Metal Gear Solid Collectibles

Alright, I need a release date already! These figures are like a dream come true for me. Perfect size (my opinion), great sculpts, and decent price! Win, win, win! The waiting game just sucks.

Oh, by the way. I just want to point out that when Hot Toys actually decides to release their figures, I am pretty sure the first one will be of the sneaking suit version. Therefore they will use some kind of rubber that will be chalked full of problems (like usual) making it look awesome initially, but in all reality will only be enjoyed for about a year before you get scared and sell him off. Soooooo, I will make my point by saying that Play Arts has thought of a very clever way of hiding joints, therefore making it possibly for them to make their figures in full plastic, while still making them look awesome!
To anybody that skipped out on the sneaking suit version, I will only tell you this. DO NOT SKIP OUT ON THIS FIGURE!!!!!!! It is my favorite figure I own so far! I haven't got the fatigue version, but am still eyeballing it all the same. The Sneaking suit with the extra armor does look a little too chunky though. That version kinda makes me feel like we're watching Big Boss run around in some kind of 24-7 suit, which feeds him and lets him take a dump on the go. Just my opinion.
Oh also, just a side note question to anybody that might know. I have read in a review (I think it was on Amazon) that Play Arts released the Peace Walker figures initially from Japan, while the rest were made in China (of course). Is there any truth in this matter? Somebody please let me know.

I'm scared of any Hot Toys rubber items. yeah, I know how that sounds.

Im very curious about the materials for the MGS3 Snake. ultimately the look is whats the deciding factor. I hope they go for an artistic looking Snake rather than a realistic version( which they'll proli do)

The great thing about Play Arts is they make soo many figures it'll be hard to miss out. Even now you can get the first peace walker snake for £30, amazing! That said im proli gonna double up on each one

The only issue is the QC, they can have loose joints and such but hopefully their stepping up their game in that aspect as they have with their licenses.

Its a great time to be a solid snake fan. Really hope squeenix has plans for a metal gear rex in the pipeline

that would be sick. A ThreeA one for home and a Play Arts for your desk lol

I wouldn't mind bringing a few things to have in my cubicle, but some people don't understand the concept of look don't touch.

They are action figures, not dolls! lol

Better look at the Grey Fox head sculpt for Play Arts.



very cool beans

 

[octo]

That does look very nice, except the eyes rolling back look. Looks like he's either dead or having an orgasm.

 

[ZombieRepublican]

"hurt me mooooorrreeeee!"

 

[Solidus]

"hurt me mooooorrreeeee!"

Yeah, he was having an orgasm from that fight. I think the head-sculpt is pretty accurate, leave it as is!
