Gears of War dolls of masculinity available spring '08

It's time to play out your own Emergence Day with the first wave of Gears of War action figures featuring Marcus Fenix, Augustus Cole and the Locust Drone -- your old He-Man figures are going to have to substitute for the rest of the cast. The figures will be available "late spring of 2008" and the second wave of dolls will crawl out "late 2008."

The figures will be available at Hot Topic, FYE, comic book shops and other specialty stores. There's no word yet currently on price or what the second batch of characters will be, but it seems kind of unfair for Marcus to be without his Dom for an extended period of time (guess Man-At-Arms will have to do for the meantime).

Dolls of masculinity? Does that even make sense?

The capper would be to have Marcus talk like Eric Cartman when you squeeze his balls. Put him on Youtube in a freeze frame South Park skit like they did with Master Chief-hilarioos! hahaha.

But... I can't quit you Dom!

That's bullshit that they aren't releasing Dom in the first series. I guess political correctness and affirmative action have reached their claws into the action figure business as well.

Ummm, what? Dom is hispanic, I don't see what political correctness or affirmative action have to do with anything.

The Fuzz 53 @ Jan 18th 2008 2:21PM

Why else would they release Cole before Dom?

jmood88 @ Jan 18th 2008 3:30PM

Because he's a better character? Dom was pointless in the game unless you like your teammate dying and getting in your way. Anyway, if it was about political correctness and affirmative action then why would they leave someone out? You obviously have no idea what you're talking about.
