That's a pretty awesome discount on those two figures. Have you considered ordering RAY from SSC, by the way? They have Flex Payments that start at $63 per month.

Thats my plan right now I will just be in boot camp for when he comes out and my wife will have to deal with the payments and getting him in the mail on top of everything else.

 

[Solidus]

I think the first Flex Payment starts in a few months. But, just as a heads-up: my shipping for REX was around $45, when SSC shipped it out. It'll probably be the same for RAY.

Thanks frank. Raiden will have a black holster and trimmed hair. Ill be getting a 2nd raiden for a dual display so ill have 2 heads i can mod. I was even thinking of ripping the hair off like i did the mgrr raiden and maybe trying to resculpt it on there. I also was going to use paint thinner on the stock hair to make it a foggy clear so MAYBE itll look like his white hair. Just got him yesterday and my work area is a **** hole so ill be cleaning it up tonight. Im going to grab the thinner on the way home and give it a shot tonight, wish me luck! If all goes well hell have white hair and a black holster, well see how lazy i am later. Im not even weary to mod these things anymore.

Another project i want to do is to repaint the gold on the mgs1 ninja to the flat rose color and make a deluxe figure with the open faced head and the red ninjas tray. Ill also do the led mod to the closed head as well as paint the gold part on the back of both helmets. On another note red ninja will have an orange led behind the green lens. I did some research and to me thats the color that illuminates from red ninja on the original mgs and tts.

Another thing i want to do is put the blue leds on both sides of mgrr raidens sheath as well as craft a spine where he gets energy from with full lumen. Thatll be my baby because no one else has done it. I will also relocate ALL of the shath arms to the hip area as well as shorten them on the rest of the raiden team.

Will you do weekly payments? Lol

Yeah I am pretty sure the shipping is going to be about the same anywhere you get it. Its understandable considering his size.

Who here has gotten their Raiden and Liquid?

 

[Snake Plissken]

I haven't yet, I currently cancelled them both because I just dropped $250 on SSC Darth Vader. I'll get them soon enough.

I think by next month I'll put RAY on Flex Pay.

 

[Dylan]

I place I got them from says they wont come in till February??

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

i got the same mentality as you plis. i already got raiden though. i had to solidus looks dumb by himself. flexpay on ray will be coming within a month for me too.

 

[Dylan]

If I have to wait for Feb to get Liquid and Raiden I am just going to get Ray today.

MGS and the Alien franchise have been killing my budget lately.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I have had to pass on a lot lately, I still need to buy up the remaining Advent Children PAK since I only have Vincent. I've been considering selling my PAK collection of Street Fighter and Batman.

 

[Dylan]

I sold my Adam Jensen Play Arts to get some extra cash and shelf space. It got me $90 which considering I spent $40 on it was good.

I kinda miss it now tho.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

youve been talking about that a bit lately. i feel if you feel that way its probably because it needs to be done. youll get some cash towards a new avenue of collecting. i know once the financial hurdle i have is lifted soon i will be getting other non mgs related stuff ive been eying for quite some time.

i wanted an adam jensen but never pulled the trigger because i never finished the game. i think aesthetically hes a pretty sick figure and who doesnt like cyborgs? i wish i didnt get rid of bayonetta/jean or sam gideon/bogey. i truly loved those figs but mgs was more important at the time.

 

[Snake Plissken]

And plus I don't feel like buying the remaining figures anyway. I got about 10 Batman figures and 4 Street Fighter.

 

[Dylan]

I dont have a single Batman Play Arts. I think some of the side characters look cool but they haven't made a Batman I can tolerate yet.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I never got any of the batman ones either

I've been thinking of selling off all my play arts FF figures but it's just a ballache

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

do a lot and price it fairly to you to start and put it on a 10 day bidding.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I might try on here. I'll list them for retail, what I paid for it.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

UK market is much different to the uk, not many people buy in bulk they look for the odd ones they don't have

I'd end up selling all the good ones and not being able to sell the less popular ones
