Mass Effect 3 Garrus Action Figure (Series 2)

im extremely excited fro garrus coming to my door hopefully tommorow amazons delivery service is fast at least for me anyway from what revies i have saw this figure is very detailed and comes with a very detailed weapon even though its legions signiture gun but hey ill just swap the guns around when garrus gets here. many complaints about this figurine line is that they lack articulation now i have said this in nearly all of my mass effect reviews THESE TOYS ARE COLLECTOR ITEMS THE ARTICULATION THEY DO HAVE IS ENOUGH TO GET THEM INTO A SIMPLE POSE THESE COLLECTIBLES ARE NOT AND I REPAET ARE NOT FOR PLAYING WITH SO IF YOUR A KID WANTING TO PLAY WITH THESE STEER CLEAR THESE ARE FOR THE SERIOUS COLLECTORS. also if you are dissapointed ith this figure nd have some cash to burn look up the play arts kai garrus more detailed more articulated and a few inches bigger i have the play arts commander shephard and it is fantastic hey if you wanna know just search it up on amazon i have got a review on it a short one but what a bargain i got it for

Thankfully, Garrus hasn't suffered too much by the lack of effort put into these figures. Unfortunately, most of his good qualities are entirely visual. His armour looks fantastic to start off, lots of detail and battle scars, he's a lot like shepard and grunt, with the heavy armour really stealing the show. His gun is almost a real piece of eye candy, and he can just about hold it with both hands.His legs however, and his shoulders, and terribly limited in their articulation. I really wish they'd have put ball joint hips into these figures, and ankles too, there are so few poses you can fit them in which really work.I'd still recommend Garrus to any fan, regardless of his faults, as he does look like a champ, stood on my shelf with his humongous rifle. He's one of the best out of the 8 so far.

This is the first Mass Effect figure I've bought, so I can't compare it to the others. His armour looks really great, but his face lacks any sort of clarity and doesn't really look like Garrus - I would try to repaint it if I was good at that sort of thing. Also on my particular model his visor is bent at an odd angle so it doesn't cover his eye, which is disappointing. His hands don't hold the gun properly so it keeps falling off. He also is very limited, pose-wise.But, even with all these problems, I love the model, and at a distance I don't really notice all the issues with it. It's worth it just to have everyone's favourite sniper turian stood on my desk. I'm sure it'd be great for any Garrus / ME fan :)

GREAT DETAIL ON THIS MODEL UNLIKE THANE WHICH WAS A BIT OF A LET DOWN AND I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT THESE REALLY ARE NOT TOYS....MOVE THE LIMBS ABOUT TOO MUCH AND THEY BREAK AT THE JOINT. ALL MASS EFFECT FANS WILL LOVE THESE FIGURES AND I JUST HOPE WE GET ....SAMARA,KASUMI,JACOB,A COLLECTOR,HACKETT,ANDERSON,THE DIFFERENT GETHS ETC ETC.....MORE PLEASE.

Also nice item.Indeed the articulation is limited, but that stems from a design choice. What it lacks in movement it makes up for in detail and looks.Glad I bought it.

This figure is of Garrus, and although the later packaging by Big Fish has the Mass Effect 3 logo this is Garrus when he was masquerading as Archangel on the space station Omega. This can be told by the damage to the collar section of his armour. The main problem with this figure and the Legion one is that each has the others signature weapon. Garrus comes with the Widow, which in Mass Effect 2 onwards is Legions rifle, Garrus's signature weapon is the Mantis which comes with Legion. First off, I got both figures and swapped the rifles around, neither figure will hold their 'proper' weapon. The Mantis has too large a handgrip for Garrus. So, I kept the Widow with him.Garrus's figure has a substantial weight and he slots into the rather mediocre stands that come with this series easily enough. Recommended, but if you want them shop around, the price of these figures is going up all the time.
