It was a commission done not too long ago.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Yeah, i have one too. i got an old bb ready to post, i just need my heads back from pete.

Might be worth asking Frank Jaeger if he has a spare.

Thanks for the feedback regarding scale guys maybe I will keep the kotos then. Also, thats a fiiine Baws you got there Jedi
,!

1/2 the size of 3a should be twice the size of koto easily.

Just lightly larger than the Koto figs. Koto's are 1/100 scale, and the ThreeA figures are 1/48. So, the half-size ThreeA figures should... be 1/96.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Rex is actually 1:30 something scale because thats what size figs fit in there. I remeber when i made my liquid figure. Not sure where 3a got the scale they were advertising.

 

[Solidus]

Well, there's actually some scale discrepancy between the cockpit and the figure itself. I remember from the ThreeA forum, they said that they had to make REX's cockpit slightly larger, for balancing issues. I'm guessing that the cockpit is 1/30 and the rest of the figure is 1/48.

I don't know how that works really, because the figure looks almost prefect in proportion, when compared to Shinkawa's art work.

Here's what I was talking about with the head -

Right side:

Left side:

The left side of the face around the eyeslit is convex, for some reason. At first I thought it was just mine and I'd been unlucky with the QC, but looking through pics on Google Images they're all like this.

Other than that, not bad if you can get the hips to work properly.

I just checked all mine and they're all good, like both sides are the same, flat on both sides, I'll try to snap a pic laturz.

I don’t know if you guys are getting the Gecco Raiden but its still up for preorder on cornerstorecomics for a decent price.

I’m not a big statue collector but this statue looks way too awesome to pass on.

I'm definitely getting it. It's $140 on Amiami the last time I checked.

I really wish Hot Toys would hurry the **** up with their Raiden so I can decide which one to get before the Gecco figure's prices get absurd on the aftermarket.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

get them both and sell the one you dont want, worst case scenario is you make money when they go for absurd prices.

I'm getting both. I originally was only getting the HT version, but the Gecco is too much of awesome.

Or you could do that too.

 

[J3D1_KN1GHT]

Not really been to interested in the HT Rising version of Raiden, picked up the white PAK as it came with the game but apart from that i'm not too bothered.
Think I may even favour the crappy Medicom one, design wise.

[J3D1_KN1GHT]

Very sweet! Been looking for one for a while now after one of you guys posted not long back.

Plastic swords are all the rage:

I'd get a Sam sword, but I don't want a prop version. Plus, they horribly wrote "Murasama" on the handle.

Wouldn't trust that for a second as a functional sword, but it'd look amazing on top of a cabinet full of MGS figures

Oh yeah I don't plan on wacking stuff with it, just for display. Plus, it comes with that display base.
