I finally have this and I can say it’s... fine.
The colour scheme is gorgeous, a wonderful smokey grey and silver palette.
The figures are alright, a bit run of the mill but it was the 2009 line, what were you expecting?
The build itself is alright, a bit stiff and solid but fine, no articulation on the rotors etc, but it still looks good in display, the cockpit piece is cool. I don’t like the odd large but that sticks out the back for stability though, just looks out of place, but it is holding the comically sized gun on.
But obviously, the elephant in the room is the poor part quality. It’s not as bad as people say, but a good few parts of it just up and fall off if you touch them, easily hw worst halo set for that.
It’s not as bad as people say, and it’s a beautiful set, not worthy of a full five stars, but worth so much more than the many one stars it’s been getting. Three stars from me, would buy again!
