With Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater's release date still effortlessly blending into its surroundings, we've got the next best thing: a glorious bust of Big Boss himself in his iconic pose at the end of Metal Gear Solid 3, showing some respect beside the grave of his mentor, The Boss. It even got its own trailer, which is how you know it's good.

Spotted by Eurogamer, the statue is the product of First4Figures and symbolises Big Boss's "unwavering respect and the complex emotions he carries after a mission filled with betrayal and sacrifice". At a towering 21.6 inches, Big Boss can serve as the centrepiece of your gaming collection, or really any room in the house, if you're committed enough. Only the most devoted soldiers will drop the $479.99 asking price; preorders are open now, and the statue is expected to ship in Q3 2025.
