    Cool Toy but.... - 3 stars
    Halo 3 Series 1 Review
    This toy is very detailed and very cool. I bought it for my son, who loves it, but the hands are constantly falling off, the rifle does not fit well in the hands, and the toy did not come with the grenades like the product description said. I am somewhat disappointed in this purchase.

    Halo 3 Series 1 Review
    When i decited to by these McFarlane "action figure" I started reading reviws on these items... Big mistake. Every one was crying over how horible these "action figures" were. so i decited to test one out. It was the best buy I made on amozon. (but ebay is still cheaper.) However amozon DID mess up on the wepons this item came with.

    Halo 3 Series 1 Review
    wow
    you people must have gotten the bad end of THAT stick
    something i'd like to point out real quick
    none of the figures have the right weapons and/or gear pictured or listed
    well
    except the covies
    all the spartans are just totally screwed up
    so boo hoo
    get over it
    it's a grenade
    i've got three other figures with them, and to to tell you the truth they're annoying,
    they're tiny, easily lost if removed, and they take up a valuable storage spot on spartans
    grenades are over rated
    that being said
    this guy is fantastic
    i've read some of the other reviews about how he isn't meant for children's play etc etc and that's true
    but i mean come on
    he's from a video game that centers around killing vast quantities of people
    of course he's not designed for 4 and 5 year olds
    despite this, he is incredably durable
    i bought him at Alakazam around when the first series came out, so that i could have someone to fight my brute chieftain, and i've been playing with him every day practicly
    i've dropped him out of helicopters, pitted him against thousands of clones
    (i'll be the first to admit i still play with toys, yes, you nerds out there, we can all admit it now)
    and he still holds up
    in fact, i like him the best out of all nine of my guys (six spartans, two brutes, and the grunt)
    the painting is the most acurate to the game i've seen, with a sort of bronze/green remeniscent of the E3 announcement trailer, and the articulation means you can replicate any action pose, or any ragdoll, from the game
    his AR is sturdy, and fits incredably well into his hand, loose enough to allow for a fast melee, but tight enough not to fall out at the slightest touch, and his molding is supurb, down to the nicks and scratches of his armor
    all in all, this is the exact figure to get your die hard Halo fan
    be it the old school CE devotee, or the noob Halo 3 fanatic

    The Master Chief... - 4 stars
    Halo 3 Series 1 Review
    Being a fan of the game series, I'd wanted to get a Master Chief figure for some time, but had missed the Halo 2 release. So when the Halo 3 figures came out, I picked this guy up at a local Toys'R'Us.
    Impressions: I can't say I have any complain with this figure appearance wise. He is well detailed, not just with painted details, but sculpted elements, from the various lines of his armor, to pits and dents, to the black inner layer of the armor. No sculpted detail was spared.
    As far as possibility, again I was not disappointed. Arms, legs, knees, elbows, even wrists, ankles and toes move, giving one a wide variety of poses to put him in.
    There is negatives, though. He doesn't seem terrible sturdy, although mine hasn't broken yet. But I take care of my stuff. I can imagine a kid taking him through serious play and breaking something off. But this figure seems like more of a collectors' piece to me.
    Also, as you'll notice others have said, the grenades (that the package said were included) were nowhere to be found inside. Thus, the Master Chief comes only with his assault rifle, and the peg you use to mount it on his back. Really, where are the grenades?
    There were no instructions about mounting the weapon either, even though it is pretty straight forward. Peg goes into his back, and the small end of the peg sticks out so you can put it in the hole of his rifle, thus supporting it. But to me, it seems a bit odd for him to be holding no weapon, yet have his rifle on his back. I really wish for more weapons. Maybe a shotgun or a pistol even maybe?
    Oh yeah, the rifle doesn't fit perfectly in his hand either. It tends to be quite lose.
    And while the paint job on the figure is pretty good, the rifle (at least the one that came with mine) does seem to have a lesser quality paint job.
    But anyway, for collectors, this is a fine figure. Just don't expect a high durability figure, and don't be surprised if you get no grenades.

    Halo Action Figures - from a Child User's View - 3 stars
    Halo 3 Series 1 Review
    This review is not for collectors; it is for people buying these items as toys to play with. My 8 year old son is a fan of the PC Console based HALO game, so for his birthday we got him a Master Chief and a Jackal Sniper. We have a couple of the other figures on order. As action figure toys, they have some notable flaws. 1)The hands cannot grip the weapons well at all. These are fighting figures and they can't even hold and manipulate their rifles for the kid's scenarios. Hand position and lack of articulation is a big disappointment. 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. 3) The Master Chief box said it comes with grenades; there were no grenades. 4)They are not particularly sturdy. The Jackal Sniper's head, in particular, is prone to coming off. 5) The weapons come with little pegs so they can be held and so they can fit into holding spots. You will have to glue the pegs into the weapons or - you will lose them, or they will stick into the holding holes and have to be pried loose to be put back into the weapon.
    Overall, my son is happy to have these guys, but I notice that he clearly does not find them very much fun to play with compared to his expectations and to his other action figures and Legos. I believe these design and construction issues are a big part of that.
