\"McF<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here’s another of the multiplayer spartan figures form this wave.<\/p>\n

\"McF<\/a>Slender packaging that shows the figure off nicely. As you can see it also includes an armor code. This for the ‘Ruin’ skin. This skin is actually similar to the ‘Toxic’ skin that comes with the Scout figure. Again, you need not use the colors shown. These are just the ones that are chosen to highlight the skin.<\/p>\n

\"McF<\/a>The sculpt is the same as that of the Walgreen’s exclusive CIO from this wave. The difference is in the paint. This one comes with a vibrant purple color.<\/p>\n

As with the Scout, my only complaint here is that it didn’t come as either the team red or blue color instead. Given how scarce the series are between one another, I’m not sure if we’ll see every iteration of spartan armor from Halo 4. So in the meantime, I’d prefer them as either red or blue teams.<\/p>\n

\"McF<\/a>The DMR is nicely detailed and of course the peg is removable.<\/p>\n

\"McF<\/a>As always, McFarlane’s Halo figures have fantastic Articulation, as seen above.<\/p>\n

The sculpt is fantastic, as expected.<\/p>\n

Depending on your like of this color, you may want it or not. It’s a nice color, but again, not knowing if we’ll get every armor permutation, I’d prefer red or blue instead.<\/p>\n

I give this fig a 8.5 of 10. It would have scored higher for me if it would have had a ‘skin’ as the Walgreen’s exclusive did, or at least have been red or blue.<\/p>\n
