I purchased this figure for my 18 year old son who plays the video game. All I can really say is that it's a flawless duplicate of the CGI character. My son is very pleased and I was impressed at the posability considering the extraordinary level of detail. For a "toy" it's quite amazing.

These Gears of War figures by NECA are really not intended for children (I would hope that would be obvious based on the content of the XBox 360 game). I have mine displayed on a shelf in my classroom - they draw a lot of comments because of the game's popularity.

These figures really capture the characters with the attention to detail that NECA is known for. If you're familiar with the game, you'll instantly recognize Cole in his armor, and particularly his Lancer assault rifle. He can be displayed in several ways, and I've has no problem with balance - these GoW figures are stout and easily stand with their wide feet.

Again, these are high quality, display-worthy characters. Most of the figures come with smaller pieces that could present a choking hazard to children, so keep them out of reach.

Perfect for the Gears of War fans out there.
These are very detailed, nicely painted figures.
