Halo HLW0018 6.5” Spartan Collection – Master Chief Highly Articulated, Poseable with Weapon Accessories-Scaled to Play & Display, multicolor

I bought this product as a gift for a relative who collects the series. Although they are mostly kept in their respective boxes, they figures are sometimes taken out to be handled and light-heartedly played with.At first glance it is rather expensive for a single figure. Unless you or the person who you're getting it for is a Halo fan, perhaps it's not worth it. But for around 30 Euro, it's a reasonable price for a Halo fan.For those who are familiar with the franchise, it is as accurate to the real thing as it gets. I, personally, couldn't find any differences between the figure and the in-game armour (and accessories). The armour is very well detailed- the paint applications are flawless, and the visor has a lovely metallic, reflective hue.The figure is posable and comes with alternative hands which can be easily switched out for an array of gestures. You can make your figure salute or hold one of the weapons that comes with it. The weapons are ideally scaled with the figure- they seem very natural and come together perfectly.The only downside is the consistency of joints. Some are a little too tight, others are a little too loose. The latter is the real problem, if you consider taking them out of the box. In my case, it was one of the legs that would flop around at the slightest movement of the figure. Not ideal for posing the figure the way you want. It can be viewed as an easy fix, though, with the use of blue tac or play dough.

My grandson was happy with this, he had been asking for it. It arrived quickly and in good condition.

Great product

Bought for our resident HALO fan who was very happy with it, all in all feels reasonably sturdy and with all the articulation is easy to pose and looks good. The addition of a few more HALO weapons would have been nice though.

Honestly I'm buying these for custom Spartan figures, it's a excellent base body for that!

Spur of the moment purchase. I collect 6 and 7inch figures and am a big halo fan so this seemed like a good deal. As soon as it was in stock I ordered it and it arrived promptly. The figure looks ok straight out the box. But the plastic feels a bit cheap and flimsy. This isn't helped by the poor paint work which makes it look like a £5 toy.Straight out the box the top joint on the left elbow was stuck and after trying everything I decided to leave it as I was about to rip the whole left arm off.The weapons are very thin and the rifle in particular doesn't fit the hands well. Also it doesn't come with traditional weapon hands so there is no grip hand to support the rifle.I've since repainted the figure and added a black wash to dirty it up a bit and make it look better and not look so plasticky. But should I really need to do this ?In closing looks ok but needs a bit of work to make it look great.

I'm a toy photographer so I spend a lot of time posing figures to create the 'perfect scene' and articulation of figures of course is of paramount importance and unfortunately is one of the biggest flaws with this figure. If, you want to just stand the figure in a cabinet for display purposes only then it would be great but for myself, the joints are loose on the legs, ankles, one arm which makes posing incredibly difficult plus there are significant blemishes on the visor and poor alignment of the torso which is unnecessary and not evident in other manufacturers in the same price bracket (Hasbro , McFarlane etc)

Great value nice figure but arrived broken so had to fix it with super glue ( broken in box ) but box not damaged but easy fix you would never know ,still good value and looks good on my shelf
