First Photos Of McFarlane's Halo Series 3, Update On Statues

I must say that the Hayabusa looks awesome and that the Flood Combat form is wickedly creepy. The Brute Chieftan (Armor Class) has been confirmed through these photos as I've been saying for awhile now. The Brute Captain Major that many were hoping and was originally solicited will be coming later.


Probably the biggest disappointment there is the lack of a Teal Recon figure in that photo. I wish it could be confirmed that it will be available as a regular figure for Series 3 but that's not in the cards right now. It looks like we might have to wait for the river on this one.

Additionally, in regards to the Halo 3 statues/figures that we've been looking into since February there's new news. These have been confirmed to be called the Legendary Collection.

Halo 3 Legendary Collection Statues:
Master Chief
Arbiter
Brute Chieftain (Weapons Class)

They will be unarticulated statues, 7"-9" tall and in a hyper-realistic style. Price points appear to be, for the most part, between $17-$22 and they will be available sometime around November. In other words, just in time for the Holidays. They will feature a new packaging design, however I'm not sure if that means boxset style the way they did the 24 figures last year or a new type of clamshell.

As always, as I get new info I'll pass it along. It's a fantastic time to be a Halo fan.


UPDATE: According to Joe F. at Spawn.com these images came straight from their sales sheets and that the weapons pictured may not be what actually ends up packaged and available at retail. He also said that one figure is missing from the photos, the Elite Combat figure which will be revealed on Spawn.com this Friday.
