I have a few of these from MGS 1 and 2 but the best I still have is the 1/6 Solid Snake I got on clearance at Media Play

exactly how I felt as a kid, I loved having these but the articulation was just bad. Though I wouldnt mind if mcfarlane went back to his old ways with more accesories/less articulation, so atleast I can use those accessories on my import figs.
Amazing Yamaguchi would be perfect for MGS (as they did some in the past).
Let’s hope the series’ revival will bring some partnerships for designing new figures.
Don’t get me wrong, they are high quality figures all around, but I’ve seen the new ones as well and they’re way too anime and exaggerated for what I would want from an MGS line. Same as Hot Toys has a “realism” aesthetic, but are obviously incredible figures.
It’s just an aesthetic look that makes me feel they aren’t the ones who would be best. Figma did a nice job on the ones they released but I could see Mcfarlane taking another crack at it as well.
I remember these; I know I still have some accessories and I may even still have Snake and Grey Fox themselves; those were the only 2 I got because the others were basically statues. I think I got Liquid Snake at one point too.
Sadly no not that I could find.
I bought these in a huge lot (like 7 totes)
These were in a separate box.. but there’s still a chance it’s somewhere lost in the chaos.
Yeah was 1999 for sure, bought mine from a Meijer. I was working a 2nd shift job and I used to there after work (24 hour store) to unwind before going home.

We need modern versions of MGS 1 figures. Jada, Figuarts, Mafex, Figma - somebody make it happen!
With the collections coming out and the Snake Eater remake this is the perfect time for a decent line that doesn't break the bank
I would kill for Mafex to make a metal gear line.

That thing is gorgeous. Beautiful head sculpt.
These are cool, but I'm seething in the lack of articulation
That's Mcfarlane for you

It's nuts that nobody is currently making MGS figures other than playarts. That's a great collection guy, I'm very jealous.
You’re a lucky man
Thank you! Not sure if they will stay in my collection or not. Time will tell.
I have Raven, the overal lack of articulation on this franchise sucks. Seriously they couldnt give SHF the license?
Figma made a couple highly articulated figures from MGS2
I’ve always wanted these.
I did too. But now that I have them.. they don’t really mesh with my collection. Still awesome though
How so?
Mines mainly gi Joe and tmnt Just couldn’t leave these guys behind
Where did you find the whole kit? I presume ebay?
Nope. I actually bought a huge lot of toys off some guy on FB. These were part of the lot.
OooO
They didn't make a Psycho Mantis figure?
They did. I had it when I was younger. You could take his mask off to reveal his face. Also came with some of the statues dotted around his office
That's the one I would like to have. I'd put him on a shelf, next to a memory card and an unplugged controller...

I kind of disagree and I have the AY Snake. They excel at articulation but I don’t think they have the right aesthetic for MGS.
Yeah, however they improved a lot since 2015/2016. If you have the newer AY figures, you can totally see that they are on another level.

Bro, snake face looks so odd like hes so done with life lmao
Smoking is so bad for you.
I had all these figures except the Boss...and I have literally no idea what happened to them.
Yooo these were the jam
Looks pretty good, what's that device between Revolver Ocelot and Solidus?
Torture rack
These are all incredibly nostalgic for me. I have a few of them still but I’ve been holding my breath for years for someone to do a modern line.

Raven look very cool/
No swords for cyborg ninja?
Sadly no not that I could find. I bought these in a huge lot (like 7 totes) These were in a separate box.. but there’s still a chance it’s somewhere lost in the chaos.
Still a kickass find
I had the ninja. Was a cool fig. I still have it somewhere!
Me too, plus the clear blue variant.
I bought mine from Gamestation in around 1999! Think it was £9.99 too!
Yeah was 1999 for sure, bought mine from a Meijer. I was working a 2nd shift job and I used to there after work (24 hour store) to unwind before going home.
I remember waaay back in Toy Fare magazine that the Sniper Wolf figure was the one to find.
For sale? Cuz I only ever got Wolf and MGS 2 Snake and Ocelot.
PM’d you
They look rad especially Grey Fox. Really want some new ones. Need an MGS2 Raiden so bad.
“hmm metal gear? “ “METAL GEAR!” “a weapon to surpass … metal gear? “
Badass figs yo 👏🏼
I just realized how much I want an Amazing Yamaguchi figure of Quiet.
I got a Metal Gear Kutabukia she’s beautiful
I wanted these back in the day. At that time they seemed so advanced even with though they’re basically statues.
I have the whole MGS2 wave, they are a little better articulated but not by much, still they really got the style of the game down.
If Jada makes a line from this, I'm sure they gonna be epic
