===Features===
McFarlane Toys is notable for the amount of detail their figures have to in-game characters. However, it has been noted that the figures are very fragile; being prone to breaking within a few days of purchase. There have been multiple inaccuracies in marketing the figures (i.e: photos of figures have wrong accessories; incorrect naming; etc.).
 
===Halo Points===
