If that was Liquid and Solid at the end of the e3 2015 trailer, then it's highly likely we'll see Solidus in some capacity. Thematically, it would make more sense for Solidus to appear older than the other clones. If we were to use the film "Jack" as an example, Solidus could appear 40 by the age of 12, which he'd be at most by 1984.

That does not in any way explain why he then seemingly didn't get older by MGS2, which takes place 25 years later. People need to stop looking at how he can be old enough to be Ishmael, and start thinking how he could then still appear young  enough to be Solidus we know which looks at most late thirties to early fourties.

I'm pretty sure accerated aging even in MGS couldn't be amped up to make a 12 year old look 40 but then completely stop after that point.
