Looks fine if you connect the head properly and pose the eyes. Face paint isn't even the biggest problem with him, it's the loose torso/waist joints and shoulder configuration

You're missing the most important criteria, how do the asses compare?
>>
>>5847176
Is this a bootleg?

I don't think either of them look good enough to justify a purchase.
>>
>>5847176
lel that dio in the background just chilling with his stand
>>
>>5847145
If you're going to get just one then I'd go with this snek to be honest. His face looks the best, he has the funnest accessories, and he just poses great.

That being said I don't have the other two to compare. I will be getting the Figma soon, though.
>>
>>5847139
Both of them look like shit desu but at least the figma is from a good game.

>Even the Gurlukovich soldier looks better than any other Snake figure released

Also, why didn't they do MGS2 Raiden instead of pic related anyway? He would have came out better than Snake.
>>
I have all three of them, for what it's worth. The Vulcanlog Venom Snake is by far the best of them, but if it's between Solid and BB, I'd go with Solid.

Vulcanlog Snake is great and all, but I'm dismayed to see all the disrespect for this little guy. Yeah, the facesculpt ain't perfect, but neither is the Vulcanlog's, and it's still a super fun and really excellent figure.
>>
>>5848168
I'm assuming because the Gurlukovich soldier is an excuse to make a bunch of extra accessories for Snake, as well as someone for him to choke out/drag/etc.

Or maybe I'm just weird. My first instinct with Snake was to make him grab all my other toys from behind.
>>
>>5848168
>>MGS2 Raiden
Didn't Raiden get a decent reception by the Japs too? I know he was loathed in the US initially, but after MGR I kinda figured his popularity had improved overall.

I don't even think this is a very good figure to be honest with you. The face somehow failed to nail Snake's look for me...something just looks off. More like a cosplayer playing BB than the man himself. The Boss has the same problem. Possibly because they based it off the 3DS character models, which changed their looks somewhat.

Anyway, I'm sick of the Sneaking Suit. I will forever be disappointed that Hot Toys didn't do the fatigues. And yes, I know, InFlames did it, but that one just sorta looks shit all around. Its only redeeming quality is that it came with the croc cap.

I agree, but I still think it works okay as a stylized Snake. It actually improves the likeness a TON if you simply take a bit of (slightly) lighter brown paint and give his hair and beard a touchup. The overly dark hair is a big part of what makes him look...well, not like himself IMO.

And yeah, it's still a great figure. I actually play with and pose it more often than my Vulcanlog.
>>
>>5848216
Seconding this one

You're playing a 50/50 lottery with the face from what I understand, I have him though, and while he's not the most posable, it's the best representation of BB

If you want a highly posable and good looking MGS figure though go with this one >>5847145
>>
>>5848158
Nahhh Peace Walker was fun, the only bad Metal Gear games are MGSV and the non-canon ones
>>
>>5847196
poster could have fixed Snakes eyes easy by using the tool.
>>
>>5847191
>connect the head properly and pose the eyes
Those 2 aren't the things that ruins the Figma snake for people.
>>
>>5848346
>MGSV
>bad

From a story telling perspective, yes. It's shit
But it has the best stealth gameplay of all the MGS games.

And really, if I want a good story, I'll go watch a fucking movie. If I'm playing a game, it needs to be good and have immersive gameplay.

figma snek looks fine, dunno what all the fuss is about
>>
>>5848613
We didn't exactly get what we were sold on, and the articulation is kinda fucky. Add the fact that he was expensive af and people get pissed.
>>
>>5848617
the only real flaw is the beard, other than that there's not a huge difference. my snake looks close to the first pic if you pose and light him properly
>>
>>5848617
Breaking news: professionnal pics look better than amateur ones.
>>
>>5848662
I think it's more the fact that the color palate completely changed, the wash looks really crappy, and the face is really poorly painted, but whatever
>>
>tfw no decent MGS1 solid snake figure

PAK a shit and too expensive.
Revolmini a shit and too small.
>>
>>5848168
is the gurlukovich soldier out already? are there any other pics besides the ones from events and promotional pic? because those showed a much better snake too.

