I finally broke down and purchased my first Kai Art Halo Action Figure and after buying hundreds and hundreds of McFarlane ones I say hands down these are by far better.
While McFarlane are say more human in shape these look and pose and have far better detail. Ok this is not about McFarlane so I digress.
So the first thing I did was pull the shoulders forward not knowing it had this feature I thought I broke it. I finally noticed this was what actually allows the realistic posing to actually be done.
So I took a few pix to show it off and made one of Halo Reach. I did not have a ton of time at work but just a few notes. I added my own smoke in front of the MC to make him look more like he was in the original as well I did not blur the top of his helmet and the gun on his back. I felt leaving them untouched made it seem more there.
Anyway enjoy these and when I get my Silver Comic Con next week I will post it as well.
