Halo 4 Didact from McFarlane Toys

100,000 years ago, the Didact served as the military leader of the Forerunners, who battled both the ancient humans and the Flood.  Way to go Master Chief!  If it wasn’t for you, the Didact wouldn’t have been released from his prison, and the universe wouldn’t have had to fight the Prometheans.  This new action figure stands nine inches tall with 29 points of articulation and he comes with a special code that releases new content in Halo 4.  He’ll release in September.

Ubisoft and McFarlane Toys will team up to produce new Assassin’s Creed toys and collectibles.  Series 1 will include seven action figures, headlined by Connor.  He will come as two action figures – one in his Assassin’s Creed® III traditional Assassins garb and the second, as Ratonhnhaké:ton in the upcoming “Tyranny of King George” storyline.  Also expect to see Haytham Kenway in the mix.  CEO Todd McFarlane claims in the official press release that the new toys “will include codes that unlock unique content in game – things like new weapons, clothing colors, or other customization options. Features like this reward the hardcore fans who buy the figures, and give collectors some added value.”  Each 6-inch figure will feature 25 points of articulation and come with accessories at a price point between $14.99 and $16.99.  Look for these in October.
