The Metal Gear Solid characters get the gender bender treatment with these Konami Figumate figures. More pics at Tokyo Hunter. Otakon looks too cute.

Like, who's who? Where's Snake if this was gender bended? XD Sorry confused for now/
(ID #410272) Posted on 2008/12/13 14:57
Yellow = Ocelot Green = Snake Blue = Raiden Brown = Otacon

Cute and........Disturbing....-_-"" But nevertheless, I won't mind buying those. And come to think of it, les enfant terribles has gone mad. I can imagine big boss' cries in the after-life right now.
(ID #410280) Posted on 2008/12/13 15:02
LOL! This is so wrong.. "Loli" redefined.
(ID #410283) Posted on 2008/12/13 15:03
Otacon was always moe. This just reinforces it.

So cute~ but oh so wrong, lol I wonder if they'll do something similar for Haruhi? :D
(ID #410287) Posted on 2008/12/13 15:09
I always wondered why guys get all "moe~" when guys get turned into girls (Kyonko is a strong example), but say all kinds of bad stuff like "so wrong" about girls getting turned into guys. Just saying because I've always enjoyed gender bender of both sexes. Maybe it's just me and girls say bad stuff about guys turned into girls? (highly doubt it, since these figurines get into production)

What I find wrong is that Raiden looks far more baddass than snake
(ID #410337) Posted on 2008/12/13 16:12
I think Otakon and Ocelot works, snake and Raiden doens't work just as well. However I'm thinking that this concepts is just another to target the fans pocket with a "MOE" concept. However I'm buying this concept!!! KEEP IT COMING~

Wait, what? This is real? Didn't think they'd actually make gender bent figures ^^;

So if these are gender benders, does that mean this Raiden figure is really a guy ? Ha, couldn't resist. I hate that girly whiner.
(ID #410359) Posted on 2008/12/13 16:49
Moe Otacon is moe.

It's cute...yet so horribly wrong at the same time.
(ID #410971) Posted on 2008/12/14 08:48
Haha! That's one way to ruin the MGS series for me. Or maybe I have a new found love for the characters? Hmm, decisions, decisions.

Guess its gonna be "Welcome back!!! Sister!!!" from Ocelot this time. And Otacon turning from an Otaku to a Fujoshi made my LOL onto the floor, but still...Cute.
