Throughout video game history, the METAL GEAR series has blown away the competition with their storytelling. METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN is the latest instalment in that series. The story takes place in 1984 during the Soviet-Afghan War, when Snake appears in Afghanistan and fights to reclaim his legacy.

And now, a key character in this story, Tretij Rebenok, will be released as an action figure! His gas mask is designed with close attention to small details and the way that the long drooping sleeves of his straightjacket change form freely bring out the creepy mysteriousness that envelops this character. The eyes are barely visible through the lenses but they convey a longing to say something and express the eeriness of this character’s demeanour.
