Figumate "Sweet Snake" figures due out from Konami this December - but now snake, otakon, raiden and ocelot are cute girls. Would you have preferred MGS to have a girl as the main character instead? Via Tomopop and sorry to MumMum for deleting his post who posted this a few seconds after me ^^;

Ah it's a trap! I dunno about this...Just because Figumate is always female they ended up gender-swapping to make a series fit? No...no...

It seems that gender bending is a popular trend over at Japan.

Maybe MGS was better with a white-haired dude, but I wouldn't say no to these figures.
(ID #256797) Posted on 2008/08/04 21:53
cute but I would not collect these... ...will they turn Meryl into a man? eww...
(ID #256877) Posted on 2008/08/04 23:33

(ID #256999) Posted on 2008/08/05 02:29
I think it would have been better if they made "cute" versions of the girls in the game instead of all the male characters.
(ID #257037) Posted on 2008/08/05 03:45
Exactly what I was thinking. I'm pretty sure there's 4 girls they could have used though don't ask me to name them (Meryl???)
(ID #258648) Posted on 2008/08/07 00:33

"Would you have preferred MGS to have a girl as the main character instead?" No, the old guy as the Snake is the best.
(ID #257049) Posted on 2008/08/05 04:02
/agree
(ID #258070) Posted on 2008/08/06 09:17
this really creeps me out. I love those characters and for them to do this It makes me sad. Like someone said above, if they were going to do this why not just use the many female characters in the game!? It's not like there was a shortage of them or anything. Also I think seeing cute chibi snake and the others would be fun! why didn't they do the male characters... gender swap... ugh... no thank you.
