Solidus is an AMAZING figure, so is Gray Fox, but Solidus doesn't have an accurate headsculpt and Fox is a bit gold. Not knocking off the figures though, just sayin'.

Yeah his hair hanging down is in the center when it should be slightly off center. What bugs be is that is collar is too low when his head should be at least 3/5 covered by it.
 
I love the sculpt they gave Solidus, reminds of me the Shogun from the Lone Wolf manga (don't recall his name). I want a 1/6 version of that sculpt.
 
He sure did. It became very apparent in MGS2 during the Tanker raid that it felt very real. :clap Still one of my favorite scenes from the game.

I love the interview with Mori in the back of the MGS3 guide.

Did you watch the PAL Making of DVD? It's awesome back in its time.

If you really compare the two pictures the one on the right he's leaning back with his head forward that's why his collar looks higher the collar height is accurate

I have to disagree, whenever the blast door closed over his face in the game it went up to the top of the bridge of nose and you can only see his eyes. If you see the shot when he jumps on that one RAY after unloading the P90 in it, it's a straight on shot of him with the door closed.
 
why does your solidus have a girraffe neck. i might be wrong but mine looks like it sits lower if the shot on the left is of your figure. okay, after that explanation ill bite.

I'm pretty certain I still have my screencaps from The Document of MGS2 somewhere..

Ah, found one! Apologies though, this is the most centered one I have for now.

Nah, that's not mine Jason. Unfortunately, I don't have one yet. :(
 
As much as I love PAK Solidus, I think the McFarlane figure has a better sculpt. I'm not sure how the neck collars compare on the figures though - I'll have to check that out later on.
 
ryan, his head is down again, he must be reading a book.the edge of his cowl should be at his nose.

You're right Jason. Sorry, I guess it's his default stance. Maybe I'll screencap shots from cutscenes next time. I'm sure I'm gonna post high res shots of Raiden once the PAK figure comes out.
 
the illusion is, which isnt even, that every shot his head is down pushing out of the cowl. thats why im being so persistent. his chest is always out.

Okay then, I don't have the software in my PC yet, but I'll get back on getting more shots when I can. Sheesh, I'm like the boards' unofficial MGS2 screen cap guy. :lol
 
I prefer the PAK sculpt to the original game render. It looks far better and actually more like Solid and Liquid

Never understood why they were all clones from BB but only Solid and Liquid looked like each other :cuckoo:

Solid and Liquid have their mother's looks as well and aren't directly copied from Big Boss. They have the Japanese genes of Para-medic's assistant and Big Boss.

Solidus somehow is a direct clone of Big Boss and his rate of aging was much faster than Solid and Liquid since he was already a grown man in the 80's in Liberia when he trained Raiden.
