I like action figures. I like setting them up in poses around my room and letting them act as modern gargoyles. (Yes, I'm a nerd.) Unfortunately, they cost money, and I have a hard time justifying letting go of cash for something that will look cool, but spend the rest of its life on my shelf in an epic pose. As a result, I have many fewer than I would like.
I intend to change that a bit more this year though. I've decided to bite the debit card and collect some of the Halo: Reach action figures that McFarlane Toys will release along with the epic game of the same name. Not all of them of course, that would be way too much money. However, I would like to get all six members of Noble team, as well as a few covenant figs to pose fighting them (mostly elite permutations). Also, if I start now, I can buy the figs as they're released, instead of all at once, making the price easier to swallow a bit at a time.
Of course, here is the frustration, McFarlane is making an exclusive figure called 'Noble 7' available at Comic-Con next weekend, and only at Comic-Con. Here is a pic:
