Product Description
    Play the game. Own the figures! Recreate your own battle scenes! A must-have for any Halo fan!
Two powerhouses of pop culture-- McFarlane Toys and Microsoft-- are collaborating to produce action figures based on the fantastically popular video game series. From the incredible 3rd entry in the Halo trilogy, comes this awesome 6-inch scale action figure! Order yours now! This Series 1 action figure includes a Spartan soldier in Red Mark VI armor, hero of the hit game series, as well as accessories. Halo is a popular series of science fiction first-person shooter video games developed by Bungie Studios and published by Microsoft. The games are set in the 'Halo universe'-- a science fiction universe created by Bungie Studios exclusively for the series. Halo: Combat Evolved quickly became known as the first 'killer application' for Microsoft's Xbox video-game console when it was released in 2001, achieving both critical acclaim and financial success. Combat Evolved was later published on the PC and finally released for the Mac (for which it was originally developed prior to Microsoft's buying developer Bungie).

5 out of 5 stars I guess I'm the odd man out.   September 30, 2008
Jonpaul Kronser (Portland, OR)
I really like this figure. He's not as detailed as some of the other McFarlane toys, but he's got 20+ points of articulation which might explain that. There were complains of Quality Control, which I would agree with (My arbiter figure came pretty messed up) but I didn't have any problems with the one I purchased from Fred Meyer.

If you have a Master Chief figure, this one is almost identical, except for the torso armor. On MC's torso, there is some battle damage, where this guy has none.

Also you can remove his torso, shoulders, and head. He comes with an Assault Rifle, and a frag grenade. Also, he's got a yellow stripe across his Bicep and his Thigh, like in Multiplayer.

I would say this is my second favorite figure so far, as I think most of the other spartan armor is kind of tacky.



1 out of 5 stars Quality Control is there even any with this company now?   May 20, 2008

Be warned there quality control if you call it that is really bad now. I bought a lot of halo 3 series 1 figures 75% of them has defects people will notice. Most of the defects are for the Master Chiefs & Mark VIs. The rest of the line is in top shape. There is also a error in the orange grunt they glued the mask to the head. So do not do what i did break the mask & jaw off trying to get it off. The Green one comes off like it should. 30% of the defects i got are real bad the rest i can deal with. I suggest buying locally so you can actually look for broken hands or limbs. Also keep eyes out for mold defects & sections not painted or wrong paint on them.

Just a side note they are switching all there lines to cardboard packaging no more of the old ones. There goes buying them to collect sealed.

1 out of 5 stars A Rare Miss.   March 13, 2008

I own dozens of McFarlane Toys (Spawn, Robocop, etc...) and have come to expect exceptional quality, artistry and craftsmanship from this brand. Unfortunately, the Halo series of toys have failed to meet the high standards many of us McFarlane fans have become accustomed to. They are cheap looking and are far less detailed then the Spawn or Army figurines. These toys are designed to be articulable at 18 points and while this may seem cool, in reality, there are very few articulations that result in a cool pose. Furthermore, all the articulable joints make the characters look awkward-like those WWF or GI Joe figures that have deformed joints and disproportionate body parts.

It's worth noting that Microsoft Inc. (who's logo is present on the toys) may have had too much control over the design and overall production of these figurines (thus effectively undercutting McFarlane's ability to design these figurines).

Whatever the case or the reason, this set of figures is a rare miss for an exception action figure maker.
