Halo Toy Review: Jakks Pacific Master Chief

Jakks Pacific logo

New to the Halo line of toys comes Jakks Pacific. They are known for the HUGE action figures. This is their first foray into Halo as a licensee. What a great choice for their first figure, none other than Master Chief!

Before I get started, let me first say a big thanks to Jakks for sending me not one, but TWO of these. I will be giving one away, so stay tuned for details of that contest.

Secondly, I normally do product reviews with a white background. However, this figure is SO HUGE, that I had to set it on the floor. I chose to pose it in front of my dishwasher,,, This way the background was mostly black. kay, those out of the way, let’s get started with the review, shall we?

Technical Specs:
Height: 31 inches tall
Cost: $50 US, plus tax
Articulation: Limited, will explain below with pics as well
