Due to the success of the Gears of War video game, Epic games teamed up with NECA to create a series of highly detailed figures based upon characters and enemies from the series. They released ten series, as well as two series of figures available only at Toys R Us stores. In 2016, McFarlane Toys secured the rights to create future Gears of War figures.

Box Art[]

The first two series feature just the "Gears of War" graphic along the top of their box art, whereas series three to six feature "Gears of War 2" along the top of their box art. This was due to the fact that when series one was released, Gears of War 2 had not yet hit retail shelves. The "Gears of War 3" graphic appears on figures from series seven to nine with the "Gears of War Judgment" graphic being present on Series ten.

Where to Buy[]

US- Gamestop, Online Retailers, Toys R Us

Special Edition[]

Special edition figures have been released since the figure ranges release. They feature minor characters and exclusive designs of existing ones. Many of these special editions are released at the San Diego Comic Con.

Special Multi-Packs[]

During 2009 three two pack figures were released outside of the series launches. Two were Toys R Us exclusives and contained repackaged figures from earlier waves, whilst the third contained General RAAM and Lieutenant Kim. A Locust Hive Pack was also released in 2009, which contained four Locust with interchangeable heads.

In 2011, just before the release of Gears of War 3, a special Toys R Us exclusive was released, which featured Marcus Fenix and a Locust Grunt.

Gears of War 4[]

In 2016, McFarlane Toys secured the rights to produce Gears of War figures from NECA. McFarlane Toys released a series of figures from Gears of War 4.

Batsu Figures[]

In Japanese, the symbol "batsu," like the English 'X' is used to show something wrong. Like when you get a strike on Family Feud, that's a batsu. For NECA, it's a whole new way of experiencing some of your favorite characters and lines, and we're starting with the three most popular Gears of War combatants in limited production runs (translation: get 'em while you can).

The highly stylized Batsu versions of Dom, Marcus and The Locust each stand over 5" tall, are poseable at the neck and shoulders and designed with urban vinyl in mind. They also have the Lancer accessory, and you'll know them when you see them because of the window box packaging.
