In case you don't know, cause I didn't know. the Hip joint can be tighten by pressing it in together, they work like the Free! Haruka and makoto hip. You should be able to hear a snapping sound after you push it in, they give you the option of loose hip for some poses. The figure is SOLID.
Nice review. I'm a little lost when trying to tell the difference between real and fake versions of this product. The reason I'm getting confused is some people have said this is a fake version but on the other hand I have not seen anyone that has a version of this product with a face to match what's shown on the box. I certainly have not seen much variation of this figure anywhere else on the internet so this must be the real deal.
I wish it would've come with the USP. I mean, he didn't even have access to an assault rifle until the 2nd half of the game. Now I think and hope they make a raiden and give him the plethora of guns he had access too. But nonetheless I still would get this figure because mgsol was my favorite installment
i ordered the figure and i wanted to see what im getting and i wanted to see him in his box and you were the only person who posed him in his box every other reviews didnt
john nguyen So-So. I love P4 but Yu was one of the weaker characters for me. But it also doesn't help that I VASTLY prefer P3 to P4. P3 FES is probably my favourite game.
Can't wait for future review of figma Sinon GGO. *Sinon far right* Nice review for Snake, seems the far shot is perfect but close-up is where the problem.
I wasn't confused at all, and I love the subtle kept you waiting, 10 days until Phantom Pain and this is a figure I will get, actually I won't, the price point was a tax extreme and he did rather lack in accessories, I opted for the revol mini venom snake who not only has the looks of the new snake, but comes with more than enough goodies for snake to pose with, his articulation is great and he's a lot better than the others in the line, his sculpt is based off the artwork for the games so if your a true MGS fan I recommend it, besides someone has to do a decent review of the figure and your the guy I'd love to see do it.
Christopher Arrowood Sadly I'm not a fan of Revoltechs. Also, I'm not the MGS fanboy I once was. Actually I kind of completely lost interest in the series a few years ago.
I think that for the asking price being a decent enough figure doesn't cut it. I even have doubts of calling it "decent". Let's see: loose as hell joints and torso; limbs that can fall off when trying to take advantage of the (admittedly very good) articulation, horrid paintjob (1. the face will forever be one of the best examples of waiting for a review instead of trusting the promo-shots -even if this is applicable to a lot of figures, not at this level- 2. the bodysuit has the wrong color plus the pouches lack shading); and a second face that looks off. And that's talking about the figure: one of the accesories risks the integrity of the toy while they had the kind thought of leaving the iconic socom pistol as a web exclusive. I love MGS and I have my fair share of average or flawed figures...I can deal with that. But it's clear that Figma has done and should do better than this. While I'm no fan of revoltech's tendency to make action figures that only look good in exaggerated poses, their releases of Big Boss & Raiden are much better than this Solid Snake (even with Big Boss' weird PW 2D facesculpt and those very obvious shoulder joints). Not to mention at a fair price as well.
This is not a good figure and not worth the 70+ price tag. a total disappointment/failure(and I'm a huge mgs fan :/) Do yourself a favor and spend your cash at something else(Even the PAK snake seems more solid joint wise and I dislike PAK)
WOW I'M SO UPSET NO GUNDAM REVIEWS!!! 11!1!1!1! OH My goD like wow where the gundam its been 6 months come on gundam how about that gundam Vince huh? gundam review when!?
+Panthera9 Sorry, I was wrong. Having looked around a bit, it seems like Figma have just outright lied about the design of this figure. I haven't seen a single figure where the face even comes close to the promotional photos. Disgraceful. No one should be accepting these things.
We NEED figma Raiden MGS2 ver.
+Mike Gorf
As long as his face is based on the actual game model and not artwork like Snake.
Ah, yes. Long before Valve made it cool, Snake was all about "The Orange Box." XD
darthalucard Nailed it.
He isn't exactly Solid now is he? ho ho ho >_>
***** I approve this message.

Thank you for the in depth review for this figure. Now subscribed in your channel. Keep up your great reviews, bro.

Brandon Roohr Well if it's any consolation the Goodsmile Exclusive version comes with the SOCOM.
+TYPE V3 that is acceptable 😏
The MGS1 Solid Snake outfit is the greatest outfit he wore.
i ordered the figure and i wanted to see what im getting and i wanted to see him in his box and you were the only person who posed him in his box every other reviews didnt
I love the pics at the end!
such a cool figure let down by a weird face
would prob look great on a shelf if you kept some distance, but you shouldn't have to
Is this a knockoff because I have one and his banDana is a little high on yours.
Still a really good toy
Correction you fixed bandana. Apologies
Are you excited for the Yu Narukami Figma? As a Persona 4 fan, I'm absolutely hyped, can't wait to get him and see a review, I love your channel.
john nguyen So-So. I love P4 but Yu was one of the weaker characters for me. But it also doesn't help that I VASTLY prefer P3 to P4. P3 FES is probably my favourite game.
***** Then the Makoto Yuki Figma should have you happy?
For sure. But this is figma we're talking about - could take years before we actually see a release date. So I can't really get too excited about it.
Kept you waiting Huh love this channel for saying that.......
sad that Figma doesnt sell the previews they give
today i got my first gundam kit, the Bandai Hobby MG Gundam Kai Model Kit (1/100 Scale), Astray Red Frame.
so what's next?
Can't wait for future review of figma Sinon GGO. *Sinon far right*
Nice review for Snake, seems the far shot is perfect but close-up is where the problem.
I like snakes first sneaking suit better

***** That really makes me sad to hear
It shouldn't. As a MGS fan you know that the series is just about as silly as Kingdom Hearts.
***** XD have you 0layed ground zeroes yet? Its gotten pretty serious, and sad, it can be light hearted at times but its a thing to be taken seriously
I've got it on both the PS4 & X1 but have no interest in playing it.
What took you so long?
kept you waiting, huh?
I want an mgs3 version on the figure
not trying to correct you or anything but calorie mate naked snake/big boss's favorite, not solid's. love your videos man.
Good catch.

Actually this model is from the art of Yoji shinkawa from MGS2
Hence the complete black gloves.
But most of you guys never do research so yeah..
I want to buy him but. that eyes tho
liked for the possessed look! he he :D
love mgs
I'm a bigger fan of Big Boss anyway
This is not a good figure and not worth the 70+ price tag. a total disappointment/failure(and I'm a huge mgs fan :/) Do yourself a favor and spend your cash at something else(Even the PAK snake seems more solid joint wise and I dislike PAK)
I was thinking of getting this, but I'll pass after watching this review
lmfao omg those eyes
I Lost the cigarettes
+jerad paulson All of them? Damn.
+TYPE V3 yeah
WOW I'M SO UPSET NO GUNDAM REVIEWS!!! 11!1!1!1! OH My goD like wow where the gundam its been 6 months come on gundam how about that gundam Vince huh? gundam review when!?
Jfc chill fam
I like you.
***** you get this a lot.
Andrew Sinsioco lol, I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic and imitating the usual slew of gundam comments I get.
!
That is *definitely* one of the Chinese-made fake models, not a genuine Figma I'm afraid.

+Panthera9 ahaha!
First and great video

Ugh that face >~
