Revoltech Yamaguchi #131: Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker Snake Action Figure

This is hands down one of the best metal gear solid action figures ever produced. I own a lot of the play arts Kai figures, and they're cool but are really limited when it comes to articulation and posability. Also, I prefer the way these look in comparison. The play arts figures are more realistic looking, but these are more faithful to the artwork of metal gear solid. It also comes with tons of accessories and extra parts. Plus, the eyes are posable too! You can move the eyes! If you're a fan of the games, and want a truly amazing figure that will meet and surpass all of your articulation and posability expectations then I would definitely recommend these. This figure got me hooked and I've already ordered all of the metal gear solid figures in the revoltech line because of it.

I've owned this figure for over a month now and I gotta say I still love it every time I go into my room. The poses that are possible with this figure are pretty endless... Every limb can be moved freely with ease which makes for great action poses. It does have a different type of "Artstyle" that may put some people off but honestly I was completely fine with the way it looks... If you're looking for something that's alittle more true to the MGS artstyle then you may like the Play Arts Kai figure line of Metal Gear. The Box, Weapons and "!" "Zzz" are great, every week I'm changing the pose with something new. As someone who played every Metal Gear game multiple times. I love this thing to death... Cant wait till Revoltech Raiden comes out.

Wasn't too thrilled about this one to be honest. The face isn't entirely Big Boss's. The hands hold the gun loosely and I try not to repose the figure because of this. In terms of the accessories, there's plenty and the cardboard box accessory is quite cool. The rest of the figure is very detailed and the sneaking suit makes him look awesome. My two main problems are the face and the loose hands.

Best metal gear said figure ever!!! Articulation is fantastic detail is stylized and great and accessories are worth the price. If you Like metal gear solid it isnt a question

Areas of Review: Sculpt Head and Body sculpt Articulation Paint Apps Packaging Accessories Overall grade Head and face sculpt: Snake resembles his usual likeness but lacks the gritty features of recent Metal Gear games thanks to his less detailed anime-art style. Although still a quality sculpt, his features are softer with less shadowing and detail. His head has 3 individual parts- 4 if you count the head band strands that snap on in the back. The top hair piece, back of mullet hair piece and face all connect with small Revoltech joints. His eye-ball is moveable (a nice touch) allowing for some great facial expressions but is difficult to move because of its position in the socket and small size. His head sits on a ball and socket joint atop his neck. All in all a nice sculpt. Skin and hair colors are done well. The strands of his head band pop into back of his head on a peg and can be rotated around at point of insertion but peg is weak- mine broke off with only one use. Neck piece has ball joint on both ends. Body Sculpt: A good sculpt with high attention detail. Suit color, texture and sculpt of cloth/material folds are well done. Straps are individually sculpted around waist and groin just like video game suit. Articulation: If you are new to revoltech figures and articulation, it may take some getting used to. The figures are built to look good in stationary poses but in my opinion not sturdy enough to be frequently posed or played with. The limbs and jointed sections of body will come out of there sockets often. Also the design and angles of the cuts in these joints makes natural movement awkward and lends to the frequency of the figure coming apart (frustrating). The ratchet-style ball peg joints used are sturdy and don't break easy but they just aren't anchored well enough into body. Snake does have a double ball and socket neck joint, ball jointed upper torso and ball jointed abdominal crunch, ball jointed shoulders, elbows, knees, wrists and ankles. His shoulders are not the usual and more practical ball joint seen in marvel legends figures- they sit on top of his collar bone and swivel left and right more than forward/backward. His knee pads also have peg and swivel movement. Paint: gloss and matte black combinations with grey washes and green on sculpted straps. Quality paint with very little errors. Captures likeness and detail nicely. Package: Box has good window view of figure inside. Pictures of iconic poses on back. Yamaguchi brand and Snake and Metal Gear logos. Accessories: The most bang for your buck! More accessories than 95% of figures out there. Open, fist, gun trigger and cigarette hands for each left and right plus climbing accessory hands. Iconic Pistol with silencer, M16, stun knife, red and blue expression exclamation points, Snoring Zzzz's, and classic cardboard box with anniversary graphics. Box must be folded, cut and put together. Overall: A good addition to any figure enthusiasts collection or even just a fan of the series. Will look good on shelf solo or with other figures. Style and accessories score high but articulation and durability keep this figure from being stellar. B+

This is an awesome figurine! Especially for fans of the game. Super pose able! And comes with an empty box! Revoltech make some of my favorite figures from movies and games. They never disappoint and always come with many detailed extras.

The joints are easy to fall off also the head and the action figure is fragile over all which sucks!

Simply an amazing figure with mind blowing articulation . Very happy to have this guy in my collection .Its simply well made and unique ,excellent paint and sculpt .

少し古い商品ながら、やっぱりほしくて購入。 他のレビューにもあるように顔のペイントが今一つなので、リペイントは必須といったところ。 でも眼球が外れるおかげで、素人でもお手軽簡単にリペイントすることができました。 ガンダムマーカーの消しペンで口髭と下まぶたのペイントをはがして、 髭をモールドを参考に色を載せるだけでも全然化けました。 手前みそながら渋い声が聞こえてきそう。 また、右足が左足に比べて少し短いようで、直立させるとやや不自然。 ここは股関節と膝の接続を伸ばすなどして調整してやるといい感じになりました。 あと、バンダナの紐パーツを刺す穴が小さいので 1.5mmのピンバイスで貫通するまで穴を広げてやるとピンが折れ難くなって良いと思います。 可動は素晴らしく自然な腕組みができるぐらい。 これは間違いなく傑作ですね。

Cuidado, es un producto extremadamente frágil. Con el vendedor no tuve el menor inconveniente, el pedido llego rápido y bien desde Japón a México. El vendedor se merevmce 5 estrellas. Pero el juguete es el más fragil que he comprado hasta el momento y tengo bastantes.

塗装、装備品は原作に忠実です。 しかし、他者の方が述べられているように、個体差が激しいかと思われます。私のは両手首が緩く、背中に金色の塗装が擦れていました。 いつも通り良く動き、良い塗装なのですが、個体差を考えて3としました。

a good quality display item, but has weird articulation the arms only go up and down on a fixed ball joint (most of the other articulation is the same including his legs also has a bendable chest); you can rotate the arms other directions but there not suppose to go that way as well as the head is in 2 seprate peices and the neck is super long so rotating the head is somewhat of a difficult task, but overall a good item has about 6 interchangable hands comes with a pistol a m16 and a little knife- like stun baton and alot of little stands and a tiny cardboard box requires some assembly but overall impressed, i wouldn't recomend this if your intention is to play with it but in all reguards is a well done display item.

こんなに楽しめる スネーク 最高でした😃 写メを撮る時 色んなポーズが可能で 毎日楽しんでます 値段も安かったのでなお😌🌸💕です
