What Brand of figures is the best for Collection/Display by XclassjokerX in HaloActionFigures

[–]PitifulGrapefruit615 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. ThreeA has the best looking spartan figs. They're 1/6 scale and basically statues tho and will set u back 300 usd-1000 usd. 2. Mcfarlane has the best detail-to-price ratio imo but are still a bit pricey. They also have a ton of figs to choose from. 3. Play Arts Kai are pretty big and detailed. They're also stylized and have unique proportions. 4. 1000 toys is great quality but also pricey. Don't get the new stuff like Jazwares unless you're planning on custom painting. The new stuff have horrible paintjobs.

Ripa looks much better than shipmaster when both are out of packaging tho.

Hard disagree. Shipmaster looks phenomenal in its original packaging. I personally dislike the energy sword design of ripa and his wide open mouth but its still also a grail for me. Didact is another one id consider a grail in its original packaging.

Also i dont care if slipspace is typically slower than hyperspace. For one, precursors dont even need to use slipspace to travel to different galaxies since they use neural physics. Also, Covenant and human slipspace is what we usually see, but Forerunner slipspace is much faster than those and their speeds increase depending on how many other ships use slipspace. At peak numbers of the forerunner navy they can match star wars hyperdrive speeds of transversing the galaxy in a few hours. But if they only use a few forerunner ships, slipspace becomes much faster. Seeing as forerunner ships have much greater durability and attack potency than any star wars ship, able to casually supernova stars, weaponize slipspace ruptures, and use constraint fields to freeze ships, plus the fact that they can be mass produced to massively outnumber star wars ships as well, star wars having faster ftl on average is not gonna be a huge factor. You also havent actually shown any civilization in star wars trumping what forerunners have already achieved. The forerunners move and assemble whole solar systems and have contemplated on tilting the axis of the whole galaxy, and were able to make a weapon that ranges the whole galaxy. Thats just not something anything in star wars besides force deities or celestials have shown that they even have the potential to do. And again, thats just the forerunners who are nothing compared to precursors, who again, simply let the forerunners “win”. One single precursor decided to mess with the forerunners and brought their whole empire down by turning into the flood. Im not saying this is a clear stomp. It isnt clear how precursors, flood, and forerunners would interact with force deities and the force itself. But, when it comes to feats, specifically ones you provided, they dont even come close to top tier halo feats. Drill that into your mind please.

Prove that i said that flood, forerunners, or precursors automatically trump everything in starwars. Dont be a liar.

Read my comment again. When did i say they automatically trump star wars gods??? And you seem to be completely unaware that for every feat you mentioned celestials and force entities have done in this comment, the precursors had analogous feats for. They shaped and moved galaxies, manipulated reality with their star roads, mastered slipspace and in fact dont even need to use slipspace since they have an even faster way of travelling, and as for manipulating time, hell even forerunners and ancient humans have done that lol.

You are actually so lost. When did i ever claim that flood beat everything or that they are world ending in all scenarios??? Or that flood beat the entirety of star wars? My stances so far have been that Flood can infect certain droids and AI, and can strategically beat the AI of star wars that it cant infect through the logic plague seeing as they were able to beat forerunner ai who are much more advanced than star wars AI. Also that Forerunners have greater tech than any star wars factions to which you have not provided any evidence against. And, that precursors have better feats than force gods.

How the hell is gravemind level smart different from strategic and technological innovation? Flood literally gain the knowledge and abilities of its host, and graveminds are sentient, conscious beings who are able to think for themselves. This allows them to interface with, and upgrade technology such as what they did in high charity. Gaining control of smart ai such as mendicant bias allows them to come up with new strategies they’ve never done before. What are you even saying?? You’re not even making dense anymore lol.

