The Red Team Leader is one of the few Halo figures I have been wanting to see. This is how Spartans should look. The Master Chief looks mostly the same as all the other ones we see Mcfarlane Toys release with almost every series of Halo they do: Great detail, great articulation, kind of dorky looking though. He looks like he is wearing a diaper. Red Team Leader I believe the defining mold for Spartans that we have seen thus far. He just looks ready to kick alien butt. The shoulder pads seem to add a lot to the outstanding features of this figure. I have never really believed the phrase "it looks like it stepped out of the movie/game/show" until I saw this figure. AMAZING detail with many points of articulation(I counted 32). Very durable, very sturdy, and very pose-able. Amazing paint job all around, but especially the visor of the helmet. His assault rifle fits very nicely in both hands, and he looks very good with a shotgun as well. He can hold the flamethrower nicely also, though not as good as Master Chief. They even molded the trigger finger on the right hand just perfectly to fit with the grip of the weapons. Just an amazing figure. I hope they sell them separately eventually, because I would love to get two more Red Leaders and outfit them with SMGs and shotguns like the game. If you have to get one Spartan figure, let this be the one. Heck, he comes with Master Chief, so you cover all your bases. Not for small children since the weapons are small and could be choke-able.

Hi, Ray again.These two figures are awesome. Both are very articulated and the paint job is a master piece.The helmet on Master Chief is a little smaller than Red Team Leader's helmet.The flamethrower is very well painted, but the only drawback is the Chief's left hand isn't meant to hold the top handle on it.Both are great, good job McFarlane, another great product.

To be honest, I just wanted the older Master Chief armor (Mark V) b/c I already had the Halo 3 Chief. I bought two boxes b/c it looked so cool I knew I would want to open one box. More than worth it. Great deal online too at $20something bucks because you can't find this one in stores!

The figures (like all McFarlane figures) are really detailed. Great to collect, display, or play with!

My son was a very happy boy when he received these for Christmas. They hold up very well and gives him hours of entertainment.

I got this box a while ago from Target. These two have survived to this day while my other Chief... well....he fell in half. But I think the only drawback is that the Red Team Leader doesn't have as much poseability as the others. His arms and legs are movable with those weird snapping joints. He is cool. And chief with the assault rifle has the best PERFECT grip on it. They look awesome. And they are.

I've had this thing for 2 years now, got it on my 12th birthday, AND IT STILL HAS HELD UP!

I'm generally quite critical of many of the McFarlane Halo figures, largely because they're fragile and don't hold up well at all when it comes to actually being played with. I'm glad to say here that that's not the case with the Red Team Leader (Jerome-092) & Master Chief (John-117) 2-Pack. These are a cut above any of the other Halo figures that I've bought and they just feel more durable. The figures themselves are very cool, and while I like Master Chief as much as the next Halo player, the Red Team Leader figure is easily the better of the two. Master Chief looks kind of frumpy here, but the Red Team Leader looks much more imposing and powerful. Overall, this is a much better effort by McFarlane toys. Halo fans will be pleased with this.
