Right where we belong. 🫡

Last summer, this life size Naked Snake statue went on an adventure from his home at Gameshop Downstairs in San Jose to make a special appearance in MGSCON3's Metal Gear Museum. He had so much fun that he still hasn't taken off his camo leaf decor. 🤭🌿 Our supporters are the best!

Eric Marks, Vice President of Motion Picture Sound Editors, interviews Ludvig Forssell, composer at Kojima Productions 🎼

That time I stole the philosophers legacy

PPS - one half of our social media team has been rolling around on the floor because we also made the brat (legally distinct) shirt

Many have said to me My "Mother of Special Forces" piece would make a great shirt 👀Well, MGSCON has made their artist merch available. If you “do” end up picking up the Mother of Special Forces shirts with my art on it, the design looks quite Hansom on a silver colored shirt 😉

Have you ever wanted a shirt that was nice to you? Hi, I’m Steve Duffy and, together with the R&D Team at MGSCon, we’ve developed a shirt that’ll compliment anyone you’re facing. If you look in the mirror, it’ll even compliment you❗️

In case you missed our merch table at MGSCON3, we've just dropped new and exclusive items onto our merch store you can only find on our website's shop. 🔗 Our artist series merch and more fun surprises are available now!

PS - year 1 and 2 merch is on sale now with no code needed!
