When MGS4 shipped earlier this summer, it was a global event where the culmination of Kojima's work was laid bare for the world to witness. Sales for the game were strong but tie-in merchandising has for the most part been kept to a threadbare minimum. Maybe Kojima wouldn't accede to brand dilution or Konami doesn't need the cash. System Service was one company who got to produce MGS4 merchandise however and the company made sure that it was something special.The Metal Gear Solid 4 Dog Tag Straps feature the following personalities: Old Snake, Raiden, Meryl, Johnny, Vamp, and Liquid Ocelot. Each dog tag measures 50mm or 1.96" in length and is made of metal wrapped inside a plastic frame. A strap is tethered to the top of each dog tag for attachment to your cell phone or perhaps your ring finger. The dog tags are triple wrapped in plastic bags and packaged in plastic capsules which are sold randomly in Japan. To make it as easy as pie for collectors to get all six dog tags without having to suffer duplicates, NCS has sorted out the capsules into complete sets at $22.90 each. «Photo Gallery»
