Thanks Barry, I still have a long way to go when it comes to LEDs but I'm learning. Loving the remote control. I think I recall seeing your Youtube video of your LEDs, it was jawdropping.

Hey, where's your channel?

Should be a little Youtube icon under my "reputation" bar.
If you're not seeing it, let me know.

In other news, i have added a pistol onto the leg armour of the female armoured figure i have been working on using magnets again.
It's just the Ada Wong grapple gun. And with the gap left by removing the calf armour, i popped on the Raiden throwing knives
I have also made her a sword suspended on a nickel plated chain. The chain is magnetised onto the magnet on her back, loops around and holds onto a smaller magnet on her thigh and back around to the magnet on the back. Held in place like that, the sword just hangs in place. I am still working on a master pattern for her helmet.
Here's a vid of the figure doing a turnaround.

Mad skills Barry. Mad skills. Love to see the finished work.

Thanks buddy, you really should. I have a sudden epiphany that LEDs is the way of the future.

Praise thee and uphold the way of LED lights They shall light the way forward.

I've def gotta show my collection this weekend though, especially with two figures coming today and/or tomorrow

What's coming? Something MGS related?

Great pics and setup! Love Raiden's pose here.

 

[punkg42]

Finally got a chance to set up my PAKS on a new shelf (as I needed a place to put Rex) and did some rearranging. Figured I'd share the pics.

 

[punkg42]

The 18" figs in the back will probably be moved eventually. Maybe for some MGS artwork or poster behind.

Great pics and setup! Love Raiden's pose here.

Thank you! It's reassuring to hear you like the pose. I was sad I had to let go of my two favorite poses for Snake and Raiden due to the enclosed cabinet.

 

[Jameson Rook]

Gorgeous setup punkg42!

You better sell that Robocop a.s.a.p though..

holy cow those are awesome!
I may have to steal one of your Raiden poses... mine is just kinda standing there with his sword at the moment.

Thanks. This is just the PAKS. I have some McFarlane ones carded and loose in another area as well.

Why sell Robo asap?

Because hot toys is reissuing him. He won't be worth as much after.

Nice!

It's not a Hot Toy... it's an 18" Neca figure.

Absolutely, I don't mind! You'll need a very tall stand to give the illusion that he's in mid air and give him some presence.

Exactly what WellCQC said.

Oh, sorry my bad. Could have sworn that was the original HT Robo.

Your Raiden is bad@$$, can't overstate that Jason!

Nah but some Hot Toys, you know show my whole collection ot the forum. I should show my other MGS things like games and art book though.

That pose for Raiden and Solid Snake in your old display though is awesome, how'd you get Snake in that pose?

Love to see your collection then!

As for that Snake pose, I used the Medicom stand to grip one thigh and make sure the wrist peg that will be bearing the figure's weight is tight enough or it will come off. It was getting boring seeing him in all the standard poses. I think I was sort of inspired by the Mcfarlane Neo.

Here it is from the front, it was on a rotating display base with LEDs:

Though I recall someone he saying he "on a stripper pole."

Ryan is much too modest to mention it, but just so you guys know, his Sniper Wolf custom was retweeted by Kojima on Twitter. Now, laud over him with your praises!
