It's going to feel like the Congo for awhile on the east coast. I'm still waiting on Blue Raiden too, I hope it isn't too price gouged on eBay after SDCC starts.
 
Were going to get raped just like Red Ninja. Hopefully the arm doesn't break on Raiden and I got to get a replacement like last year like with Red Ninja.
 
i always bend the joints at the joints instead of using the leverage of the whole arm. ive never even felt like a joint was going to snap at all. also i always put my figs in hot water to loosen them up and to press all the pegs firmly into their mounting holes. a lot of these figures arent pressed together very well and you cant do it cold.
 
I know how to manipulate the joints but the problem is the plastic they used on Gray Fox's elbow joints is very brittle. My other two Foxes feel like they can snap very easily. The Raidens feel very strong and sturdy.
 
I cracked and paid $120 for Solid Snake (reasonable by eBay standards). He's a really impressive figure, I can get him into some great poses. My MGS collection now consists of Snake, Gray Fox, Solidus, Black Raiden and White Raiden...I'm thinking of chasing down the rest!

Good luck. I decided to buy every MGS PAK at the beginning of the year. Cost me about $2000 to buy singles of all of them (and I own 2 of most of them).

I would kill to find him for that much. I'm dying to get Solid and Gray... but I really don't want to spend more than $150 a piece. When did the one you got go up on ebay? I check several times everyday, and keep missing them.:gah:
 
No one predicted how crazy the PAK MGS1 and Rising would go for, to think that I let my baby cousin play and trash my PAK Solid Snake when I first bought him because I didn't like him that much. :lol
 
heres a hint to all the collectors out there. if you see a price on ebay, it doesnt hurt to cordially message a seller to barter with them. buy it now doesnt always mean that thats all theyd accept. most people are disillusioned as to the worth of a product due to horrible scalping. it throws everyone off making them think that price is okay. some people have things listed forever wondering why no one is buying. when you find a price thats like $20-$50 over what youre willing to pay, ask. its only going to help you out.

Completely agree, same thing I do xD

I did the for the 3A Metal Gear Rex, the guy had it listed for $355 brand new (still a steal)...and I offered $300 and we settled at $315.
 
thats an epic deal on that figure. yeah its heavy on its joints but i think its worth what i paid for it. (retail) im suprised when i posted the limited edition gekkos no one said ANYTHING. im kinda bummed about it. here they are:
