Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker Figure Hitting Now?

I've been trying to get my hands on this highly articulated Snake (a.k.a. Big Boss) action figure since it was announced as a summer release. Reports over the last few weeks have been conflicting. Some people reported that their import stores received stock, yet were confronted with a "ships in September" message upon purchase. It would appear that this highly coveted figure is now available. Game Informer readers have been submitting pictures of the figure in its packaging (see below), and are saying that the level of articulation in this figure far exceeds anything they've seen in an action figure before. Unfortunately, all of the stores that had these figures available for purchase, are now out of stock. Good hunting, and please keep us informed if you find a store with these figures in stock.
