All New "Series 3" NECA Gears of War Figures Revealed

All New "Series 3" NECA Gears of War Figures Revealed

NECA has announced all new Gears of War action figures for 2009. The company is finishing off Series 2 with a “Marcus vs Locust” 2-pack. Recreating a scene of actual game-play, Marcus chainsaws his way through a Locust drone, resulting in some terrific gore.

Series 3 kicks off with an all new 12” Marcus Fenix with light-up armor. Marcus also features a COG pistol and Lancer. His head sculpt has been redesigned to reflect his appearance in the Gears of War 2 video game. Flipping a switch on his back causes his armor to light up blue just like in the game.

Also coming down the pike is the all new series 3 7” Assortment. This assortment features an all new Marcus as he appeared in the Gears of War 2 video game, an all new COG Soldier, two new Locust drones, and a new Theron Palace Guard. All figures (with the Theron Guard exception) now have the ability to peg an extra weapon to their backs.
