Just a heads up on the boxed set, they are out at Target along with the red and blue Hazops 2 pack all over the central NY region.

Hmm, I was going to pick up Emile and Jorge but it looks like the single figs don't come out until late September. Maybe I'll just pick up this set, especially since it's already out.

I've seen these at most of my local targets. I still wish they were in Joe scale.

The elite is pretty nice. 4 Figures for $30 is a good deal. The box is twice as big as it needs to be though. I picked it up last weekend, and I a fan of the upgrade to the figures

hmm... just bought this and they're not in scale with previous figures. story wise that is, toy wise they're about the same size but in the story the spartans should be smaller than the last ones but the new elite is bigger than previous.

I found one of these sets at Target and I'll pass on this. It seems that the figures in the box set is slightly inferior to what has been shown. These are probably a run of not-so-good apps that they hope people will buy quickly since they come out a month early.
The Emile's I saw had terrible paint jobs on the helmet and jorge looked...I don't know. He didn't look right. I'll just wait to September. |

The boxed set I picked up looks great. I'm an out of the box collector and they look awesome all around. Just like the photos on the Spawn web site. Very glad I picked it up.

Saw these are Target today, too. Took me a little time to find because the box is like 5 times bigger than it needs to be, I wasn't looking for it on the bottom shelf there. The paint apps on the ones I saw didn't look too good but they didn't look too bad either. I saw the blue and red HAZOP ones, too.
I went to Wal-Mart also and they had the blue and red HAZOPs, as well as a ton of single-packed olive green HAZOPs, yellow Mk. Vs, Noble Six's, and Emiles. I was THIS close to getting an Emile, but the paint apps were just a little off. I'm going to be keeping my eyes open for better ones. No sightings of Jorge, Elite or Grunt though. Single packed that is.

that and the hit and miss paint apps, these figures are pretty damn cool.

It's another four surprise figures for free and you missed out by not picking one up because it was a special that ended yesterday!
No, there's nothing in there, apparently McFarlane are just testing out that size of box because that's the size of box that the upcoming Warthog and Ghost are going to come in.

None of the Walmarts in my area carry Halo figures anymore. They discontinued the line after series 6. But they did just start stocking Halo Mega Bloks. Doesn't make any sense to me

Picked up a single-packed Emile today at Walmart. Found one with no flaws on the visor paint, it's my first Halo figure and I must say it's pretty badass. Really detailed and really great articulation.

He's really customizable, as I'm guessing most of the figures in this new line are. You can pop off just about any part and swap it around. All in all I really like it. A lot of good detail and great articulation. The only minor gripe that I have is that he can't really hold the shotgun too well in one hand, as you can kind of see in the first picture.

So.... I saw the two pack of the Marines and the white Spartan vs Elite Minor or whatever it is today at Target. So those are out.
