All of McFarlane's Halo: Reach action figures feature around 25 points of articulation, weapons, and an incredible level of detail. Check back next week for complete photography. And there's much more Halo: Reach info to come, including details on an international distribution partnership, vehicle photos, new line ups, a San Diego Comic-Con 2010 exclusive figure, and more.

This line is like inches away from greatness. I love the figures, I just wish they had some kind of roadmap on the joints sometimes as they make some odd decisions.

Personally, I'm okay if the sculpt is compromised a little if it means everybody can take a knee or reach their weapons properly. Still, these look fantastic and I can't wait. McFarlane seems to be cleaning house and making some decent decisions as far as playability vs. sculpt these days. Still not sure why they bought the rights to Prince of Persia, though :/

Yeah man, the new Reach armor designs are incredible. Love the weathered and worn look and various equipment/ammo details. These have way more personality than the color clones of previous Halo games. Bring on Jorge!
