As expected, McFarlane Toys has announced that they also have the license for the upcoming real-time strategy prequel to the Halo Trilogy known as Halo Wars. Set for a Spring 2009 release, the game will find itself a bit of licensed merchandise set for a March 2009 with the first series of Halo Wars figure.

This batch of McFarlane figures will be aboue 2.5 inches tall and feature detailed sculpts and minimal articulation (waist only). The initial wave is focused on army building with 3 figures to a pack, similar to the game itself as you raise an army to crush your enemy.
