OMG Toys September ‘08

9/30/2008

Some new possessions to burn your hard-earned money on are being released at the end of this month.  Here they are in all of their glory:

  • Metis 1/7 PVC Figure
  • $74.90
  • Orchid Seed makes some damn decent figures, but they do charge accordingly.  Metis first appeared in the highly anticipated Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES.  This was the last figure made for the series.  If you are interested in purchasing it, get it before it’s gone.
  • Metal Gear Solid 4 T-Shirt
  • $49.90
  • The official Metal Gear Solid 4 T-Shirts are nowhere near as cool as the ones designed by Uniqlo.  For some reason they are also much more expensive…  At least they are more readily available to those of us in the West.  Oh yea, it’s also available in white.  Unfortunately, only size L is in stock for both colors.
  • Knights in the Nightmare Perfect Audio Collection
  • $29.90
  • Sting’s Dept. Heaven series is great at creating cohesion between art, music and story.  The newest volume in the series is a bit darker, yet hopeful.  The music seems to reflect that sentiment.  To get a better feeling for it, you can listen to the BGM here.

I’m really not too crazy about the MGS4 shirt, but sadly I wasn’t able to get a Uniqlo one.  I assume most of us are in the same boat.  Why are these things only ever available in large?  [Insert typical fat-gamer joke]

I think I may start scouring the internet for a download of the Knights in the Nightmare OST.  If anyone finds it before me let me know!  Man I cannot wait for this game…

      That Metis figure… it must be mine.

      But it’s so damn hard spending your money on something when you’re trying to save up for a new TV. :/

      Sorry to tempt you Jink… What kinda TV are you getting? I still have a tube TV which really looks like crap with my PS3.
      Maybe in a couple years I’ll break down and get an LCD or something.

      I wanted that Metis figure, but I settled for a Mitsuru one instead. and man, that’s kinda pricey for a shirt, I don’t know if I love Metal Gear that much to spend $50 on 1 shirt… especially on a shirt that will end up way too big for me.

      @Roy: Currently I have an old Sony tube TV, and the picture isn’t all that bad actually, but I just want to make the switch to an LCD HDTV for my PS3 and 360. They aren’t that expensive anymore as they used to be, but it’s so hard trying to choose the right one. Although it will most likely either be a Samsung or Sony… maybe a Sharp Aquos.

      @Kabling: I think I would rather have the Mitsuru figure as well, shes way cooler than Metis IMO. The shirt is insane, but there may be some fat rich guy who wants one XD
      @Jink: I am basically in the same boat, but haven’t really started the process yet. Don’t have the money, and may be moving out soon too… Let me know what kind of TV you buy!
