Baird never got the respect he deserved. The wisecracking engineer of Kilo Squad spent three games being the smartest person in the room while everyone else got the glory, and Gears of War: Judgment finally put him front and center. The Gears of War: Judgment Kilo Squad Edition on Xbox 360 honors that moment with an 18cm Baird figure featuring over 30 points of articulation, the kind of detail that makes you appreciate just how much personality they packed into a guy wearing 200 pounds of COG armor.

The Cog Tag Necklace from the Coalition of Ordered Governments is the sort of in-universe prop that feels authentic rather than gimmicky, a wearable piece of Sera's war-torn history. You're also getting the Hammerburst DLC, a standard issue Locust Army assault rifle for multiplayer, the Emergence Day young Marcus skin, and a digital copy of the original Gears of War to remind you where it all started. The 360 era was when Gears defined what a console exclusive could be, and the Kilo Squad Edition carries that weight.

The figure alone is a centerpiece, but it's the full package that tells the story. This is the prequel chapter of one of gaming's most iconic franchises, given the collector's treatment it earned.
