Is there anything this guy can't do? The custom Kojima toy was a gift from his friends at Square Enix, who sent him a tiny plastic likeness made by Play Arts. You can see the original figure below, but Kojima took it to the next level when he attached his head to a Solid Snake figure (above).

Good to see there's still some camaraderie and good humor in the game industry.

He should be a playable character in Rising or any upcoming Metal Gear Solid series.

I love seeing these cool things but it saddened me a bit to know we will most likely never get our hands on them

Who needs the Smithsonian when you can become an action figure. Hysterical...and well deserved.
by shooterboy23 Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 08:06 PM

I'm a huge fan of Hideo, love his work to death....but I gotta admit he's a little full of himself.

Also the Raiden figure is up top and the Solid Snake figure is on the bottom.

I'd love a collaboration between Kojima and SE.
by GunslingerD7 Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 08:06 PM

Just saw this on Tumblr lol. I wish I had a cyborg ninja action figure of myself too. I'd buy this figure in a heartbeat.

I bet he can't eat a spoonful of cinnamon without coughing it up.
by Joseph Cassou Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 08:21 PM

You know you've really made it in life when they make an action figure of you. The man couldn't deserve it more.

At what point will we switch over from Chuck Norris jokes (which haven't been funny since the 5th grade) to Hideo Kojima jokes?
