September 30, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

With the real name of David, Solid Snake was a former spy, a special ops soldier, and mercenary. Being fluent in six languages and possessing an IQ of 180, Solid Snake was known as “the Man Who Makes the Impossible Possible”. He became a living legend among the military black ops because of his deeds. Solid Snake is the product of the Les Enfants Terribles project which produces clones of the world-renowned soldier Big Boss.

At first, Snake was a Green Beret but then he was later initiated into High-Tech Special Forces Unit FOXHOUND while it was under the command of Big Boss. Snake became a war hero for stopping potential nuclear catastrophe three times by repeatedly disarming and destroying the latest incarnation of Metal Gear.

The Metal Gear Solid Solid Snake Statue features a highly detailed base capturing an action scene based on the Metal Gear Solid series, two head sculpts (Normal and Alternate version), and an authentication card.
