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

[Cap'n Cook]

Looks great.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Hope this releases soon. Can't wait to see the production figure

 

[Chrono]

It's slated for December right? I kinda wish HT would put out more of those Upcoming Releases teaser. I love those. Kinda rekindles the hope that you have for them to be released on schedule. Or at least you know it'll be released in the near future.

 

[Kiva]

December? More like April isnt it?

 

[Chrono]

December? More like April isnt it?

Oh? Sideshow's date? Last I remember was December. Guess I was wrong.

 

[Biojex]

no Yeah…this thing isn't due out until next year…also expect delays…….

 

[Chrono]

Ah crap. Well, it's still a long ways off I guess. It's cool. Gives me some room to breathe with all the POs I currently have. It's a little irritating that he's almost at all the comic cons or whatever, and still no decent poses.

 

[RIDDICK]

Wish I never POd this...

 

[Solidus]

Oh well... I can do without more payments in the mean time .

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

I always had the impression it was march not sure how people got the idea of december. I knew from the get it was then.
Im only paying payments on ray, my raiden ones dont start til december 25th.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I'd be looking forward to this more if his damn elbows weren't rubber...

 

[Chrono]

I would love it either way. But damn, I really hope HT checks out these threads and all that pertains to their figures. I'm fine with rubber and ratchet like TDW Thor. But I'd prefer visible joints. His design makes it so easy to be incorporated.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

It is a head scratcher for sure that they went the rubber arm route for this figure

In a perfect world you'd want double jointed elbows, joints being easily hidden due to the complexity of the design so no problem there

But no..... rubber arms and pictures of it how it would come straight out the box, for the 3rd show in a row

 

[franpincho]

I wonder if they are just hiding the articulation because Kojima wants them to. In sure that ****er even has a say as to how they display these MGS related things.

I hope this turns out to be a pleasant surprise on that regard.

 

[Chrono]

I am so gonna rage if I can't bring his arms together and the ground punch pose. I'm fine with the elbows, but please oh God make this ninja be able to make uber deep stances.

 

[ShaneX]

Why do people think the arms are rubber? How can you tell from the pictures? Or am I just completely missing something

 

[Snake Plissken]

If it wasn't rubber, the inner elbow would have a visible pivot joint... unless HT has come up with some ingenious way of hiding that now... it's rubber.

 

[dominishin]

Hope the shoulder area is more flush like the proto.

 

[Snake Plissken]

What do you mean? Completely sealed from the arm to the body? From that photo, it's a completely separate piece from the rest of it.

 

[ZombieRepublican]

I think he means the shoulder joint not being so open. It should be able to slip into the shoulder
