Metal Gear Solid Rex Plastic Model Kit from Kotobukiya

    I was always terrible at putting together models.  My brother in law, however, is a beast at it.  He can create these amazingly realistic dioramas that depict scenes from World War 2 and the best I can manage is to glue a lot of pieces to my hands and quit out of frustration.  Patience was never my strong suit.

    That being said, I wouldn't know where to begin with this monstrosity.  This Metal Gear Rex from Kotobukiya stands 9 inches tall when you put it's 600 pieces together.  The pieces are all prepainted too, so it will look a little less like a 3rd grade art project from those of us with less than steady hands.  You even get some little dudes to stomp to death or blow to bits.  This mean looking model will be available in January for $79.99.
