Someone's going to chime in with the 4 little female MGS4 figures. I'm not going to lie though, I am going to get them.

Heh, yeah those Figumates are the only ones I can think of.

I'm kinda hoping all this MGS merchandise dies down. There's enough stuff as it is. Seriously, I've spent enough money.

But I feel they really need to bring back the McFarlane-ish type figures back. I'd love to have those figures of MGS3 and MGS4 characters. Now how cool would that be?

I wish Medicom made the UDF figures fully poseable. They're a good size with great color and detail, but the lack of poseability really hurts them.

I wish there was a Liquid Ocelot figure. I've even searched for a 1/6 scale head that looks like Ocelot so I could make my own custom figure but no luck.

I hi-jacked this image from A.J.'s thread. (permission please).

Image

This is the ONLY time I saw this figure. When did it came out? I mean, as far as US-releases are concerned. I know the clear Raiden was released at the New York Comic Con and the clear MGS3 Snake was released at San Diego Comic Con... So, how this came about?

I'm not even seeing this in online retail shops and even ebay...

I hope A.J. could share to us where he got his... Thanks!

I've seen this for sale ALOT from the UK. Probably either a game store or a toy show exclusive. It'll probably run ya $40-50 with shipping right now. It's the rarest of all the clear variants I believe, although none are THAT rare.

+1 to what violent said, i think its a toy convention, like the rest of them.

I have every UDF figure that was released, including the olive-drab snake that came with the UK MGS4 limited edition game.

Geesh! So I guess I should ready about $60 to $70 with shipping huh? :cry:

I can't see the image as I'm in work but I'm guessing it's 'Stealth' Solid Snake from MGS2?

If so, all the info on it that I know of can be found at my site:

http://jonathanpthomas.com/shadowmoses/ ... e-stealth/

Gamestation is a Games store here in the U.K., it was exclusive to them and it wasn't a convention special or anything.

I'm in the process of picking one up for a friend in the U.S. but finding one with perfect packaging, i.e. where the plastic isn't falling off the cardboard, is proving to be a difficult task!

Yeah, I think it's the rarest of the UDF's. But saying that, Stealth Raiden was supposed to be a comic-con exclusive but I've seen that a number of times without the comic-con sticker here in the U.K. in our GAME stores. So +1 to what Violent said, none are really REALLY rare.

We'll let me just say that yes its true that the regular figures aren't hard 2 find, and the stealth raiden and stealth naked snake aren't as rare as you think. But the stealth mgs2 snake is pretty danm hard to get. Its only exclusive in the U.K. Even with a buddy over at the U.K busting a mission to find me one in excelent condition is really hard to come by (shout out to jonathan, for being a good friend and help out so much,I got you bro). You can find maybe 1 or 2 of them on the U.K ebay but really overpriced. But all in all its going to be a pretty sweet collection to own.

Yo man, I didn't even realise that was you when I replied to your thread! lol. Seeing your username it makes sense now! Sorry man. Welcome aboard fella, good to have you join us! (I said it before but didn't realise it was you, so hopefully this one's a bit more of an enthusiastic welcome!).

Yeah, it is going to be a quality collection to own, when I fly yours out to you, you'll have completed the set before me! :)

My stealth Naked Snake is on its way from Japan, then I'm down to the regular figures which aren't that rare so I'm good.

I'm chuffed you managed to get online mate, nice one!

So, did I missed it? YOu already sent one out to freechris to here (US). Man, I should have ridden with it... I want that figure and since it's only available abroad (as far as where I'm from) my only chance to get one is from someone who'd help me here or I'll probably try EBAY.UK... I'm somehow a completist with this line. NOT having that one is a big hole to the bunch!

Man I'd love to help you out but I'm having a whole heap of shit happening with the figure I'm trying to get for Chris, I'll never deal with figures again as long as I live. I'll just buy them for me! lol.

At the moment I cannot find a perfect stealth mgs2 snake ANYWHERE!

I'll update here if I come across one for you mate, but that will be my last dealing of figures for anyone else! lol. :)

No worries mate, I can't promise as it's been a nightmare thus far, so if you manage to acquire one let me know. I'll keep you updated. Meanwhile, if you see one that you don't mind shelling out for, don't hold back cos I'm finding it harder to find these bad boys in stock.
