Hmmmm. It's an interesting concept. Can't say I see anything that would make me pay 30 bucks for them (what they'll cost when you buy them from BBTS), but I'll watch where they go.

Kinnikuman definitely makes sense in the 4" scale, but I would have preferred a MGS 3 Solid Snake. This would have been a fucking beautiful as a 4" Revoltech:

Give them time they might do Naked Snake for that 60s Cold War fiction goodness.

What's funny is I've been reading others reacting to this. A lot of people are pissed that it's not in the usual revoltech scale. As for me? I've wanted a proper Solid Snake figure since I was a fucking kid. Think excites me to no end!


Also, when it arrives I'll gladly do a review for those on the fence.

I'd say these are the beginnings of a separate line, much like the Fraulein line was separate from the regular Revoltech releases.

Minus the snake camo though. Either drabs or tiger stripe.

That is the most awesome prone position ever from a 1/18 scale figure. This figure ought to have a sniper rifle and a heavy machine gun!

Screw the fragile-sockets-that-can-easily-pop-out, I gonna buy this tosser.

EDIT: Great snakes! His eyes turn?!

Man I don't even care. I'm still gonna photograph the hell outta it.

what he said! wee bit of forced perspective...looking round corners etc and he will look sweet as!..and modding a few joe figs with platform boots wont be hard!

aye.... theres gonna be some great dio opportunities for this fig..
sneaking a look round corridor corners etc.. snake spends most of th crouching and moochin around so I cant see th height bein too much of a prob.. he may well be bulkier as well but again no biggie..

Looks like Snake won't be alone after all!


According to Hideo Kojima's twitter, there's still a lot of fine tuning to do, but so far, I'm very impressed.

4" snake is up for preorder already on eBay if anyone was wondering...

Idk if I'd preorder anything,let alone from some scetchy foreign seller(they're all sketchy IMO tho) on eBay...you only got so long to make a Paypal claim too. Paypal has loop holes big enough to walk a 1:1 scale metalgear through too. lol@being protected.

There are a couple of Japanese etailers that are legit if you're disinclined to wait for BBTS.
