Metal Gear Solid collectibles

[Frank Jaeger]

It's just too much for me, the price coupled with the scale has made it easy for me

They only have teased a Soldier, if they do more i won't want to spend so much money on the the line and if they don't i won't have a place for Snake in my collection at that scale

it was always going to be a buy of love because it was Solid but at that price i cant justify it

 

[ronri]

Yeah I'm sticking with the standard release. The SOCOM and figma box just don't seem that worth it aside from getting it for the sake of "exclusive". I can live with the available guns, and "Orange" box in this case.

Is that your bedroom, Pliss? Those are some lovely curtains!

I get the feeling they'll do more. There's like 5 Berserk figures out, and 5 more planned.

Thanks Ryan! It's my room. And I hate those curtains

As you can see I barely have room for them there. You see my Koto REX on my night table. I still need the Koto RAY. And, my messy ass game shelf You see the HD collection boxset there.

Does anyone know if GS online shop charges upfront if I preorder with PayPal?

Nope. It charges around two weeks before the item gets shipped out within the month of its release date.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Usually you pay up front for items you pay for with PayPal as Paypal doesn't have a pre-order function

I stand corrected.

[Frank Jaeger]

I just can't see myself getting into $70 6" figures

If they make a large cast it will cost a fortune and I'm really not bothered about the scale to be spending hundreds of pounds that i can be putting towards scales i actually collect

PAK is as smaller scale as i will go

Ok just order snake from Gsc love the extras.

 

[anubis20]

I do have to say the GSC deal is better than this

Solid Snake Figma Figure - Metal Gear Solid Metal Gear Solid 2

Plus shipping too. GSC comes to about $87 shipped.

 

[CryptDemon]

BBTS just put him up for preorder for 90 freaking dollars.

You know... PAK was already getting ridiculously expensive, but this is just insane.

Plus you get the extras the regular doesnt come with them.

I don't care so much about the box, but I do want the SOCOM pistol.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Why do you guys not get import fees?

 

[jcmahler]

Thanks, preordered from GSC. Its expensive, but it's Snake. [emoji41]

 

[anubis20]

Why do you guys not get import fees?

Dont know, but i am sure glad we dont get them after all the stories i hear about the costs

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I just don't get it.

If i order anything from outside of Europe i get charged duty and tax.

I don't understand how they don't charge people in the US as they aren't in the same country as the manufacturers either.

Cuz 'Merica!

It's listed as 6,060 yen on amiami mildly better if you dont care about the exclusives

Yeah. I went with AmiAmi. A gun that may get released again with another figure down the line (MGS2 Raiden and/or MGS1 Snake) and a piece of cardboard I'll never use aren't worth the 3,000 yen.

 

[anubis20]

Also is anyone near me in MD, DC, VA that we can order together and save on shipping? I believe 3 can ship for ¥2000