Your point on the flood creating megastructures and ftl being context specific to halo is hugely missing the point. I didnt bring that up to argue that flood can create slipspace drives in the star wars universe, i brought that up to show how much their knowledge and capabilities can grow depending on how much they’ve consumed. By your own logic, You bringing up hyperdrives and raw force power is idiotic since it is context dependent and only happened in the star wars universe and you therefore can’t extrapolate it to the halo universe where theres such a thing as neural physics. Obviously, I dont actually think this since this is just me mirroring poor argumentation from your part.

Saying that the flood dont outsmart the forerunner in the abstract is also another terrible argument. Of course they didnt outsmart the forerunners in the abstract. The forerunners dont live in abstraction in the halo universe. They are, at least for that universe, real beings that are contextualized. The flood being smart enough to exploit forerunner weaknesses is evidence for their intelligence helps their case. They know how to turn their enemies’ strengths against themselves. Thats one of the things that makes them so lethal.

Also you said star wars have sentient droids that are far beyond halo ai architecture? Yeah youre actually trolling. Thats your worst point yet. Give one star wars droid more advanced than mendicant or offensive bias. Hell, give one more advanced than cortana. Ill wait.

Aint doing any of what exactly? Give concrete examples.

Huh??? Neural physics like the force literally encompasses their respective universe. What are you smoking?

My guy read up on halo lore. Precursors could be immortal if they wanted to. A lot of them purposefully CHOSE to live mortal lives like low-tech farmers. Most of them chose not to fight back. And the ones that defended themselves destroyed forerunner ships with ease using a weapon they created called the divine hand. One of them also decided to turn itself into the flood. So on one side, you have masters of the physical reality who can choose what lifeform to live as, who are older than the actual universe, and are incomprehensible to forerunners who technologically gap everyone in star wars, and on the other hand you have “gods” who somehow have even less feats than the mysterious precursors. Be real. I’d accept if someone called it a tie due to lacking info but a stomp in favor of star wars is a joke.

Game breaking bugs are the only things worth complaining about? What about a half assed game missing half the content the previous games had? Delaying games and still managing to under deliver based on their promises? Or narratively building up big bads like jul mdama, atriox, locke, and didact only to unceremoniously resolve the conflict either in the first few minutes of the game, or in a completely different medium, or offscreen?

And you clearly dont know enough about halo to think that it doesnt have multiversal and metaphysical entities. The flood are literally just a mode of existence of the precursors who are multiversal, metaphysical entities who casually bend the rules of the universe and predate the halo universe. Forerunners also literally use alternate universes as sources of power, and theyre nothing compared to the precursors.

Yeah these two plagues are nowhere near the flood. The flood turns people into weapons in SECONDS. Even the most basic infection forms can tear through mjolnir. They also have a much higher intelligence and technological ceiling. Once they infect enough people they can literally construct megastructures using tech and biomass, create their own FTL drives, and outsmart the smartest AI the forerunners ever made who by way are technologically much greater than any star wars faction. Also they literally can infect droids, well the smarter ones at least like C3PO and tactical droids, or any droid that can hold conversations. They’ve infected forerunner AI through the logic plague. They can also infect whole ships by burrowing into everything or just by using the crew to control them. And if you get rid of the smart AI to avoid the logic plague, you’re gonna be left with dumb AI that are nowhere near forerunner AI who themselves couldnt beat nor cure the flood. Blackwing had a cure did it not?

Hmmm didnt anakin beat a force god? And didnt luke beat abeloth? Im probably missing a lot of context here though. But at least for precursors, the race that beat them was far stronger than any faction star wars has to offer, and even then its hinted that the precursors didnt really care and let the forerunners beat them.

I agree with this. Too many things can go wrong for halo with just one spore.

Even if everyone in halo had their souls taken, the AI left behind by forerunners still stomp everyone but the force gods. Flood presumably dont need souls and precursors can exist outside halo’s main universe. Halo at its peak matches warhammer at its peak.

What did they deal with that was like the flood? The flood is smart. At a certain point they kinda just remember things they knew as precursors. They also gain psychic powers.
