Gears of War series 2 action figures are looking ugly (in a good way) photo

Gears of War characters are all obscenely unattractive people, to the point where if I'd have to choose between shagging Marcus Fenix or one of his locust enemies, I'd be hard pressed to decide which is the more desirable. Still, as unlikely as it is, they make some hot looking toys, and the second series of GoW action figures have been revealed.

The new figures portray Dominic Santiago, Damon Baird and two Theron Guards. There is also a new Marcus Fenix figure, just in case one wasn't enough for you. They look pretty well made as you'd expect, and with the Theron being my multiplayer character of choice, I may just put down a few quid for one.

You can check them all out here. What do you make of the little buggers?

Nice...but I'm not paying $18 (the pricepoint I've seen for gears figures locally) for a hunk of plastic that does nothing.
