Metal Gear Solid Collectibles

[Lawrence]

Got my Solidus PAK figure yesterday. Impressive.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Congratulations! Overall the best PAK to date.

 

[Lawrence]

Cheers. It's my first Metal Gear PAK. Now I want more.

 

[Snake Plissken]

That's a hellva start, the only one I'd say that's close to the quality is the Ninja.

 

[Lawrence]

Cyborg Ninja is another one I want, but pricing can get crazy.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Yeah everyone says that. No one picked him or Snake up since they were listed for $59.99 and now people would kill for those prices.

Oh my god, what a ****ty wait it was to get this site back. just went on the desktop site and theres no way thats finished product. its horribly arranged and looks like when ebay loads bad. its not fun at ll to navigate. originaly i thought all my inbox messages were gone!!! at least theres functionality i guess...................

I told everyone in the beginning to buy these things and everyone was crapping on them. Now they change their tune and want them badly. i dont feel sorry for those people. the ones who never knew about them is another story, hopefully they do a reissue. like i said SE would be stupid not to given they took way too long to release liquid. who wants to buy a liquid when they dont at least have solid? if they did id buy 2 of each - solid/ninja.

LAWRENCE - Got my Solidus PAK figure yesterday. Impressive.

nice! i love that figure so much i bought 2. make sure to submerge the tentacle chest plate in hot water for a little bit so you can get those 2 black articulations freed up, theyre paint stuck so they wont swivel. just take your time and be careful.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Like you, I bought them up immediately.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Well, i DID just recently pay $130 for ninja mib so i could mod the old one...........so i guess i kinda got ripped but id rather pay double than 3-5x's that. Thats just silly or real desperation..............for a toy. Its not even exclusive.

I got all my PAK for retail bar red ninja

I flat out HATE this new layout, and you guys know I've never used the word "hate" before. Nothing was wrong with the old layout but now things are not only harder to navigate and full of junk (number of topics listed on athe far right of a sub-board, seriously?), but also whoever came up with the bright (no pun intended) idea of having this blizzard s*** storm of whiteness should be demoted to assigning colors to Japanese sandals instead.

I'm really squinting my eyes on my 32", the text is much smaller than before and I can't zoom up without compromising what's shown on page. This whole revamp really ruined my day!

Also, two Iron Men and.. Alfred? Who gave such deep thoughts into it and said, "yeah, if anybody deserves to be on the SSF banner, its ******ing Alfred".

End rant.

well, i just saw this by DLD on the homepage that maybe no one saw because of the mess. it was written in bold red though:

Okay, I'm tired and there is still a lot to do - but I wanted to activate the forum so you can get back to complaining about stuff.

.
so yeah, its not done. hopefully soon though i hate this site right now and will mostly be going mobile for awhile

Indeed. I'm curious (and anxious) as to how much longer does the program need, but in the meantime I'll be using my android phone for SSF at the moment.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

omg!!! i wish i saw this when i was looking for kubricks. this is an unheard of price and apparently theyre all complete. this is all 3 sets for $125 guys. somebody better get this NAOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

[BigBoss9293]

Its not the complete set of the MGS 2 Kubricks which usually are much more expensive though

Thanks for the advise. Takes a bit of tweaking to get this figure posed the way I want it, but It's a fun figure.

Out of the PAK figures released already, sneaking suit Snake & cyborg ninja are the only ones I really want, although I should have battle dress Snake on it's way to me, which I got in an XBox 360 Peace Walker premium package. I'm in the process of playing Portable Ops, so I can play Peace Walker, then go into GZ & tPP. I'm on an MG buzz I think.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

I know man, but the soldiers are mega easy to find and relatively cheap. Forgot about em.

No problem, snake and ninja are awesome. Although, i never pose snake. Maybe thatll change tonight. Those 360 pps are extremely cheap, theres one for $50 but the shipping is kinda high.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

evilface sent me a message with a pic of the next batch of decals which my revengeance ones are in:

im pretty pumped and cant wait to receive them. he said he sent em yesterday so ill have pics up soon. hopefully i get them tomorrow or saturday.

btw, the new site looks pretty decent. its not all that bad. a couple of things are moved around but im figuring it out.

 

[Lawrence]

I saw the XBox 360 PW PP for $60 shipped from Japan, so I got that. Pretty nice deal I think. Although, I'm not sure how well MG plays on anything not made by Sony.

I think sneaking suit Snake is still available at the Konami store, but after emailing, they wouldn't let me pay for it, or ship to me. I can get it for around $130 + shipping elsewhere, but I might see if battle dress Snake impresses enough to help me decide if it's worth getting any of the other PW PAK Snakes.

Pretty excited for GZ & tPP Snake figures. Even though that pic with the multiple GZ sculpts didn't impress so much.

On not buying PAK Snake and Ninja when they came out, I am one of those people who did not know about PAKs or most brands (S.H. Figuarts, Figma, Revoltech, Hot Toys, etc.) when they came out. I may not have bought them at the time since I thought MGS1 was good but I wasn't too sold on the series (only game I played at the time), along with having a Kojibro friend trying to shove the series down my throat for the past four years at the time.

I also really said this, but CQC, that mod on your ninja is pretty awesome looking. If I ever get a ninja, I hope to mod him like yours. I saw some mods like that on Final Fantasy Merchandise as well, I think yours is a bit better.
