Foxhound Coat Getting Great Reviews!
|
Eager Metal Gear Solid fans received the first Foxhound Coats in late May, and the reviews quickly came flying in! Here's one sample from a happy customer:
 "The color, the shoulder-pads, the way the lapel can be open or closed and look just like Liquid's coat; it's all there. You guys and gals have LITERALLY made that dream of mine a reality!"
- Shinigami, USA
The Foxhound Coat also received some major press coverage from video game super-site Kotaku.com. Their review was very positive, although the price point did seem to take their writer by surprise. He obviously hasn't bought a quality coat before! Here's an excerpt:
"The FOXHOUND Coat replicates the look of the antagonists from Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, notably Liquid Snake. I agree that they've done a beautiful job with this (especially the shoulders) and it does look great open or closed."
- Kotaku.com, May 30, 2009
Press coverage is great, but the AbbyShot Team is not satisfied until we hear that YOU love your new coat! Customer reviews matter most to us, so here's another sample that we enjoyed:
"The quality is fantastic and it fits like a glove! The material is exceptionally comfortable and looks identical to the ones worn by FOXHOUND members Liquid, Ocelot, and Mantis in Metal Gear Solid. I'm very happy with my purchase! I'll be wearing this coat on a day to day basis for years."
- Solidus, USA
See full customer reviews on our AbbyShot Blog, and be sure to check out our current Customer E-mails article (at the end of this newsletter) for Foxhound photos!
Keep those reviews coming, Foxhound customers! If you don't have your own yet, why not join FOXHOUND now?
