ya, gotta know who you are...

My brother has gone through like 4 or 5 of the halo 2 spartans. Not really sure how many he actually has, but they all broke. I've got one in a bag here. It's blue with yellow, it's missing a foot and a hand. This other one is missing both hands, the head and a leg. CRAP.

Bungie please don't renew your liscense with McFarlane. Their figures are low quality, often come damaged or deffective, and break easily. Please get a liscense with a company who actually puts some work into their figures so they can be posed and put on a shelf or be moved often, not put in a trash can or junk pile.

I don't really care that much if Bungie renew their liscense with McFarlane,
If they do, I would buy one or two, but that is because I make stop motions with the figures I do not collect them (=
I tried making stop motions/claymationish videos and their limbs were too stiff.

There are two things on this forum that piss me off;
Idiots and group invites.
What's even worse, is that I can never seem to get away from either of them ¬_¬

No....they don't. I don't really think they care, either. The games are where most of their money is made. The figurines...not so much.
You obviously don't understand these "action" figures are collectables,not toys........adults do buy them.


Lol... 'collectables'... It's a euphemism. It's just an excuse so adults can return to their childhood, although I suppose their is nothing wrong with that. We all enjoyed those days where we battered our Dr X model with our Action Man model and some people like to enjoy those days again.

I think bungie should renew their license with McFarlane, i have several of the action figures and the detail in them is amazing, the only problem I've had with them is that the series 1 Master Chief was awkward to attach the assault rifle to his right hand and eventually the joint snapped, however this has been improved in further series of the action figures.

Who cares about detail? I want quality.

You obviously don't understand the term "collectible". If you're buying something for collectible purposes, it should never leave the box; ergo, it should NEVER BREAK. Once something leaves the box, it is deemed a toy in my books.

There is a reason why they have joints....so they can withstand light, ocassional use to pose and repose them.........these sometimes break the first time you pose them.

A collector wouldn't have to worry about that.

Somewhere in this thread I have said COLLECTORS complain about Halo 3, Halo Wars, and Halo 3: ODST action figures.