> best Naked Snake would be one with a barret like in the promotional art for Peace Walker but there is no full costume of him like that and even if there was they would never make a figure of it
> best Venom Snake is Olive Drabs without the cape (and maybe with a gas mask) but the cape of the Olive Drabs figures are not removable

> apparently there will be no more MGS actionfigures except for Hot Toys which are too big

: [

I think about getting Naked Snake Jungle Fatigue PAK.
>>
>>5848859
That's because you have low standards, my friend.
>>
>>5848846
>Having to hide half the figure in the dark so it looks okay
>>
>>5849185
looks better than those ugly revos either way
>>
The way figma Snake looks is not the issue, his joints are.

That waist joint, practically a bobble head. And you can't really take it apart to fix it due to the way they put that figma together. Not sure if is the same for all of them or just some of them but this figma obviously missed a few inspections leading up to it's release because they knew people will buy this shit no matter what.

Is that the Medicom RAH? If so, it's a decent figure, and I actually think it has the best Big Boss likeness of all, but when you get it into the light you can see that the sculpt is extremely simple and almost cartoony. It's not a bad thing per se, but it's not everyone's cup of tea.

>>5851812
i'm still waiting for konami to fuck us over and let max factory make a figma of her.
and i wouldn't mind getting her

>>5849442
you have to let either the floor or nail polish to drip inside or try to use a thin brush to coat it, but yeah, it is hard to reinforce it, the fact that you can't reach all the ball peg makes it really hard to last.
the one joint that really fucked me over though was the one on his right thigh, it was so loose that the figure usually fall over because of it, but i finally caved in and decided to take it off so i can reinforce it, gladly it worked perfectly and i learned how the leg was constructed.
>>
>>5848670
No, it's exactly the same just photographied differently.
>>
>>5848701

17th is the estimated payment day? Awesome, I can go get Overwatch, then.

>>
>>5852107
It's not exactly the same at all, the beard looks nothing like the promotional shots. It's common sense that the mass-produced version isn't going to be exactly on par with the original promotional figure, and it's not like that's only true for Figma Snake either
>>
>>5853214
Yes, it is exactly the same. Because you're so bad at taking pics of your toys doesn't mean everyone is. A good toy photographer can make toys look way better than they really are.
>>
>>5849138
the Jungle Fatigue PAK is what I went with too, but I keep him in the box because it looks nice with my MGS collection, so i can't speak for posability. Looks great though.
>>
QC issues aside, the figma is the best quality Snake we've ever gotten. Which pisses me off because the MGS2 design is my least favorite.

you could've simply said it's the only good option in its' scale.

>>5848179
has here been any news on a hot toys venom snake? I remember they showed they have the license but havent seen anything since.
>>
how has nobody brought up this beauty yet
>>
>>5853720
Nice argument. Now you're double wrong.
>>
>>5853842
It's funny how there's not a single Solid Snake figure with at least a half decent face sculpt (aside from figma but that's undermined by overly simple paint job).
>>
how do people continuously fail to realise that revomini snake is the best we'll get. It may not be in scale but it's one of the best snake designs and is probably the best looking despite being smaller scale
>>
>>5855643
cause its a fuckin mini fig
>>
>>5847139

And just like that every naysayer of Bandai's print faces were btfo.
>>
>>5855643

Still not good enough to swallow the problems inherent with revo.

Jesus christ, why'd they have to ruin it so hard?
>>
>>5855933
It's clearly the same. Learn about focal lenghts, angles, lights and shadows.

any word on a reissue/rerelease on the figma? i missed it the first time.
>>
>>5857559
Learn about paint, you fucking moron

>>
>>5859263
the hyperbole is astounding when it comes to fagma snake. a bootleg is not going come close to the quality of a legit figma, qc issues or not. there is literally nothing wrong with the figure and it's the only legit option for a proper snake out there
>>
>>5859284
i really like mine, but i have nothing else at that scale, and finding accessories (extra guns) for him is impossible.
