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.

I can say for sure, Jungle Fatigues Snake is a good buy and should still be on the Konami store. He is worth the money, and doesn't seem to have issues that Battle Dress and Sneaking Suit Snake have.

Sneaking Suit Snake's price baffles me though, I don't see why he is so over priced. I found him and Battle Dress Snake for $30 each at a store, was gonna buy them but the store closed down a month later. I bought my Fatigues Snake from them long before.

yeah, sadly snake and ninja are at the rape rates of the century. i discovered them on ebay, preordered them, then bought all the peacewalker ones up quick. i was fortunate to get in just in time and preordered every figure from then on.

thank you very much for the kind words, if you want your ninja modded when or if you get one let me know.

The LED's are a nice touch. Nice custom work.

I think I can get jungle Snake locally for around $75 right now. What are the issues with sneaking suit & battle dress Snakes?

 

[FSLAR]

I've heard of issues, but idk what they are honestly. I heard Battle Dress Snake has posing issues, I think his joints break a bit more easily. Sneaking Suit not too sure on, personally I don't like his accessories. I would try to get Jungle Snake for a bit cheaper honestly.

Oh yeah, definitely!

$75 shipped is actually an alright price where I am. Maybe not a super bargain, but I have to factor in shipping cost from the US or Japan in with the price. Thanks for pointing out possible issues with the other PAK Snakes. Sounds like it's best to be extra careful with those to avoid breaking them.

The kubrick set has pretty good price and characters for anyone who's looking to start collecting them, great find there.

i wrote on the post that they were from a member named evilface. if you contact him he can make any stand labels you want. from what ive seen he does really excellent work. also his prices are extremely fair.

I want the metallic one for some reason.

 

[Jameson Rook]

Nice box! Seems like the PAK boxes have gotten bigger since Solidus.

Not bad.

Metallic Boss's box looks really nice, man I really am gonna want him. Anyone thinking of buying both the metallic variant and the standard one?

 

[ZombieRepublican]

Nice touch of replicating the cover art.

I never liked the open look of the boxs myself. I would have liked the doors that feature on other play arts like Halo. That with shinkawas art would be badass. Basically like the medicom figures boxs

 

[Snake Plissken]

If the Metallic version isn't a over priced pain in the *** to buy, I'll get it.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

You guys know ill have both.

 

[synysterfox]

Actually... I think metallic ver. is more blue-ish than the regular one it seems, right?

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

they could be using that purplish light they always use. it seems to make the paints look better. also they definitely used it on rex. i remember the cockpit having that awesome purple/blue color and we got a dark blue.

they also used it on raiden pak

heres the one youre talking about compared to the original.

 

[synysterfox]

Yeah I now see some purple reflection on the black parts of the metallic suit... good eye there CQC C:
