Legendary comic book and toy creator Todd McFarlane announced today that his company, McFarlane Toys has partnered with one of the gaming industry's hottest properties, Gears of War, to produce a line of highly collectible action figures. Known for its gritty, gory, hyper realistic gameplay, Microsoft's Gears of War has been an Xbox staple for nearly a decade. The franchise revolutionized cover-based combat, and drew millions of Xbox Live users in with its addictive multiplayer. One of the most anticipated video games of the year, Gears of War 4 is slated to release Holiday 2016, exclusively on Xbox One.
McFarlane Toys is well known for producing excellent figures
in the gaming genre, and currently produce and hold the action figure license

average of fifteen points of articulation for incredible poses and play action

the same meticulous level of detail that McFarlane has become known for over
the last two decades.

big dynamic personalities." said Todd
