While the plastic characters Toys For Bob created to populate the world of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure are certainly cute, colorful, and well-made, zero points of articulation makes them less action figure, more tiny statue.

The Killzone series may be mired in darkness and a convoluted narrativeline, but one thing that always keeps me coming back to the gaming experiences is their industrial design.
