Square Enix has sent out photos and info for their upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain – The Third Child “Tretij Rebenok” Play Arts Kai Figure. The name clears up speculation and we now know that this is a character similar to Psycho Mantis, but is not “Kid Mantis“, as many had assumed. The figure comes in a straight jacket, wearing a gas mask. The only accessory listed is the figure stand. Details from SE:
Clad in a gas mask and an ill-fitting black straitjacket, here’s Enix’s Play Arts Kai version of Tretij Rebenok, the 3rd Child from “Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.” WIth the sleeves hanging down dismally and with bare feet, the 3rd Child projects a feeling of eeriness and mystery.
The Third Child Play Arts Kai Figure is scheduled for release in November. It’s listed at 9,800 Yen (about $79 USD). Toyark sponsor HobbyLink Japan has the pre-order for $67 plus shipping.
You can see the new photos after the jump.

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...
