Say what you want about not having finer paint details like a wash (which can easily be added yourself,) but with the removable armor, poseability, price point (for the interchangeable parts and the figure itself, 20 dollars is an awesome price point) not to mention the fun factor, this guy puts Mcfarlane's line to shame. That's coming from someone who's not even a huge fan of the game (I haven't played a Halo game since Reach...) Seeing this makes me wonder if Mattel cares at all about their DC Multiverse figures, because honestly, THIS is how good it could be.

"My name...is Horace!"

One of my friends was interseted, but they don't scale with his entire McFarlane collection, which makes these worthless to him.
