This is one heck of a sculpt and paint job. And it's a sturdy, heavy piece: easily holding an Elite or other enemy up for an action pose. There's a great deal of articulation overall - including the "toes" and end of the fuel rod gun. Even the packaging is fairly handsome and display worthy.
A couple of smaller minuses - Although there's a lot of articulation, it's still at about the same level as the other figures in the series. My first impulse was to set it up in the "defensive crouch" position, but this just didn't seem possible. And the (removable for a Scorpion-blasted look) back spikes were literally a pain to put in. Be careful.
These are extremely small setbacks with the overall quality in mind, though.
If you like Hunters, or simply want a kingpin piece to set off your collection, this figure is easily worth the few extra bucks. In perfect scale and on the money.

Well... this is probably the best one out there. Extremely big, detailed, durable, well colored... the size is extremely accurate. Absolutely flawless. A must buy!

I was so happy to finally get my Hunter in the mail, as after the usual opening process, I discovered that his back spikes required self installation. After literally 10 minutes of attempting to get a single spike in his back, I decided to let it be. The joints are highly flexible, and you can make almost any pose with him as you would see within the Halo games.

this is by far the coolest of the halo figures i have bought. i thought the brute cheiftain was the one then i saw they were releasing the hunter, and i just had to have it. i am very satisfied with how it looks and the scale. i would recommend this figure to halo fan.

I'm a big Halo fan and have been wanting a decent hunter figure since 2001 when Halo came out, and now 8 years later it is here, TRUST ME this figure is PERFECT, its:

Durable
Big
Heavy
Extremely Detailed
Correctly sized to fit with other 5" figures (the hunter is 8.75")
Moveable and Pose-able

A True collectors item and absolutely worth [...] A MUST BUY FOR ANY HALO FAN REGARDLESS OF AGE 5/5

My 4 year old received this as a gift (don't lecture me about Halo for kids, he loves the art, story and characters and is immersed in imaginative play because of it) and this figure is quite substantial. Like a "real" Hunter, it dwarfs the other action figures. The figure is very detailed and has held up numerous drops and kills by Master Chief. My only regret with this one is that I didn't have the gifter get two of them. My son says, "they come in pairs..." It was purchased purchased xmas 2009 in a chain toy story and they no longer exist out there. My son has over 1/2 of these figures and this one is by far the best. We've been a Bungie Family for well over 15 years now with me starting on Myth, but Halo is by far the most interesting story I've seen. Now, if I could only afford those plasma laser tag guns, we'd be set for household warfare. I removed a durability star due to one of the spikes coming out, but since the ball remained on the spike, it was easily snapped back in.

More of a collector and this toy works well. Not sure why it would be educational but still looks pretty close to the game version from Halo 3 and up. Spikes are removable and sometimes hard to adjust aesthetically. Colors are nice. Decent size and weight. Claws have three moving fingers. Shield does not come off as far as I know. Feet move in the y-axis in the toes and heel as to compensate and balance the feet according to its large weight. Head rotates in x-axis all the way around. Not sure about playing with it. In my response, maybe a little much for younger kids. Had it sitting on a shelf and it fell on my head. Hurt pretty bad due to its weight and spikes. Won't be doing that again.

I managed to snag a deal when I purchased my Hunter Action Figure so I figured that it was a win-win situation for me. That aside, this is an excellent collectable action figure for the Halo/Sci-Fi fan. This figure is thick and heavy! I don't reccomend throwing it or crushing it for that matter, but if you're a serious/avid collector, then you won't be doing that anyway. I think that you'll be quite satisfied with this action figure in your collection and with the size and detail put into it, you might, just might, find it becoming one of your favorite centerpieces.

The Hunter is a sturdy toy, and the moving parts are great. You cannot pose it in its most common in-game pose, but it stands up well in lots of different poses, even though it is rather top heavy. This is because the feet are quite big. The level of detail is amazing! Especially amazing considering it has moving parts. Some of the moving parts are spines on its back, and the prongs around the fuel rod gun on its right arm. I made a neat stop motion animation with it, and I didn't have any trouble positioning it the way I wanted too. It is much bigger than the other action figures. I would buy it again, and I may.

Really really nice figure that demands your attention..... No Halo or action figure fan should be without this one....

it's inexpensive and NICE, so just get it.... before long these won't be available, then you'll have to pay ebay prices for it....

just get it now! it's one of the nicer figs in my collection.....

5 stars!
