Has anyone checked their HT Naked Snake lately? Especially around the shoulders where the padded suit meets the plastic armor. Go ahead and slide away the stabo harness and check the shoulders closely...

Lol had mine deteriorating a year ago... huhu! Even the white parts on the sneaking suit of the boss is starting to get yellowish. must be because of the humid weather here

My Snake is mostly fine but I discovered this morning that the adhesive used on the straps for the boot knife sheath is melting away. Apparently those straps are essentially leather colored duct tape and now that area is a sticky mess. Its proving to be a real pain to clean up and now I have to find a decent replacement for those straps. I'll probably just use cloth or real leather or something.

Same(the boss), but mine happened a while back...
.I consider it the worst HT I ever had.
Mine are still fine and got them at release. must be the areas you guys live in as far as temp/humidity. I will say though that i had a buckle snap on the boss and i replaced the whole suit due to not being able to source a buckle.

Mine are still good also. Some very slight yellowing on her white suit by the zipper. No major deterioration and I live in AZ, also have had these two a long while now. I own a lot of 1/6th figures, these two are still some of my favorites.

Here's mine. There are some weird spots on the suit if inspected closely but the most concerning is the plastic body armor/stabo harness on the shoulders that by design, makes contact with the suit which results in tear. You can only notice this if you peel back the harness and body armor thus it's possible some of you might not notice the damage until you inspect it yourself.

It's alright, I've never had any love for the MGS3 HT line anyway. It's funny because I don't touch or pose my figures and they're kept in a glass cabinet. Just remember to peel away that armor and harness to check for damage!

Nice one. What ever happened to the Shinkawa version Raiden statue?
You think it's cancelled since he's not in Konami anymore?

Nah, I mean it might be. It was announced in 2014. A game mode Snake and Raiden and a Yoji Shinkawa version Snake and Raiden by union creative.
I don't think we got either
so, i just found a place by accident that has the idroid phone cases in stock for retail. i just ordered one and i will let you guys know if its legit. first time orders get a 10% off coupon. i just got one for $76. pm me if interested i guess to find out where. i dont know how many they have and i dont want them bought up. theyre going for way too much money on ebay right now.
oh, btw, the union creative statue youre looking for is the one im talking about and bbts and other retailers have it up for preorder.

Gecco still seem to be producing figures so maybe hopefully somehow we'll get it (please).
Can't get enough Shinkawa stuff. Surprised we haven't got more based on his art.
Like these beautiful statues. Perfect representations these are (Ill never stop banging on about them till they're mine!)
