[krec9]

Hope I can find her around $150ish shipped. Same price I got Big Boss for.

Great deal there anymore left?

My bad, I just double checked how much I paid and it was $173 shipped. It was from gohastings when they had that 25% off promo going on not too long ago.

Does Sideshow have a date on this yet? I got it PO'd through BBTS and they usually get it a few weeks after.

Shipping 2/8! Should have her next tuesday or thereabouts

 

[Biojex]

Got my Boss today...just need to get a chance to open her up.

 

[Biojex]

HT....why didn't you give Boss the new female arms that can bend past 90 degrees?....sigh...

 

[J3D1_KN1GHT]

Yup! God knows how they managed to bend the arm to get the CQB pics.
Still waiting on Hot Toys to get back to me over replacing the suit.

Guys be carefull when posing the legs at the hip, the quads (thank you Shaun T) can cause the rubber fixed to the suit to rip.

Aye that, I had no idea it changed on MGS3 ha!
Learn something new every da............I forgot.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Yeah I seen you type that before thought it was a typo the first time this time I saw it again so I decided to correct you no offense. To be honest I've never seen it as CQB

It was never referred to as CQB. MGS3 started that element and it's still ongoing.

How did mgs3 start CQC what about breaking necks in mgs1 and the small amount of combat there

Yes but it was never named. At that point in time the whole CQC concept wasn't thought of. It was just unarmed stealth kills.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Okay I'll go with that sounds legit

I googled it to check and stumbled on this phrase:

"CQB is the one used in MGS1 and 2, and CQC is the one used in MGS3 and 4."

3 was released before 4 so meant it in a release date reference more than a timeline.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Thanks for the reference we stand corrected does CQB stand for close quarters battle

Yup. It always puzzled me what that actually stood for. I knew CQC but MGS threw me with CQB. Now my head hurts. From CQB, ABC, you and me 'n all that.
