No place for Raiden.... !



Had no place for that Rex so Raiden had to move out.

 

[Dylan]

How much does that Rex run? I didn't realize it was out.

 

[FSLAR]

There is no truth like Pliss said.

cmon, they have more than 10 available without the box? china version? they were recasted. the coloring looks bad too. raiden was way sold out and hasnt been under $130 respectively. any ones you see for $60 to $80 on ebay are from china in a plastic tray and they have a quantity of them. imho mgs2 raiden, mgrr raiden, sneaking suit venom, and quiet all have bootlegs. no other figure has been sold in the tray like that. the site i gave you guys was from a bootlegger of statues. im sure the trays are easy to form. im just wondering where they get the joints from, unless theyre printing those. unfortunately 3d printing is ruining the industry as much as it is improving it and the recasting is getting almost perfect. china steals like no other, they make so much money off of others ideas.

The box is actually the easiest to bootleg. The tray that fits is the hard one since you need to get a factory to do it.

 

[FSLAR]

You can actually still get a legit MGS 2 Raiden for MUCH chepaer not sure about MGR Raiden but I severely doubt it.

With no box and China and so many, it's probably a bootleg.

Surprised how little the Half-Sized ThreeA Rex has been mentioned in this thread. Anyone actually pick it up? And if so, how does it hold up at that smaller size? I dig the big Rex but I'm considering selling it off and replacing it with the 1/2 version of Rex & Ray (since I only ever had room for one of the full sized versions).

 

[Jameson Rook]

Interesting. Kojima just Tweeted this MGSV theory, which means he's giving it his seal of approval:

-- There's been a lot of talk, mainly on the Internet, about MGSV being "unfinished." What's your take on this?

Yano: I think there were two stages to this. First, you had a certain number of players who finished Chapter 2 not long after the game came out and went, “What? This Snake wasn't the real Big Boss!?” It's similar to the way people reacted to MGS2 (laughs). Some players couldn't accept that there was a new main character, Raiden, and they got really angry. But now MGS2 is considered a masterpiece. MGSV is a much longer game than MGS2, so it's like its length amplified that feeling.

I want them, but I'm not sure I'm into robots. There are several reviews on Youtube though, check those out!

 

[Diamond Dog]

I've both full size and half sized Rex and smaller one is defiantly better in everyway. Only reason I would choose bigger one is well because of size and removable pieces.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

yeah, i love the smaller ones too, but the big ones just have an unreal presence. i dont think ill ever sell them even if i start selling off my collection.
