A break down of Boot 6:



Something interesting is the leg section. When I was looking at the image, the leg kinda blends with the background some-what. It kinda looks like the background, but a little blurry and weird. Almost like what ever character it is, is invisible.

I'm calling it right now, this character is actually going to be Reptile, Chameleon or a new Reptile-ish character. It isn't just the fact that the leg looks kinda invisible, but it's also because of how Blade and Boot Armor looks. It doesn't look like something Shinnok or Hotaru would have. Their staffs would look fancy and stuff. The Blade and Boot Armor looks like it's made out of some sort of bone... Acording to someone who aparently leaked stuff from NetherRealm games in the past, they saw NetherRealm working on a character that looked like it was either Reptile or Chameleon, but they weren't sure which one. In the newest chapter of the MKX comic, there was a white ninja standing behind Kotal Kahn. The writer of the comic confirmed the ninja to be either Reptile or Chameleon (he didn't say which, though). Who ever it is, they went through a HUGE visual change. If they are in the game, and was being worked on, this would explain why the leaker didn't know who it was.

So yeah... I think Boot 6 belongs to Reptile or Chameleon (maybe a new character, but I'm not sure). Which ever character it is though, I think they will look totally different in this game compared to past ones (they may not have the same costume they had in the comics, though). Reptile HAS been mentioned by Ed Boon a ton of times on Twitter, so I wouldn't be surprised if he made it in the game. On top of all that, he made his first appearance in MK1 (and a lot of MK1 characters seem to be coming back: Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Kano, Raiden. Rumors of Liu Kang in the game. Theories that Johnny Cage and Sonya in the game. Plus, Goro is DLC...). That's my guess anyway!

Here's and edited version of the Boot 6 picture (I made it brighter, bigger, and removed the black bars around it).
