'm pretty sure you meant "philia"
Chameleon and Khameleon need to be involve in Reptile story
Perhaps the red version could be used or a blueish version to differentiate Reptile and Chameleon a bit.
I mean, Reptile and Khameleon were lovers until Reptile turned against Khameleon.
@@stoopid_idiot1 Kind of. Khameleon has a thing for Reptile, but he doesn't reciprocate it
@@Nick-up5wv I stand corrected.
I think the two Sauraians should unite against Reptile and than have baby reptiles to increase their dwindling ranks

Imagine if his skin changed to green in some of his attacks, like his skin transition from human to green while he spits acid and then back to human
@@realfromtherealreality4148 "way worse in essay" typos or being a dumbass? XD

At least he is inside him and not the other way around.
Who doesn’t want to be inside Reptile? 😏😏

I feel like MKX Reptile is unbeatable, the design, the gameplay, he's the perfect Reptile.
@@duckbacon3117 Agreed
I am in awe at how not-horny this was. But honestly I agree with all of these, especially the Klassic Skins, those are always fuckin' sick
Hell yeah the 95 movie version is up there! He even had a banging soundtrack just for him. 🤘
I favor Deadly Alliance Reptile myself. Since he's a lizard might as well go all-out.
Thats fine but dont make him look like a kiddy adaptation. Its Reptile, not Reptar..

Having a rank of Reptile forms/costumes was surprisingly beautiful.
To MK4s credit it was the first time Reptile wasn’t just a palette swap of the other ninjas. Moving forward his designs had shown more aspects of him being a lizard and less of him being a ninja.
Further more, my theory about sonic being a furry grows
Now you see why he would go so far just to make a tier list for Reptile ONLY 😈
"But how did everyone know he was a furry? He'd kept it a secret all these years... and now they all knew."
- Narrator, {YTP} ~ Postman Tap Delivers Fake Letters
He literally has a video called "creating my fursona"
Reptile in MK4 seems like a special costume he must wear in Quan Chi's Deep Dark Dungeon to fulfill his Deep Dark Fantasy.
And I always wanted to get punished by Khameleon.
What...
Like punished~~~
Or Punished.
I think he meant sex
@@Honestlynothingelse I don't wanna think about that...
The mkx tournament skin. That's all I have to say.
While I understand why you don’t like Reptile’s face in Deadly Alliance, I personally didn’t mind it all that much. The black suit was a great touch, and the gold medal kinda brought it together for me.
I also actually really like it. It's not THAT great when you keep analyzing it, but after MK4 at least it showed re-newed interest in the character. He's been poorly handled after MKDA though in terms of writing ✍ 😕
Finally the tier list we needed
"...pants are a no-no..."
"...doesn't show enough skin..."
When your favorite mk character only gets 5 minutes of screen time only to die: 😔
I always thought Deadly Alliance Reptile was overhated. Now I know it's overhated.
He’s the best character to play in the game and a fun one to watch
I think this video kinda motivated me to write a novel about Reptile’s life before Shao Kahn
My favourite is MKX, Scorpion’s Revenge, MK9 and MK 2021 movie because he looks cool
Link it when ur done. I wanna see it
Me too
Reptile has always been one of my favorites and I always played him. I will agree that some of his designs are very questionable, but i do like how unique each of his designs are.
Also, I was not expecting that ending when you took off the mask. I lost my shit. XD keep up the good work sonic :)
0:00 0:15 actual footage of reptile at its peak ngl.
OMG sonic is making a tier list on my favorite husbando!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Both Baraka and Reptile deserve better.
You've heard of KK in a wheelchair. Well, coming soon to Mortal Kombat 12:
*REPTILE IN A WHEELCHAIR*
sonic proves his scalie addiction for 26 minutes (please ignore the human reptiles at s tier)
I never knew i needed a reptile design tier list but i did lol🦎
Hmmm interesting that Legosi is in the Scaly Collection , ya smart 7u7)
So I would be interested in seeing other mortal Kombat youtubers doing something similar. Just picking one character they like, and ranking the different designs they have had over the years.
Reptile should have an arc in the new era where he and the rest of his people join Kotal's people and there's an actually good Outworld Civil War
Also, you sound like Reptile trying to sound human in that cosplay, good job
Another reason why MK2 Reptile's design works with the square patterns since it almost looks like scales.
That intro is the best thing i think I’ve ever seen
i love Tv series Reptile where he had his own story and his own reptilians behind him
Also, I totally agree, the Mortal Kombat (1995) has a such a good looking mask. It’s really unique, because it’s not even the oni-inspired masks that scorpion had now. It’s something entirely different, more Aztec or South American in design.
Scaly hot reptile creature ranking...... What an idea..
I was hype when I saw this thumbnail and the video was great my man! I would love to see you do this again with more mk characters
MK II Reptile was my favorite character when I was a kid.
i can't believe i just watch altmost half an hour video about some scaly guy simping for the mk lizard man.... and i actually love it, what is my life become... (great video as always)
I feel like I’ve just watched 25 minutes worth of scaley indoctrination and I’m not sure how I feel about it
I deadass have the Deadly Alliance skin in S Tier. I think it’s badass
Reptile was by far the coolest ninja in mortal kombat I hope you do more tier lists with the other mk ninjas
Cyrax > Ermac > Noob Saibot > Sub-Zero > Sektor > Scorpion > Smoke > Rain > Reptile > Reptile > Tremor > Chameleon
The best reptile skin is the Shaolin monks / Armageddon costume
That costume is awesome. It gives reptile a really unkept mystic look and makes it look like he really is from another world. At least for me
I believe the MK9 Ultimate Reptile skin was going for a more primal or traditional look. Notice the belt and chest features have snake designs in them
Reptile is one of the hottest characters in mk for me :)
Reptile 95 has a pretty generic look and a cool mask, but that music makes him amazing.
I always loved MK4 Reptile. Especially the alternate costume where he’s basically wearing Scorpions MK4 ninja costume but green and missing the loincloth.
I feel like Reptile should get a transformation ability. Kinda like how Frieza turns into his different forms.

