God damn my wallet is going to get victimized. Bad enough were getting statues and busts, but variants too??? This is nuts.

800 pages for $80? Beats that overpriced set they put out for the anniversary.

 

[Solidus]

I didn't even hesitate to order that. Thanks for watch... I mean, posting.

Life size bust concept not final sculpt

Looks like they really went ham with emulating the young Snake in MGS4. They need to fix the bandana over the right eye, you never see skin above the eyes on Snake.

I'm thinking it's what was released with that anniversary set since it's comprised of the same games. 1-4 and PW.

I'd love this in 1/4 scale. No reason for life size at all.

A 1/4 bust is too small. Either 1/2 or 1/1.

 

[RIDDICK]

Anything bigger than 1/3 is too big.
What's the point in a life size bust of an obviously unrealistic cartoonish design?
And yes, I now that Sideshow still does these comic book lookin' LS busts... and it's still as stupid as it was back in the day.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

dont say that to the mk peepz...................feelz fo daze.

 

[RIDDICK]

Yeah, those are dumb lookin' too... And that's coming from an mk peep.

Owning a bust of a life size cartoonish design. Whats the point in having a 1/4 bust of an obviously unrealistic cartoonish design? Not following...

IMO when it comes to Bust, either 1/1 or go home. Unless it's one of those miniature chess pieces. for 1/6 you can use it as a diorama set, but 1/4, 1/3, 1/2 would look totally out of place.

Japanese have 1/1 cartoonish doll figures. If they can't afford it, they can opt for a 1/1 cartoon printed pillow.

Fair enough.
When you have a scaled figure of something unrealistic it feels like a toy. When you have a man size statue or bust of something unrealistic it feels forced, uncomfortable and ultimately out-of-place.

If it doesn't end up being 1:1 then I'd go for 1:3. Plus it will be cheaper

 

[ZombieRepublican]

That bust looks great! I'm glad we're finally getting game/art accurate Snake sculpts. It's a shame I'm not into statues

 

[Maisto]

I'm surprised 1:1 scale busts are still being produced. Who has enough room? The codec bust is intriguing though...

 

[ZombieRepublican]

Even if I can't afford them. Im glad we're still getting Merch.

I've accepted we're not getting a good MGS maybe ever again. But I need a constant steam of Merch!
