Nice MGS4 tin can

I've found this today, does anyone know where it comes from? The seller was stating it was an italian exclusive item but I really doubt it. Also I'm not even sure it's official(why would Konami make MGS4 cans?

), maybe it's promotional stuff, I really don't know. I'll keep you informed once I receive it.

I found the answer, this can contains Red Bull, and it's an exclusive MGS4 limited can design for Italy only. There are plenty available on ebay italy, the only problem is that the sellers don't want to ship worldwide, but maybe if you contact them they'll ship it in your country, and I'm pretty sure some will be available for sale later on ebay.com. However I won't try to get more from Italy as I know there are many problems between Italy and other countries when it comes to shipping, many losses. To be continued...

Yeah I've got a package coming from Italy with a tracking number, and the tracking number doesn't seem to work (it's been a week). Luckily, it's nothing too expensive should something happen, I believe it's only worth $20. They should've put characters on the cans and people would've tried to collect them all, much like those Final Fantasy ones.

Hellou =p
I can confirm it is an official item. It is/was a bonus for who pre-ordered the Italian version of MGS4 LE (the one having an Old Snake figure too). It isn't a 'real' RedBull though, Italian sellers say like that just to give the idea... on a side i can read:
Produced for: KONAMI DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT, 60437 Frankfurt/Main
I didnt open it of course (even if i'm considering about opening another can i got damaged during the delivery >_<) but who tasted it says it really seems like a RedBull / Burn drink.
I suck in taking pictures, but i just wanted to show some details (attachments).
AND... *promotional message* if you might be interested in it i can purchase a couple more before they're gone to sell/ship them worldwide

Hi and welcome to the forum, it's good to see a new collector on board. I love that design so much! I have it on posters and on the French T-Shirt tin, i'd really like to get my hands on a couple of those cans. PM me if you don't mind shipping to the U.K.

@jonthomas83 & gixo: i really don't mind to ship worldwide, and of course i'd use Ebay to make the transaction more safe ;o
Just a small side note: tomorrow i have to leave for a vacation (going to Rome & Helsinki woot

). hopefully I'll be back in 6 days

Enjoy your holiday mate! Have a good one and good luck with it being your first one and all!
Thanks for agreeing to ship to us, I know i appreciate it! Look forward to you getting back (in one piece! lol). Let me know when you wanna set up the auction. I personally would like two so I can picture them side by side to make up the complete graphic picture that appears on the them.
All the best and thanks again!

lol! I'd like to grab two too, but then I would think the shipping would MAJORLY kill it.
