Kotobukiya METAL GEAR SOLID – Metal Gear REX (1/100)
The ultimate weapon from Shadow Moses for your workbench!
Get a true piece of video game history for your shelf! With the Metal Gear REX, Kotobukiya brings the legendary bipedal nuclear tank from Hideo Kojima's masterpiece Metal Gear Solid as a stunning 1/100 scale model kit. The iconic, brutal, and highly mechanical design by Art Director Yoji Shinkawa has been perfectly captured in this kit, down to the smallest hydraulic cylinder.
Whether you're a hardcore gamer from the PlayStation era or simply love extremely detailed mecha kits outside the traditional Gundam universe – this kit is a massive highlight and the undisputed boss for your display case.
Why the Metal Gear REX belongs in your collection:
-
Intimidating Detail: From the massive railgun protruding over its shoulder to the distinctive sensor radome and the powerful leg armor – Kotobukiya has masterfully cast the complex mechanics of the REX in plastic.
-
Full Articulation & Action Features: Thanks to the robust joint structure, the REX can be posed in all its iconic stances. The missile hatches on the knees and back can be opened, allowing you to perfectly position it for the deadly railgun launch.
-
Exclusive Miniature Figures Included: To complete the Shadow Moses diorama, the kit includes unpainted, extremely detailed miniature figures of the legends: Solid Snake (with Stinger missile launcher), Liquid Snake, and the Cyborg Ninja (Gray Fox) – the latter in three versions (standing, in motion, and in the dramatic pose under REX's foot).
-
The Building Experience: The kit uses the proven snap-fit system and can generally be assembled without glue (parts are pre-molded in basic colors).
-
Hobbybase Tip: To recreate the iconic splinter camouflage pattern from the video game and achieve the true, grim Shinkawa look, painting and proper weathering are highly recommended. The included decal sheet will help you perfectly apply the camouflage pattern!
⚠️ IMPORTANT WARNING: This item is a highly detailed model kit for collectors aged 15 and over and not a classic toy. Not suitable for children under 3 years – there is an acute risk of choking due to small parts and sharp components!
