Going from left to right, Garrus, then Tali, then Wrex.

Garrus is Turian
Tali is Quarian
Wrex is Krogan

All part of the Mass Effect games. Garrus and Tali can become part of your crew in ME 1-3, with Wrex being crew in 1, and then not crew but still in a supporting role in 2 and 3.

The figures themselves are the newest series from Dark Horse. There is also a Liara one (they screwed up the face, it just feels off) and then they have Jack and Legion coming in Oct (both look like they will be awesome) and then the default male and female Shep coming in 2026, but those got some messed up facial issues like Liara so kind of meh on them.

Probably the best game of that time, in that time I still load up the whole series once a year and play through it

True story: the voice actor for Garrus is also the main "computer" voice from The Division.

True story: the voice actress for Femshep is Canadian and has tons an absolute crap ton of stuff. Both in animation and video games, starting all the way back in 1994 with Quest for Glory 4, Metal Gear Solid 2, KOTOR, BioShock Infinite, and many many more. And according to wikipedia "In 2013, she was recognized by Guinness World Records as "the most prolific video game voice actor (female)"

Really so many good VA's in the Mass Effect series.

One warning of a DIY install. Sometimes the wings or whatever you want to call them are a little bit out of alignment and require a bit of brute force to line up. Get one side started but keep it really loose. Can use a car jack to help lift it if doing it solo. Once one side has at least 2 spaces out bolts started a few turns then work on the other side don't snug it up right away. Once all bolts are started a little then can start tightening things.

Holy balls it was a pita. For our car you have to remove the muffler, and of course a exhaust bolt breaks while doing so and yeah takes some massaging to get it in place!

I'm not much of a figure guy, but those look really good. I have 1 large "Goblin Slayer" one I picked up as I'm debating getting back into over the top Halloween costumes and thought it'd be a fun idea to build potentially.

Stainless griddle insert from Napoleon for my very dirty Prestige Pro 500 grill. the only complaint is that there doesn't seem an obvious way to attach a foil pan as a grease trap to the underside of the drains at the back. I think I can likely just sit a couple shallow foil tins under them on top of the deflector plates that sit over the burners and under the griddle/grates normally.

I'll likely have two 'little griddles' (one large, one small) for sale soon since this is replacing them on the Edmonton Kijiji
