Great review! This is a great figure and a must if you have the Snake figure. I have never ordered from Goodsmile for the bonuses because they are just forcing you to buy from them just for some extra accessory that should be included anyway. I like the Figuarts bonuses because I can get them with AmiAmi.
GSC does offer Flat rate shipping of 2k yen... roughly $20 despite of different release dates on a single order. It's great for group buys. But yeah, we just don't get the amiami discount which usually offsets the shipping cost.
Sorry for being asked the same question all over again, but did you buy 2 of the different bases (A&B) and attached it, or? Cuz the one I saw is not as big as the one in this video. Thank you for the review.
I have the old style chain base when they still call it #1 through #10. My setup is 12x the old sets. If you were to make it with the new sets, that's 3 of A and 3 of B. The new ones now comes with 2 walls and 2 floors on a single set. Always buy set A and B in pairs. You can start with 1 pair, but the best one is having 3 pairs. Also, you can always make it bigger.
Thanks meades, unfortunately amiami only have the B part, I'm considering to get 7 of those, but maybe not gonna look good. And I saw your other video about hongli base's review, after posting this comment, sort of got the idea. Thanks again, meades.
Kotobukiya is re-issuing them. Look for Model Support Goods (MSG) Mechanical Chain Base. There's Rack A and Rack B. You can find them online, such as the online store Amiami.
XenoheaD heya FYI On eBay they have it currently for $36. The China imitation version is $16. Prolly not a good idea to order a model kit in China version because the pieces may not line up correctly. It's tough to know because the sellers always use pictures from the real versions while selling fake versions. The low price and the mentioning it is China version is in the description. On Amiami (if you are new to this, here's some things I wish I knew) (if anyone has thoughts, tips, Suggs for newbies ordering please chime in) Expect to pay $40 economy to US, DHL $75 you won't know until you put order in & wait for invoice. Then you are expected to pay it. Amiami (my n00b Amiami exp. Like the titles? ;) ) I pre ordered bishoujo Edward Sissorhands & a prize figure. $80+10 and shipping was $77!! I almost fainted! Even with some other figures being less money, it may or may not be worth it. I couldn't find a way to cancel. I've heard that they don't like it when people cancel preorders. I had to email them. Then I went on eBay to trusted sellers shipping from the Japan factories in China. Ordered the last Edward Scissorhands, & Revetech Deadpool released Oct 22. It was shipped out on the 23rd. I paid $90 for Edward Bishoujo, $75 for Deadpool (which costs $55 in Amazon Japan w/o Shipping) So in this case it cost less for me to buy from EBay. I'm not worried. They sold plenty & eBay protects the buyer more then sellers. Amazon too. Amazon had them same price but the seller was new.
Those emotes exclamations are hilarious! Haha makes for a great UA-cam icon or banner! 😂
You're right that the magazine on the gun is supposed to be canted to one side. it's part of the original design of the gun.
Thanks for the info.
Can i buy it in shopee
man I wish they release the arsenal tengu..of mgs2. Good review thinking of buying it
That'll be great if they did.
looks fantastic I can only hope that they do more metal gear solid characters and hopefully Silent Hill.
Awesome review, i HAVE TO BUY IT because i collect MGS2 (my favorite game of all time) action figures.

Brilliant :) what are you using for the background ? It looks awesome
I believe glowing eyes happen when soldiers spot the magazine
U have the privilege snake? i couldnt see the socom pistol.
Wish they made the ninja or liquid
Privilege Snake? what do you mean? The Snake i showed here is holding the SOCOM pistol
+Meadeslemicah privilege is like the exclusive one...its the name figma gave for it. i got the one 2 and very happy with it....very rare piece😏
ei that figure is pretty nice and rad. thanks for reviewing it for us. KUYA MEADS :)

I see it in shopee
I bet this would look great with Little Armory gun kits =)
They look good with girl figmas that have cool air on them.
Yes it would.
the gun is named AN-94 a Russian assault rifle
Thanks for the info
Meadeslemicah quick question what's your favorite figma figure you've reviewed on here?
Fox Reznov you have some Guns knowing
I dont have Any figma
Did yours happen to come with the tranquilizer darts? Awesome review by the way :)
I don't think the Tranq darts are part of the set.
where did you get your background?
