Faintly...
>>5805978
Is that a figma? I assume due to the stand.
>>5805978
her vagina yiffs
>>5805982
Yes.
>>5805978
So this thing is literally just a company mascot with no connection to deathstranding?
> Tethered with the caption, “I’ll keep coming,” little else was shared about the picture other than the fact Producer Ken-Ichiro Imaizumi noted it isn’t a screenshot pulled from the studio’s mysterious PS4 exclusive.
>>5805978
why does kojima have such a hard on for norman reedus, he is not a good actor
>>5806098
It's the hair. Look at his hair, then look at Snake. Now back to his hair. Now Snake. Now you are thinking about the lyrics to "What does the fox say".
>>5806087
There's no way to know for sure but considering they're having 3 different figures made by 3 different companies, i'd say it's a safe bet he's the MC (or at least from) Death Stranding
Here's the 1000toys 1/6 figure
>>5806098
Most famous actor he can get with his reputation of "gook who makes video games"
>>5806098
Kojima is a /tv/fag.
I'm pretty sure he enjoys movies more than vidya.
>>5806107
This is literally a fact, thankfully it usually doesn't mean he'd rather direct movies than videogames (as far as i can tell) than it does that he wants to bring design sensibilities/style from film/tv to vidya
... and here are the Nendoroid prototypes.
>>5805978
STRANDING
>>5806122
>thankfully it usually doesn't mean he'd rather direct movies than videogames
He really, really does. He only makes video games because he hopped on early enough to get his name known.
>>5806122
Yeah I don't know, if he had connections in Hollywood I think he'd take his chances.
>>5806125
HERE
>>5806131
>>5806149
Nah, Jap film production is shit at the kind of high-concept scifi, special effects heavy stuff he likes to make (and just shit in general). He gets the best of both worlds where he is now and enjoys/is very good at designing vidya
>>5806180
>(and just shit in general)
>nip cinema
>shit
Uh oh! We got a philistine over here!
>>5806098
In that zombie show he's got that grungy back-water American thing going on yet hides a surprising level of competence.
Also, sometimes he looks like a grungy Keanu.
>>5806105
uhhhh
>>5806191
I meant modern japanese cinema
>>5805978
Space-Siegmeyer
There's going to be a model kit too. I'm going to assume Kotobukiya will make them, leaving Kaiyodo the only one left to dry if that was the case.
>>5805978
inb4 meme toy.
Better preorder it before it goes out of production and starts going for crazy prices.
>>5806457
so, Figma, 12 inch, Nendoroid, multiple nendoroid Petits, and a model kit?
I love Kojima, but this is a lot of confidence in a brand new IP
>>5806677
And a statue figure too.
>>5806677
People are giving a shit simply because it's a new Kojima IP outside of Konami, along with Konami just using Metal Gear as pachinko bait.
The fact that he didn't make a kickstarter out of it helps too.
>>5806743
Wait till it turns out you have to buy a 30 dollar demo prequel game to get the figma because it's only available as a bundle pack.
>>5806777
The Ground Zeroes/Phantom Pain split was forced on him by Konami.
Even if the articulation sucks dick the design itself is totally jiving with me so i'll probably buy it. We don't get action figures with this type of armor often.
>>5806781
Ok then. Figma and video games have some dark past so I get bad feelings at times.
>>5806098
Norman got his start in a del torro movie. Hideo is friends with del torro, and like the walking dead.
>>5806789
at least they aren't packing Figmas in with terrible Japanese language only PSP games anymore
>>5806803
But the Vita is just an updated PSP
That armor isn't even cool.
>>5805978
>Company that has produced literally nothing
>Here's a fucking toy of our mascot
Why should I care, Kojima?
>>5806909
You don't, and that's cool.
See you back here in a couple of months crying about not buying it when you could and all the evil fucks who did care and bought the figure before the game went to level awesome and prices skyrocketed.
>>5806919
>See you back here in a couple of months crying about not buying it when you could and all the evil fucks who did care and bought the figure before the game went to level awesome and prices skyrocketed.
No, you won't. Nice try though.
>>5806919
Actually... Thanks for giving me the idea to scalp the shit out of these.
>>5806924
enjoy the extra 20$ it will take you half a year to get.
>>5806172
I REALIZE
>>5806104
even if it isnt then why not buy it just for the design?
isnt that what most collectors do anyways.
>>5806104
But that doesn't make sense, Deaty Stranding is about a naked Reedus with a baby on a beach full of dead sea animals. What does a weird space marine knock off have to do with that?
>>5807106
Weren't there a bunch of guys descending from the sky? They came from space. Makes total sense.
>>5807106
>the one trailer has shown feetus and reedus
>therefore thats the only thing that would be in the game
you are an idiot
>>5806122
Those are sexy
>>5806104
Nah, apparently that's just the company mascot. Kojima wanted something to symbolize "exploring new frontiers" hence the astronaut. For all we know, Death Stranding is a victim's recount of being roofied.
>>5806677
It's working so far. People are going bananas over it.
Sweet. I can pretend that it's a modern vashta nerada, assuming it comes with an alternate head that shows the skull inside the helmet.
>>5806677
Well I mean...it's just a company mascot, so there's really nothing to it. There's not going to be more to like about it when it isn't brand new, so it's like now or never probably while people are excited that Kojima and Shinkawa have their own independent company.
>>5813857
back to /who/ you go
>>5813888
I'm not even a whofag. I just like the 50s b-movie esthetic of the vashta nerada, you fucking fag
New mascot intro for anyone that cares

> This is confirmed to literally just be a logo and not a character
Dropped pretty hard.
>>5817060
do you still believe anything he says about the game pre-release?
>>5817691
The ruse cruise is highly overrated my friend.
>>5806806
To be fair, I don't think a PS4 port of one of the most well-received Vita exclusives is really on the same level as the trashy licensed shovelware many Figmas were bundled with in the past. I mean, look at the games Saber Lily or Chouyuusha Haruhi were bundled with.
>>5817695
its not the ruse cruise.
its the lies im talking about
>>5817691
>implying the "ruse" is not going to be disgustingly dissapointing
>>5818037
look at the post above you.
>>5806087

As will I.
>>5805983

Apparently the dog tags he's wearing have mathematical formulae about time travel. So there's that.
>>5819305
Yee, ain't it about black holes and shit?
