I don't really like toys as much, but Halo toys without my notice? Ok, so here we have a Blue Spartan from Halo 2, as you can see, a nice orange trim (will vary), included a shotgun and brute shot, a shiny visor, and nice details! Really, you should order a Red Spartan with this toy to recreate those Multiplayer battles for those with an Xbox-imagination edition. The model itself is rather large than I expected, but the bigger it is, the bigger the weapons included are!

Now for the bad: It needs more weapons and not just the stupid shotgun and brute shot. Way too big, looks more like some silly Toys-R-Us packaging, and at the back, it advertises more figures, gives a "this figure is from a M-rated game", and does a little explanation of the character.

Either way, buy it. Even though the game is 17-years or up, the toys are 8-years or up. Hmmmm.... Looks like a good Birthday present or Christmas.

Packaging- 4/5
It comes in a pretty big card packaging, too big in my opinion. I think it would be better sutied in a box or clamshell
detailing- 5/5
Joyride really went all the way with this- it has VERY detailed weapons, and armour, the visor is just awesome, I was excpecting it to just be flat like the origional master chief figure, but it is very true to the game.
paint-4.5/5 it's really cool. the only reason i'm giving in 4.5 instead of 5 is because it still has that sparkly over coat...I despise that over coat.
articulation-4.5/5
again, it's really good, but the wrists were very weak, also it was hard for him to hold either weapon in one hand, limiting posability
overall-4.5/5
this is a really good figure despite it's flaws, and is well worth picking up.

While I am sure they were designed as collection items, my kids wanted them for play. I've purchased other Halo action figures in the past and my only complaint has been their durability. Otherwise my kids have enjoyed the heck out of them. If there is ever a Halo 4 video game made I'm sure I'll be buying more. I do have to admit Master Chief looks cool.

If you were to hook a controler up to the figurine it would be able to do everything that the Master chief does and so much more. It is very realistic standing still or engaged in combat. It is the best toy i've ever played with. Other than toasters in the swimming poll.

This action figure is very durable and fun. I wouldn't even call it an action figure, more like a game model! Also, being an Auburn fan, the blue with orange suits me perfect. WAR EAGLE!!!!!
