MGS2: Solid Snake [CLOSED]

[Dylan]

It's definitely looking awesome no doubt.

As for who's next, I'm pretty sure it's going to be Solidus and then Raiden.

Solidus in the grand scheme of things is much easier than Raiden due to the skull suit

Will mostly likely try get in ocelot from mgs1 and 2 in and possible redo mgs1 snake he Scaletta would kill it.

Obviously that's just what we've spoke about, and it's not like they get pumped out quick so who knows

Any possibility of a quick run of Miller head sculpts? No need for a full figure obviously.

One thing I haven't found out a decent work around for is how to attach the mag clips to the front of the vest

I was looking at magnets buts that a no go and then I considered having them on a loop threaded through the vest strap with stitch lines to stop them moving but don't think that's an option either, so they might end up having to be glued straight to the strap

The real LBV they are permanently attached so gluing them would make sense to me.

On a scale of normal to HT Naked Snake how's the articulation?

Wow this is looking amazing. Very jealous of all you getting it

Miller could be done, Sean would need 15 people @ $70 or 10 people @ $105, i imagine it would be difficult to find 15 people who want millers heads to make it regular price and even harder to find 10 who want to pay $105 but if there is enough people it could get done.

Not sure, i haven't seen the MGS2 in hand but i'm probably going to say about the same - maybe a little better.

I imagine the elbows and knees will be restricted some as there are printed pads within the sleeves so it's going to stress the suit earlier on in the bend if that makes sense.

Also, i think i'm gonna be putting up a thread for Old Snake head sculpt today, had a few people ask so think we will go ahead and do that next in the interim.

 

[Dylan]

Patch and bandanna?

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Didn't get around to putting it up yet but not sure, gonna go with whatever everyone wants

Patch and bandanna?

Here's how the vest looks from the back.

The one seam that's visible running down his back will be hidden under the vest for the run.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Dat butt.

Really thankful I got on board with this. All the buckles, the vest, really shaping up to the numero uno in my collection.

It really is way better than hot toys will ever do,.....if they ever would.

Wonderful suit !!

I want to see the head.

[Frank Jaeger]

There was a picture of the cast pages and pages ago.

The head is with a painter, not sure when it will be painted for but soon i hope. He only has a few bits because of the issues with the 3D prints of the other items.

The moldmaker is going to still be awhile casting everything, not that it matters much for those waiting for the suit but those who bought the head on it's own i'm sorry to say will have to wait until it's all done and shipped to me to ship out.

The moldmaker we use in a one man squad and he's in the middle of finishing up some other projects while feeding some snake stuff but there is alot of parts to cast. Just wanted to update you all on the status of the parts!

Thanks for the update, I think I speak for everyone when I say thank you and Scaletta for bringing this to life, if you keep up the MGS line we will all have something unique and special.

Seeing how things are with Hot Toys, it's the only line.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Honestly I just want to make high quality MGS figures.

I know the price is high but i've effectively stopped collecting HT and companies figures because A. there's nothing that takes my fancy outside of a few figures like Guts and B. i can focus on putting together something that is actually worthy of the high price we have to pay.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Outside of Deadpool, I'm done with HT for the foreseeable future. I'm passing on Ripley. Sick of HT half assing it.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I don't even have deadpool on order. I have TZ Guts and that's it. I'd buy a Big Chap if they decided to do a 2.0 and some more Arnie figures
