<\/a><\/p>\nTechnical Specifications:<\/strong><\/span> On with the pics!\u00a0<\/strong>(Click pics to make\u00a0BIGGER<\/strong>) Here’s the figure with the weapon. This is all of the contents of the box. Detail of the figure’s helmet. Though this technically isn’t Emile, Mattel did a great job of replicating the scratched skull on the visor that Emile is known for. Here is the Spartan Wrath in orthogonal views. The figure is a little stretched height-wise. It’s the only thing I’m disappointed with, regarding Mattel’s 12 inch Halo figs. I’d rather they be bulkier front to back and the limbs not stretched. However, since they are very affordable toys, I can overlook that. (A correctly proportioned 12 inch figure and more detailed paint application would likely make the figures cost $30-40 US each, whereas the slender versions are $8-10. Much more affordable toys!) The articulation of the 12 inch Mattel figures in comparison to the 6 inch figures is less. However, the 12 inch figures cost less than half of the 6 inch ones. Due to this, the articulation is acceptable, to me. The Shotgun can attach to the back of the figure via a small hole in the back, coupled with a pin attached to the gun. Though the 12 inch Mattel Halo figures have less articulation than their 6 inch counterparts, they can still be put into cool poses, as seen below. Evaluation<\/strong><\/span> Do I recommend this product? Yes. Especially if you like Emile from Noble team. If I had to guess, I’d say Mattel won’t make a proper 12 inch Emile, so this is as\u00a0close<\/span>\u00a0as we’re likely to get.<\/span> Though the 12 inch Mattel Halo figures are stretched to meet that height and a bit thin front to back, they are still fun toys. They would be great for kids to play with and make for nice display figures for collectors. The cost is very affordable for these (again I only paid $8.44 for mine from\u00a0Was Mart).<\/span><\/p>\n If you have any questions about this figure that I didn’t cover in the review, please do not hesitate to ask me.

\nEach of Mattel’s 12 inch Halo figure is in a tall slender box with the top half of the figure showing through a window. Several of the other figures are shown on the back of the box.
\nThe Spartan Wrath comes with a Shotgun. It’s hard to see through the front panel but, is clearly shown on the back of the box. The knife on it’s shoulder is not removable.

\nSculpt:\u00a0<\/strong>Good, though the figure is stretched to fit the box and is compressed at the torso to be thinner than it’s in-game model. The right shoulder armor should have been a lot bigger. There is some detail that is missing or smoothed over. 8 of 10 medals!<\/strong>
\nArticulation: <\/strong>While somewhat limited, there’s enough to get the figure into few cool poses. Articulated ankles would have really helped with this (and all of the other Mattel 12 inch figures). Again, I’m keenly aware that the point of these figs is to put affordable toys into the hands of kids and collectors alike. 8 out of 10 medals<\/strong>
\nPaint Application:\u00a0<\/strong>This figure is mostly all red and black. While red is my favorite color, it kind of makes this figure a little drab.\u00a08\u00a0of 10 medals<\/strong>
\nAccessories: <\/strong>The figure comes with a Shotgun.\u00a08\u00a0out of 10 medals<\/strong>
\nPlayability:<\/strong>\u00a0This is marked 4 years and older. Given the large size of the figure and accessory, I agree with that. However, the nature of the toy itself, being modeled after a mature rated game, is better suited for older children, in my opinion. I suggest 8 years minimum. For kids it definitely makes for a fun toy. If you’re an adult collector, it looks good on display, whether in or out of the box. 8\u00a0of 10 medals<\/strong>
