Naked Snake Medicom Release date

[Gray Fox]

Hello.

Does anyone know when is the Naked Snake Tiger Stripe Camouflage 12" figure from Medicom going to be released??
Was it delayed or something?? Cause in the site i pre-ordered it, it says it will come out the 31st of January, and on play.com it says it will come out on March 26th...
If anyone knows anything please let me know.

Thanks!!

I would like to know this too.

Any updates from anyone who might know (a dealer, perhaps)? I'm ready to bite the bullet on a Medicom Snake, and figure I'll get one of the re-releases.

I thought it should be out already?

Here's hoping that it's never out

The "Cold War with sun tan" version was released, but not the other two as far as I know. I haven't seen any online retailers eBay or otherwise selling them

I guess you paid for the originals

If so, it could be worse. Medicom has re-released 1/96 blind boxed chase Kubrick figures in widely released 2-packs going for $30. That would piss me off as a collector, if I had shelled out the money for them originally.

--edit: Goodshipped says it should be in stock within 30 days, for what that's worth:

Yeah I paid a hefty sum for the original Tiger Stripe, one year ago (about twice as much as what you'll be paying right now). But, I don't regret it too much, as the figure is an absolute BEAUTY to behold! You're definitely in for a treat once you get your figure in hand!

But, all in all, it would be nice if Medicom provided edition numbers (with numbered certificates) for their limited stuff. Ah well...

 

[karamazov80]

Yeah, even though I'm going to be taking advantage of this, I think it would be better all the way around if Medicom would just release additional variants instead of straight re-releases. Like the Cold War version, for instance. There are so many different looks from that game, that would only require repainting the existing head and re-dying the existing outfit. Not sure why they are doing things this way.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Interested to see what boxes these come in.

 

[Gray Fox]

So, does anyone else got an ideia?

 

[The Josh]

I really don't want to see anyones naked snake.

 

[Demimatt]

The site I ordered from keeps saying Feb or 2010, but I was wondering if anyone knoes if these are going to be exact remakes or if they are using a new body. thanks!

i get the horrible feeling these are going to be canceled... no word from anybody, seems just weird...

 

[Calcifer]

damn! i wish they would be out already .. i got cold war and have ordered the other 2 ..just dying 2 have my ultimate snake display. ..and they should have made a sneaking suit version.

If that's indeed the case, then I really feel sorry for the folks who auctioned off their Snake figures at sub-level prices.

 

[boochydog]

is this re-released version going to come with the bonus croc head part from the 2005 version limited to 1000 pieces?

is there a good website that shows pictures of each version?

Yah it's a mixed blessing for me. I got tired of waiting in January, and managed to find a Zombie snake for $150 shipped... I couldn't say no, and I'm happy with it. But I'd still love a tiger camo snake, although the croc is really the one I want most

I ordered both re-release zombie and tiger stripe, but I agree, I really want croc cap snake and maybe after I get these two I will be content or be more pushed to drop $350 on croc cap to complete the set.

 

[Demimatt]

I got some news, although dunno how viable it is. But I was searching for more pre order info regarding the brick camo snake and a place had its pre order date set to may of 2010. So.... only 1 more month?
