So I went to Walmart last night to help my nephew pick out a transformer with his birthday money (he ended up getting voyager Ironhide and likes it), and I came across something I kinda had to have.






The paint detail is awesome. Luminescent green paint that's shaded around the edges of the armor. Panel lines are filled in nicely, giving all the armor very seperate and distinct pieces. He overall is very cool. But.... His ankle joints seem weak. He's fallen over several times already. With his construction, I can't figure out how to tighten his ankle joints. No visible screws or joints that pop apart.

Was hoping someone out there had this figure or might know how to help me fix the joints if I posted pics.


He's pretty cool, if you're a fan of Halo like I am.

I have the figure too, and I'm not sure if you even 'can' tighten the knees by doing something simple. I have most of the first few waves of McFarlane's Halo collection and it's the case with the bigger and smaller figures.

He's designed pretty cool in the regard there aren't screws or silly looking joints to distract from the appearance. But it becomes a problem if something isn't right. I'm wondering if some Future poured into the joint might stiffen it up...

Also, I wish he had some more weapons. I see the 6" figures have a weapons accessory pack available. Too bad I can't seem to find something like that for him. The shotgun, pistol, or rocket launcher would kick extreme ass with this size class. Do you know if any 3rd party company makes accessories?

Unfortunately it doesn't really look like it, as there's never been an upgrade kit for the 12" size. The other two 12" Halo figures only have the Assualt Rifle and Grenade too.
