I didn't see a Halo thread and search keeps throwing a database error so I started one.

My wife found the Halo Spartan Collection while grocery shopping. Only snagged Master Chief for now.

They used a lot of ball joints so he's loose in places but the sculpt and articulation is great. Mines right arm shoulder "ratchet" is completely loose but I'll see what I can do to pose him. I pulled him apart at the abdomen while seeing how far back he can lean and thought I broke it but popped it back on. Might be a weak point after some play tho.

It includes 2 guns and 7 hands total so lots of posing possibilities. There's a game code with every figure but I haven't checked to see what it unlocks. With Halo Infinite being delayed Im not in a rush. These figures were probably supposed to release around the games original release period so I'm glad they weren't delayed.

For those interested, it's from Wicked Cool Toys, which is owned by Jazwares.

EDIT: Here a pic hours later lol

I picked up the Chief. I really like him and you have to remember the Chief is supposed to be about 7 feet tall in Armor, so I think he fits in well with Legends and such.

I have Chief and the Mk V[B] and I'd say they scale very well with modern Legends figures, especially Chief. The Spartans are meant to be at the 1% of peak human size and strength outside of their armor as is, which makes them even larger and more formidable with the armor on. With the size of these figures, I can actually buy that there is a human inside of the armor...even moreso than I can any Iron Man figure we've received thus far.







I'm really digging the figures, though both of two 6 inch figures that I have suffer from some really bad QC issues in loose joints. Chief had helicopter arms (which I was able to remedy by inserting a couple of tightly wound rubber bands around the base of the arms and pushing them into the butterfly joint) while my MK V had loose arms and elbow joints as well. It seems to be commonplace according to the reviews I've seen though, so if you're willing to deal with those possible issues, go for it. If Jakks shores up the QC issues and treats the line anything like they do Fortnite, we're in for a pretty awesome treatment.

It's been a minute since this threads been used...but I figured it was worth digging up, since I came across Wave 2 for the first time today.



I'm glad to say that many of the QC issues that plagued the first wave are way better this time around. The arms could still be a bit tighter, but they are on par with the average Marvel Legends figure at this point, as they can actually hold up their weapons now. Elbows and knees don't have much flop to them, and the legs are much sturdier as well.

The ab crunch could still blows but the good this time outweighs the bad. If these had even half the issues the first wave had, I was gonna be done with the line. They have me though for the next wave at least.
