Metal Gear Solid Collectibles

A guy I know is selling all of his mgs collection on a local forum. This includes 14 pak figures(no PW) + 3A Rex & PO amount for Ray for approximately $1312.
Damn good price but no one seems to be interested. It's sad to see a fellow collector quitting.

I think you guys forgot there was two waves of re releases for ninja and 3 for Solid Snake in the first year. I don't see them being reissued honestly.

 

[ZombieRepublican]

They never reissue these figures! Theres one run and done

Heres the Merchandise Coordinator for Square explaining.

 

[FSLAR]

I just checked Ryan's links again. The site no longer mentions the re-releases, the PO time frame nor is there an option to po period.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

What do they expect? The main protagonist to not be available and people will just buy up the secondary characters when theyre made eventually? Theyll sit and rot and retailers will be stuck with them forever. Good strategy square.

 

[FSLAR]

Exactly Jason.

this wouldn't be so bad but this is the only figure of Solid we have at all.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

i have/had many iterations. but imo the pak was my favorite one.

 

[FSLAR]

In the PAK line up I mean. I don't think until Revoltech and GSC came, they were many other 'recent' alternatives too. McFarlane and Yamato did some but that was long ago I think.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Am I the only one clamouring for an HT GZ BB at SDCC then?

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Itd be cool but i never gave it a thought. Id rather a tpp one honestly.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

So would I but I think GZ is more likely at the moment.

 

[Solidus]

I'd still rather a MGS 3 Naked Snake figure in Jungle Fatigues -___-. It's the most iconic look for Big Boss.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I like TTP Big Boss design so i'd pick him up but i really detest the iron man arm

I've always had a soft spot the sneaking suit though. It's staple MGS

Whilst I would love that, HT would still not use the correct game model for the sculpt.

At least GZ or TPP would look great and still be accurate.

 

[shiftyraccoon]

I still love the Revoltech Snake with a box

 

[LipSmack]

judging by the movement of the last HT's BB I wold want something in fatigues more, sneaking suit is only cool if you can pose him sneaking

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Ht naked snake does pose in many sneaking poses. I have been able to do many simply by turning the body inside the suit.

his entire torso is one solid piece, dont try and tell me a convincing sneaking pose can be achieved with zero hunching over...

 

[Frank Jaeger]

No it's not actually.

I bought the HT Naked Snake body for my Solid Snake custom and it's got an ab pivot.

the underbody does but he's covered in a solid torso piece
