The Month of Master Chief January 2017 (1/17) Feature 7: McFarlane Master Chief figures

Posted on by

McFarlane was lucky enough to have the license to produce Halo action figures for several years. In that time they made several Master Chief figures. McFarlane is known for highly detailed sculpts and Master Chief got the full treatment of that.

Chief was made with various armor sets from the lore of Halo.  The quality of the sculpt really shows too. McFarlane did an AMAZING job!

In chronological order from lore.

Here is the armor from Halo the mini series Forward Unto Dawn. The piece you see to the bottom right was part of a Build-A-Emblem series. Once you had all the pieces you could assemble them to make the Bungie version of the UNSC emblem.anniversary2_masterchief_photo_01_dp Continue reading →

Halo Toy Review: McFarlane 10 inch Spartan Locke Statue

Posted on by

Ah, finally a new McFarlane piece to add to my collection! This has been out for a little bit. I’ve only just had the chance to pick it up. Thankfully, I got it on sale at Toys R Us. The price is normally $29.99. I got it for $19.99. Read on to see what I think of it.

I know some of you like to keep your collections in the box. This statue looks decent in it’s package. Though you are missing out if you don’t take it out and look at all the detail that went into this. The back of the box might be a little misleading to some. You will NOT get the unhelmeted Locke head with every box. It IS exclusive. Yes, I know it’s printed right there, but undoubtedly, someone is going to miss that fact and be upset about it. So just be forewarned.

Before I get started with this review, I need to acknowledge someone. A reader, now friend named Bobby (last name held for privacy), bought this for me. He knew that I needed this variant color Athlon figure, found it, bought it and sent it to me. He did this, with no thought of being paid back. Bobby, thank you VERY much!
