Action Figure Hot Toys - VGM17 - Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Raiden

[CollectorGuy]

It looks rubber now, not for the months we've seen far shots that don't clearly illustrate that fact...

What are u talking about?

What are u talking about?

There hasn't been a really clear shot of the elbows until now, which is why there has been confusion on if it's rubber or not.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

It seems the joint in the arm is indeed rubber like the new Thors arms are

I thought they were plastic jointed too but there's clearly no joint in the arm

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Looks like moulded plastic to me

 

[Snake Plissken]

Such a stupid decision. Another overly expensive ****ing statue from HT.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

If it were molded plastic you would see the ball joint and it's pivot like you do on the bare bodies.

Which is why I think it's rubber, even though if prefer plastic

 

[franpincho]

He looks great.

But i guess posing him like a ninja (what he clearly is) will be impossible. Hell, posing him AT ALL looks impossible based on every single picture taken of this guy so far, except of course the proto ones.

My only concern seems to remain.The sword and seath looks too small and thin

The sword definitely is thin.

 

[ZombieRepublican]

The sword still looks an inch too short. That's my only problem with the figure.
This must be the same figure they display everywhere. Is there still a chance that changes will be made ya'll think?

That, the non-existent articulation and the hair were enough resons to cancel my po

I might po again if this turns out the be nicer... if someone ever dares to pose this damn thing for the pictures. For now I'll hold on to my PAK and Revoltech Raidens

 

[Chrono]

I ain't gonna cancel anything until I see the thing in hand. People bash way too much way too early. If I get the figure as it should in the protos, I'm fine. Incredible sculpt and armor details.

Maybe if we complain loud enough it'll work?

I actually prefer the Gecco statue to this, I think I might be skipping this sadly.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I don't know why the articulation is really being spoke about like there isn't going to be any. I know there hasn't been any posed photos but it is a HT, after all.

HT makes articulated figures, there is no way this is going to not be articulated.. that's a certification. Whether it's got the articulation to do extreme ninja poses has yet to be seen but it's most unlikely.

It'll have the range of normal joints and not the double jointed bodies so the Gecco pose will be easily managed, that being said i do prefer the hair on the Gecco.

 

[Jameson Rook]

If it's any consolation, he'll look really nice next to a repainted Medicom Raiden.

I doubt changes will happen, HT doesn't care about the VGM line for complaints to be heard.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

My gripe with this figure is the sword/sheath are too small not sure how they messed up the most staple part of the figure. Id have skipped out on the rifle and the ex muramasa to get that accuracy issue resolved.

The Gecco statue also has the light up feature, and different displays, that's why I kind of prefer it to this.

I know I'm going to be picking this up as well, but definitely not for retail.

Yup the Gecco version is vastly superior, I just love his hair
