Metal Gear Solid 4: Some Raiden Love’n
I’ll admit it, I’m the world’s lamest gamer. I pretty much lost interest in Metal Gear Solid 2 when I got to the fat guy on rollerblades with bombs strapped to him boss, so I never did get to all the stuff with Raiden and ultra confusing plot nor did I play the last game. However, elements in Guns of the Patriots like the cyborg/ninja Raiden have started to peak some interest in the series again.
Check out this Raiden figure who is a perfect compliment to the previously reported MGS 4: Solid Snake figure by Medicom.
Apparently Raiden looks pale because his blood has been replaced by some white artificial blood. Poor bastard. At least the upswing is that he’s a hyper-cool ninja now so that’s got to count for something. Cyborg Ninja (below) was my favorite Metal Gear Solid character, so it’s cool to see he’s sort of returning in some form.

Since the Cyborg Ninja is your favorite character you really should go back and play thru Metal Gear Solid 2. The character never really left the series because it’s in that game as well. Plus, you get an awesome surprise for Raiden near the end of the game that you would love.

Minjas are cool. (as my 4 year old daughter would say) I like the the figures, they are both pretty sweet. Some of my favorite figures are the ones that have some sort of future combat team feel to them.
