The suit comes on a body and it's non removable

Oh okay, never mind then :lol

Yeah the way it's been designed, all the parts within the suit means they need to make them all to a body and put it all together themselves and ship it to me complete

I'll put it all together and ship them most likely

What body did you guys go with, a TTM19 clone?

I actually don't know, I left that up to Scaletta on which bodies they can get but for what I've seen it looks fine

That's probably what I'll end up doing for Liquid. They seem almost as good as the real thing, so there's no reason to pay through the nose for one. Besides, it's going to be covered anyway for Snake.

Yeah that's the idea, it most probably is a knock of 19 as they are the only base body that would fit that you can get in abundance

Only downside is they aren't double jointed elbows but unfortunately we can't have everything

Little something to close tonight off with.

Just the hands to finish now which should be done tomorrow.

Not double jointed is the only downside to that body as far as I can see. Unfortunately, it's one of the many times where HT preferred aesthetics over functionality. At least the clones are so heavily available everywhere. Cheap too.

Looking good. I'm glad glad this is getting done too. His clothing and stuff shouldn't be hard at all to get. There's literally hundreds of SEAL figures done in 1/6 to get parts from.

All the rest of my parts for IP should be in this week. Im praying the hands i chose arent garbage, i was planning on just having him complete as soon as the head arrives. One question though, are the bullets on his side shotgun or regular bullets i just couldnt find a good enough shot and didnt want to go through videos. The head mock up looks great.

I've struggled to find hands aswell. Closest is the left or right barney Ross hand but it's just the one hand that's gloved and it's got an open palm or at least partly open so I guess it's good from one angle

There's no real boots that are similar either so gonna have to wing it on them unless something crops up

Re: [sdabbs] [scaletta] MGS2: Solid Snake - TAKING 1/2 DEPOSITS (DUE 31/01/16)

I got 2 different pairs of boots, 1 of which came in today. I also got in his third hip pouch, knee pads, and radio. I just have to dye his new vest and assemble it. I also got the uniform in for my other genome soldier. Another thing that came in was a sweet mk23 pistol with silencer and pouch. Im probably going to swap solids out with that since its more accurate and put the solids old one on IP. I have a pouch i never put on my arctic genome soldier that ill do maybe this weekend. I also got in the 2 lower pouches for venom snake that were missing. I got me some work to do!

They look like miss colored shotgun shells when I just looked it up but it's weird because I always remembered them being 40mm for his 203 that magically appears during the Harrier fight.

One question though, are the bullets on his side shotgun or regular bullets i just couldnt find a good enough shot and didnt want to go through videos. The head mock up looks great.

yeah, thats what i got, 40mms. shotgun shells seems kinda stupid since he doesnt really use one.

Re: [sdabbs] [scaletta] MGS2: Solid Snake - TAKING 1/2 DEPOSITS (DUE 31/01/16)

Yeah but I mean consider how he probably got one of those SEALs uniforms. The guy that wore it before might have had a shotgun.
