No PAKS in sight, not even Ocelot or Kid Mantis? I hope Square Enix manages to keep doing MGS stuff
 
New to MGS collecting and I'm a bit confused concerning the prices of some of these new PAKs...I understand that Quiet is being scalped with an artificial scarcity being created but why are the preorders for sneaking suit Big Boss and Ocelot so damn expensive? I mean isn't pre-ordering supposed to net you the best price? For PAK figures these are insane MSRPs...

I imagine this has to do with the game still being new and fresh but still, I don't remember PAK preorders ever being so pricey.
 
mgs ones have been around $100 for a while now, its the new norm. if you want cheaper prices you have to order straight from japan.

The going rate for Ocelot seems to be $140 USD and that's from Japan. That is a lot for a pre-order on a PAK-quality figure, imho. Others are reasonably priced, like Skull Face, presumably because they are less popular but retail shouldn't be this brutal.
 
Any of you guys own the 1:1 Premium arm? Really struggling to drop 400 queens English on it and wondered if the quality was good enough to justify it.
 
Anyone who has the the new Sneaking Suit Venom Snake... can you remove the wire out of the bottom of the radio, or is it glued in?
 
That Metal Gear Rex D is just adorable, I can't wait.

You're not wrong, that was the reaction of most people to PAK prices.

What are those books in the second picture?

I think it's glued in.

Thinking of getting one solely for display purpose....
 
For that price... I'd try to pick up a T-800 Endo arm, instead.....................

All the wires are glued in (as mine has tiny glue stain on the top2 wires coming out from it).
Another shot, they look good together. No DD needed.

Re-uploaded it, dunno why it got resized with the sideshow upload.

Thanks! I'll throw a dab of glue on mine then.
