If you move the body and then twist the suit back you can move his arms better

Uhh, nice looking forward to posing him later. Just happy that the customs doesn't seem to have damaged anything (except the box, of course :/)..

Edit: So just to clarify, you can just achieve that kind of a pose https://imageshack.us/a/img593/5184/snake3.png or can you actually bring the knife and pistol together infront of him?

The only thing you can really do with him is give him a CQC ready pose, aside from that it's a statue. Real shame, although if they do a BDU version it will probably have 80% more articulation.

That's not true I posed him tighter than that many times.

I'm too afraid of tearing seams even attempting it. The Boss feels way too fragile to try anything at all.

You can just about get it tight enough on Snake, the suit if alot more durable than expected. No chance on The Boss though her suit is far too tight, to create the CQC look tightly anyway

The Boss is such a let down

I finished replaying MGS3 this bank holiday weekend & was just looking over to my display at The Boss and it's made it so much worse

Couldn't have said it better. They really missed it with both figures but more so Boss.

Was she really that much shorter than Naked Snake in the game? She's a midget of a figure.

No hardly that much to be honest. I don't know if theres ever a time they are stood side by side to 100% know but when they are talking in the flower field at the end there isn't that much in it to be honest

I just don't know how they got her so wrong, everything about her seems off, doesn't capture the feeling she gives off in the game at all. There shouldn't have been any problem really because the render used of The Boss isn't that much different to her actual look, unlike the render used for Snake

The HT figure reminds me of an old *** crackhead from eastern europe, also with the limited movement of the figure anyways they would have been better just doing the chest as a whole piece without the joint, the scar is only of the only things done well haha

Her face is better in person, but still looks like a transgendered version of the Boss

She almost looked like the same height as Ocelot and Ocelot was just as tall I think as Naked Snake. She looks a full inch shorter than Naked Snake in Hot Toys form

Hopefully they redeem themselves in future releases...

If we get future releases who knows with hot toys anymore.

I still think a BDU version is still plausible.

If nothing else they had the perfect chance to put out a patchless BB sculpt with a true type release like they did with the Gambit head.

Well I still think they may have another Naked Snake brewing since they titled this release Sneaking Suit Version which leads me to believe we have a Jungle Fatigues Version coming.

 

[Jack D]

Man I hope so. HT actually released a really nice Tiger Stripe pattern with their Noland figure, and honestly the more I look at the HT Snake sculpt the more I like it, just need a patch less one.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I'd really dig a BDU version of the Boss from the Virtuous Mission.

That would be awesome only thing is it would be on that same tiny body and the clothing would be sized to that. I love my Boss figure but the body needs to be switched ASAP. Doesn't have that imposing look she had in game and artwork.

 

[rainax]

Just got this guy last week, and greatly satisfied with him. The only nitpick I could say is the tight suit kinda restrict the upper articulation. It can do some good ready-for-battle poses but I'm afraid to leave the pose for display as I may tear the suit or leave unwanted creases.

Now I want Old Snake, Naked Snake BDU version with eyepatch-less headsculpt, and Solid Snake from MGS 1 or 2. I just hope HT won't drop this line after the seemingly failure of the Boss. The only thing I want from that fig is the Patriot

 

[Dark_Spidey]

My dream figure from MGS3

 

[bangkok_wolf]

My dream figure from MGS3

Mine as well. The possibly way is for HT to make him as a DX...

 

[Solidus]

My dream figure from MGS3

That would make one incredible figure.

 

[krec9]

As great as that figure will look hot toys isn't concerned with mgs it's a shame so much potential.
