5) The weapons come with little pegs so they can be held and so they can fit into holding spots. The Jackal Sniper's head, in particular, is prone to coming off. 3) The Master Chief box said it comes with grenades there were no grenades. 2)The Master Chief's rifle is designed and built so that the muzzle falls off and is nearly impossible to keep glued in place. Hand position and lack of articulation is a big disappointment. These are fighting figures and they can't even hold and manipulate their rifles for the kid's scenarios. 1)The hands cannot grip the weapons well at all. As action figure toys, they have some notable flaws. We have a couple of the other figures on order. My 8 year old son is a fan of the PC Console based HALO game,32.5 so for his birthday we got him a Master Chief and a Jackal Sniper. This review is not for collectors it is for people buying these items as toys to play with. normally macfarlane was best at paint but on this one it looks like all the cared about was mass production. all over him you can see paint splashes and streaks where they messed up while painting. on the torso they really only concentrated on the minuscule details and not the bigger things like his grenade sling. the actual visor paint did not go all the way to the base of his helmet, like it does in the game. the skull on the visor was very crude and did not look at all like Emile's real carving on his mask. but on Emile the paint was horrible, especially on the head. haloreach with macfarlane i have seen good quality in all areas included above and also with the paint. he wont stand either because his feet are round and narrow. his limbs are ratchet jointed, so they are hard to get into a good position. so it will get lost easily with no place to put it. he cant hold it and it wont go int its sheath. the most disappointing part was the knife it comes with. also as soon as i attached the gun to his back the little clip that holds it in place snapped. even once i got him to hold that part of the gun his hands were too small to hold the pump of the shotgun. his hands are exactly the same on each side so it is very hard to hold the small handle on the gun. he cannot hold the shotgun he comes with. He looks amazing on my shelf, and was a great deal.Įmile is in my opinion the coolest guy in noble team and when i got him i was very excited but once i opened it, i was really let down. The paint job is great on the figure, and the overall attention to detail is amazing. My only joint-related issue is that his knees won't bend at 90° angles, so you can't quite make him sit perfectly. The arms are a little harder to position, but can be mostly contorted the way you'd want. The shotgun is better off attached to his back, where it is still a little easy to knock off, but sturdy enough to not be a huge problem. The shotgun will not sit well in his hands like in the picture. The grenades fit into his hands or attach to his belt. The knife does not fit in the sheath, as many point out, but I think he looks better holding it. The package includes a shotgun, two grenades, and his kukri knife. If you have any interest in figures at all, you will be blown away by the value here.
