Funko Pop! Games: Metal Gear – Naked Solid Snake — Quick Recon
Price: $14.99 · Rating: 4.8 (201 ratings)
If you’ve ever staged a one-man infiltration of your bookshelf between New Game+ runs, this is the tiny mercenary you place in the perfect blind spot. Moreover, Funko’s Naked Snake arrives as a pocket-sized salute to Snake Eater—headband, silenced pistol, survival knife, and yes, a codec radio if you squint like you’re decrypting a save file.
Description
Take on a new mission with POP! Naked Snake. Additionally, this skilled soldier proves an invaluable asset to your POP! Games lineup when added to your METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER collection. The vinyl figure stands approximately 4.15 inches tall. However, some spec sheets list it closer to 3.75 inches—call it stealth variance.
Key Specs
- Ideal collectible size: Around 3.75–4.15 inches (9.5–10.5 cm). Therefore, it’s desktop-safe, diorama-friendly, and won’t trip your cat’s pathfinding AI.
- Material: Durable vinyl built to survive casual handling and the occasional boss-phase flick.
- Gift idea: Furthermore, at this price, it’s a solid pickup for Metal Gear fans—no Mother Base budget needed.
- Expandability: Fits perfectly with other Funko Pops. In fact, you can hunt down The Boss to assemble a canon-accurate vignette.
- Brand: Funko—the usual suspect in pop culture raids.
Player Reactions (snippets)
- “Stealth Mode Activated—This Pop’s a Keeper” — Jorge: Praises the detailing (headband, knife, silenced pistol) and notes a box protector included. Perfect for OG fans.
- “Snake. Snake? SNAAAAAAAKE!!!” — Seancito: Calls it “fun sized,” notes codec radio on the chest, and affirms there’s no visible defect — good value for price.
- “Perfect!” — Kevin: Came as advertised, undented, looks great in collection — classic collector endorsement.
Tactical Notes (display & collector tips)
- Display tactic: Place Naked Snake near your monitor’s lower corner as an “if-I-die-I-spawn-rescue” talisman. Works psychologically — speedruns confirm a 0.2% morale boost.
- Protection tip: If you like mint boxes, order a small clear protector. Reviews mention one arriving protected; don’t tempt fate with Postal Combat.
- Diorama finesse: Use moss or model foliage to recreate the jungle floor — a 3.75″ scale fits nicely with other Pops and simple 1:12 props.
- Gift strategy: At $14.99 and nearly five-star consensus, this is the safe “I remembered you liked Snake” present that still looks intentional.
Verdict
For the price, this Funko Pop is a tidy little relic of stealth nostalgia: detailed enough to please fans, small enough to avoid elbowing your other collectibles, and durable enough to survive being passed around at awkward family gatherings where someone inevitably asks, “So what does he do again?” If you collect Metal Gear merch, it’s an easy insert into any shelf infiltration plan.
Final byte: Charming, cheap, and ready to stand guard—just don’t expect Naked Snake to carry your reloads. He’s more of a morale boost than inventory management. SNAAAAAAAKE, assemble your display.
