In the GDC 2013 trailer for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, we got a look at a child version of, supposedly, Psycho Mantis. I don’t think Konami or Hideo Kojima ever confirmed that it was indeed a child Mantis (I could be wrong, as I don’t follow the series too closely). However, Hideo Kojima has posted a photo of a Play Arts Kai figure depicting this “Kid Mantis“. The image is an unpainted prototype and no other info was revealed.
Read on to see the photo.

Does the name confirm that is isn't actually Mantis? We never knew his real name. Either way this figure is awesome.
Thanks for the info.
SPOILERS
So, have you played Phantom Pain? Seems pretty damn likely The Third Child is Psycho. and Eli Liquid.
So, without getting into any spoilers, having played the game I'd really like to see an Eli figure from Play Arts Kai as well as a Big Boss in his motorcycle outfit. What do you think the chances are we might get either of these? I suppose Kaz Miller would be nice too...
