Jace Stratton SDCC Action Figure Review

Officially announced to be available for pre-order on the 4th of August was the Jace Stratton SDCC action figure from NECA. Jace appears in many of the comic books as Gears fans will know, however he has been given a special release for Gears Of War 3 in honour of his inclusion into the upcoming, final video game. The youngest Delta Squad member, who he was raised by after the the Locust slaughtered his parents.

To the dismay of some fans, NECA have decided to go with the Marcus mould for his body, similar to what we saw with the Hoffman figure. Jace does however come with as you would expect, an entirely new facial sculpt – which I’ll admit is very impressive!

The packaging is also a nice addition to this figure, along with the original clamshell packaging, Jace receives a very nice translucent bloody red Crimson Omen backdrop, reminiscent of when you’re about to do in the game. Jace comes packed with the standard COG Lancer Rifle and a Gnasher Shotgun.

As mentioned, Jace has been heavily based on the Marcus mould, which makes sense as he IS a limited addition and entirely new moulds cost money. Nonetheless, he looks very bad ass and is a worthy addition to any Gears of War collection.
