Toy Tease: Gears of War Play Arts -Kai-Marcus Fenix Preview
Okay, so, I love Gears of War. And I love action figures. I know I just blew your minds, but stay with me here. I received an e-mail from Square-Enix about a blind box offering available via their online store. After looking into it, I had to see what action figures they had. And when Marcus Fenix popped into view, my reaction was "whoa."I've been chainsawing Locusts for years as Marcus (and the other COGs) and for him to get the Play Arts Kai treatment is dope. Square-Enix's figures are highly detailed and accurate. They're also expensive; rightfully so, of course. The Sergeant here is no exception on either point. He looks amazing and is priced at $149.99. Standing just over 11 inches, check out the war hero in all his beefy glory below.[gallery ids="616,617,618,619,620,621,623,624"]From Square-Enix:
