Description
Little known fact about Zeno: he does not like it when there are Sangheili obviously taller than him. It's...a side effect of back when Zeno was undisputedly the tallest Sangheili around. Of course that changed when Thel got an official height based on the new 7'4" average height (7'10"). Even when I scaled Thel up to the original 8'6" average, he ended up taller then Zeno (9' to Zeno's 8'11" in 8'6" scale). Needless to say, Zeno wasn't happy at all....Anyway, I got some new figures from just released Reach line. I heard the figures were slightly bigger then the Halo 3 line figs, so I wanted to put the Halo 3 Sangheili next to the Reach ones.
Slightly is an understatement, IMO. The size difference is extremely obvious. The spartan I got is at least a half inch taller than the Halo 3 MC....
That said, if/when they do a SpecOps figure I am going to customize that one into Zeno's colors. Maybe that will make him feel better....

Aw poor Zeno is mad that he isn't the tallest anymore, and the ultra's paint job just looks awfully horrible. -Looks at the Reach Minor's arm- Wtf, arms don't bend that way normally!
Reaver: Not unless you break them that way, and they heal.
Me: -.-

Lol. XD

I used to be the tallest girl in my classroom when I was in primary school. Now in college I'm one of the shortest people in my classroom. I find myself wishing quite often that I was taller.

I copied the image and pasted it in MS paint. That fixed the problem. Lol, "*sniff* Whas it something I said?" fell in love with that line.

Ha ha, poor Zeno!
They really are taller/bigger though, quite noticably so. And very pretty, espescially the tan-armour one, lucky you to own him.

Aye, pretty, but some things annoy the heck out of me about them though. For instance, what is up with the wrist joint being a third of the way down the forearm? Plus the mandible guards on the minor don't line up well with the mandibles on mine. Also, they are just as bad, if not worse, about staying upright than the Halo 3 ones.

Lol, yeah I heard about the standing problem. No wonder really since their feet and soles are rather roundish and quite tiny as well. (Maybe that's why the Arbiter has such GIANT hooves on Halo 2???)
Well, I still think they're pretty. I grew up with the first generation of Transformers toys back in the 1980s, and they were so ugly you wouldn't beleive it, compared to today's marvels of figures.

Well Zeno's obviously never met my OC's daughter before (9 feet, eight inches)

Zeno: ....well, not into women anyway....

Well, she shows off to you not because she's concerned with your sexual orientation; she's heard allot of how you don't deal well with people taller than you.

Zeno: *grumble* one of those types that like to rub it in then...

Mioni: I only do it to people who act like children over the fact; otherwise I'm fair about it. If anything it's annoying to be an abnormally tall female; what with all the looks and unaccommodating clothing sizes.

Looks good. Real pain cos of the size difference...I have several grunts, ODSTS, and elites and I would love to mix all the figures together to make more of an army...however because I'm so dayum analytical an obvious size diffefnece would mean I couldnt even bring myself to put them togetehr in a set up :L

hmmm wont load, but from what I can see in the thumbnail, they are definitely bigger...would you say about the size of the Ripa figure or bigger?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Yeah, DA is being a pita, use the Download button, that worked (at least for me).
The new Sangheili are even bigger than Ripa.

You haven't painted these yet I take it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nope, these I am not going to paint. The specOps one, if one is ever released, I will though.

well then I'm disappointing yet again with McFarlane....they need to get people with better painting skills for their fucking toy lines!
...sorry...being an advide toy collector kinda has its down sides...
On the other hand the detail is pretty impressive!

The ultra does look like he's been through a mud pit kind of. Don't know why they painted him like that. I still can't get over the Sangheili's wrist though...they look so wrong (our wrists don't bend a third of the way down the forearm!).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dunno why McFarlane does half the things it does, the paint job on it is pretty sloppy looking =[
The fuck? ...I just noticed that =/

The wrist thing I noticed the very first time they showed the prototypes of them.

~nods~ not to long ago it was broken links and constant refreshing just to a page to load =/
WOW....nice to know McFarlane isn't skimping out anymore...and here I had lost complete faith....still think DC direct or NECA should have the license
