Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 Special Items guide: Learn how to unlock the Bandana, Stealth Camouflage, Dolls, and more.

Special Items

  • Bandana - Grants the wearer infinite ammo while worn. Earn the bandana by playing through the game without killing anyone, or buy it from Drebin for five million Drebin Points.
  • Digital Camera - After finding this item by Sunny's desk during Act Two's mission briefing, you can view photos in the photo album accessed from the main menu.
  • Scanning Plug - After playing Metal Gear Online for more than ten hours, you can purchase this item from Drebin for ten thousand Drebin Points. When equipped, if you go up to a PMC (Private Military Company) and put them in a CQC (Close Quarters Combat) chokehold, you can scan them and see the locations of all SOP-registered soldiers in the area.
  • Stealth Camouflage - While equipped, Snake becomes invisible (100% camo index) to enemy soldiers. However, Gekkos and Scarabs can still see Snake, and soldiers will still be able to hear him. Also, if you run through an enemy, the camo will automatically switch off, and it won't completely conceal Snake while in an alert phase or boss fight. You can obtain the stealth camo by either playing through the game without going into a single alert (alert phase), or you can buy it from Drebin for five million Drebin Points.

Camouflages

  • Altair - Earn Altair's outfit by obtaining the Assassin emblem.
  • Corpse Camo - This camouflage is obtained for dying too many times. It is the only way to fool electronic enemies such as Scarabs or Gekkos. If you lie completely flat, enemies will assume Snake is dead and ignore him, automatically getting rid of an alert after finishing their investigation.
  • Middle East Rebel Disguise - Explore the northeast section of the rebel's headquarters in Act One to find this camo in one of the lockers.
  • South American Rebel Disguise - Explore Cove Valley Village in Act Two to find this camo. There's a building against the same wall where you begin that's locked, so you'll have to cause a commotion to draw the soldier hiding inside to come out.
  • Suit - Complete the game once to earn this uniform.

FaceCamo

  • Big Boss - Earn the Big Boss emblem. While wearing this camo, enemies that see you will become terrified or pass out.
  • Colonel Campbell - Stun Colonel Campbell with the MK.II during Act One's mission briefing.
  • Crying Beauty - Defeat Crying Beauty using non-lethal tactics.
  • Drebin - Acquire sixty weapons in one game.
  • Laughing Beauty - Defeat Laughing Beauty using non-lethal tactics.
  • Otacon - Stun Otacon with the MK.II during Act Three's mission briefing.
  • Raging Beauty - Defeat Raging Beauty using non-lethal tactics.
  • Raiden A - Stun Sunny with the MK..
  • Raiden B - Stun Naomi with the MK..
  • Screaming Beauty - Defeat Screaming Beauty using non-lethal tactics.

Note: For any of the FaceCamos earned during Mission Briefing scenes, you must watch the entire sequence to earn the FaceCamo. If you skip any of the cinematics (cutscenes), it won't register.

Dolls

Dolls are trophies that can be collected. Some dolls unlock items, while others can be equipped and used as weapons.

  • Haven Trooper - Complete the Advent Palace portion of Act One using non-lethal methods. Afterwards, the doll will be in the underground parking garage where the Rat Patrol parts with Snake. Remember that if you shoot a Haven Trooper while they are hanging from the ceiling and fall down, it will register as a kill.
  • Laughing Octopus - Defeat Laughing Octopus using non-lethal tactics. Afterwards, the doll will be on one of the beds in the lab during the Beauty fight.
  • Raging Raven - Defeat Raging Raven using non-lethal tactics. Afterwards, the doll will be on the highest floor of the tower during the Beauty fight.
  • Crying Wolf - Defeat Crying Wolf using non-lethal tactics. Afterwards, the doll will be against the wall behind where Snake begins during the Beauty fight.
  • Screaming Mantis - Defeat Screaming Mantis using non-lethal tactics. After hitting the Psycho Mantis doll with non-lethal rounds and picking it up, finish off Screaming Mantis and her Beauty form, and then head to the north exit to find the doll.
  • Psycho Mantis - Shoot the doll hanging from Screaming Mantis' right hand to force her to drop it. This must be completed to defeat the boss. Equipping the Psycho Mantis doll allows Snake to control enemies' actions.
  • The Sorrow - Shoot the other doll hanging from the string in Screaming Mantis' left hand and force her to drop it. The Sorrow doll allows Snake to control dead soldiers when equipped, and it allows you to see ghosts in Act Four while the camera is equipped.

Note: While the Psycho Mantis and Sorrow dolls are usable items, the four Beast dolls and the Haven Trooper doll serve another purpose. If all five are collected, Snake will earn the Solar Gun, which knocks enemies unconscious and causes them to drop items. It's also a pretty effective weapon against Vamp. Sunlight charges the Solar Gun.
