Gears Of War Series 5 action figure set featured 4 toys, included was the hugely anticipated, Boomer.

Victor Hoffman – Basically a reuse of the Marcus figure, added grenades to the legs and chest; an entirely new head sculpt as it is the first Hoffman we have seen in the Gears Of War action figures series. Hinge ankles and knees, v-crotch hip, ball jointed waist and shoulders, swivels at biceps and elbows, ball jointed risk – decent articulation enabling you to pull off some good poses with him. Comes solely with the Lancer accessory that can be pegged to his back.

COG Soldier – A new COG soldier released, an upgraded variation of the series 3 soldier. Similar articulation to Hoffman, does however have the addition of t-crotch hinge hips. Accessories include the Gnasher shotgun and lancer; very well made figure worth picking up a few!

Beast Rider Grenadier – Very similar to the Grenadier earlier released, basically a different head with a new helmet. Comes with the Hammerburst 2.0 weapon that is attachable to his back. A great collectors item and relatively cheap if you are looking for a good addition to your locust horde.

Boomer
– Biggest (bulkiest) and possibly the heaviest of all 7 inch figures made thus far, weighting between 1-2 pounds of plastic! Comes with the Boom shotgun, the first time this weapon has been made. Very nicely sculpted and a fantastic paint job also includes soft plastic shoulder pads. Articulation includes ball jointed knees, v-crotch thighs, swivel torso, ball jointed shoulders (good range of motion), swivel biceps, hinge elbows (OK range of motion), ball jointed wrists and swivel neck. Only disappointment being he’s not tall enough, however a very well made figure.
