One of the great things about the FN line is that it does a pretty darn good job capturing the look of the property. It also is very useful to supplementing other lines. I have seen customizers very successfully use parts with Joes, Marauder, and Boss Fight. It really straddles that line between a cartoonish line and a more realistic line. And I agree with I think it was Ozy - the HALO line has the potential to be epic.

I am very excited to get to get the Halo figures and vehicles and see where that line goes.

I picked up three of the llamas for $5 each at WM today. A double of Dark Voyager and the Skull Ranger and Warpaint sets which I didn’t have. I’ve got all of the Llamas now save for the new one with the pool toy guy. The Llamas are a good deal even at full price but that is the most bullshit wasteful packaging I have ever seen. I get why they did it and it’s cool... but five pounds of confetti and individually wrapped accessories is super unnecessary.
I also picked up another Raven and threw his hands and lower legs/feet on Black Knight and it looks 100x better this way.

The Halo line looks promising, but I would just caution about drawing too direct a line of expectations from the Fortnite line to it.
Apparently, the Jazwares Fortnite team in Florida are not involved with the Halo line, which is the work of another team in California at subsidiary Wicked Cool Toys. One would hope they're getting the full benefit of the resources and design innovations achieved by the Fortnite team, but who knows, with corporate silos and all that. |

Do we know what’s in the new Jumbo Llama yet? Hopefully the replacement will be more conscientiously packaged.
Here’s my improved Black Knight:

Good thing they are meant for kids and not your age group. I love the llamas and had a lot of fun with the confetti.

8-Ball vs Scratch. Kevin the Cube is what the parts build.