just here to tell you how right you were after seeing MK 1 reptile return
I just wanna see you do a tier list of your anthro crushes at this point.
The original movie design is easily one of the best - that mask it awesome. But I think one of the more underappreciated things I like about the MK movie ninja is that they wear sleeves.

The cgi reptile looks like the hydra from the Disney Hercules movie
Why was you throwing that acid ball like adorable though 🤣🤣
I commissioned that fanart at 10:55 lmao

12:39 I hate how shaolin monks reptile looks like a muppet around the mouth... its just so weirdly shaped.
Oh man I was honestly expecting this to be a power/character tier list but yeah still love the video.

P.S your Reptile cosplay is pretty good
I also like how he is probably the most consistently continuent character, and that his mental state affects his appearance
Personally I think Deadly Alliance and Shaolin Monks are my favorites I prefer when he’s more lizard.
I actually like a concept you brought up, an idea of reptile starting human and turning more reptilian as the story goes on.
That's actually how he was in the old timeline XD
@@SonicHaXD bruh thats badass
I don't know WHY they don't continue that. Also his ending in MK9 could've been one in MK11 if Kronika had succeeded.

I wanna wait till the full game to be out to decide. But currently it's either S or A XD
@@SonicHaXDWill you count both forms or Reptile as a whole

As a Reptile main who is an MK4 fan, I agree about that design.

You should do a video of ranking random scalie characters you like
The video that sonic most enjoyed researching for
Btw your costume looks genuinely good on you
Btw 2 I agree that a good reptile design needs balance between lizard moster and muscular kung fu guy, if you just go for one side it just feels kinda off for the character
Is it me or Reptile from MK movie the one with coleslaw looked like the recent Godzilla movie.
A like, for your reptile costume alone.
Good work.
I gotta say. MK Shaolin Monks has the best Reptile design. The perfect mix of ninja and reptile. He looked like an undead assassin with the bandages around his head
You missed something the movie skin is has a different mask and it actually has sleeves which technically means it's not the MK1 design at all because it also has a hood that actually fits around his head instead of a loose-fitting hood
This late night upload ? Perfect before go to sleep
You forgot a key thing about the Monks / Armageddon Reptile: with those insane muscles we could get bara reptile
Don't forget his dummy thicc booty. ;)
I been asking for this in a very long time to the MK creators ,someone finally picked up 🤩🤩
Hybrid best character i still use em whenever my friends get me on the game 💗
This is a great video idea you should do more costume tier list for different characters
