They only cost five bucks and if you don't claim them, they just kinda go away. Gotta get those numbers up for the press release.

Master Chief

Is it just me, or does that look more like 'Concrete Chief' then the final game iteration (texture-wise)? I like the Grunts, but the feet seem...odd.

Like pirate boots?

 

[Youta Mottenai]

In the Halo Wars gameplay demo, Grunts methane tanks exploded after being hit. Any chance of this be in Halo 3?

It's a fucking 4 inch articulated toy. What do you expect?

 

[Youta Mottenai]

<The avatar change is casual. ONI is not keeping an eye on you. And no, ONI will not comment about peolple that were playing illegal copies and out of the blue decided to move to the Atacama desert.

100%. It's in.

This gonna be awesome. Hit Grunt tank. Explosion. Grenades go off. More explosions!

 

[Wolffen]

Painted toes? But now that you jumped down my throat, I looked at some Grunt pics from Halo 3 and noticed their toes no longer show. So McFarlane just copied what the game looks like now, so my bad.

 

[cherdman]

Keep in mind that these are prototypes. Subject to change and all that.

Easily enough to kill a man.

 

[GodfatherX]

i was at the final round...would have skipped it but i "heard" about the final game so i made it a point to be there

from what i recall the helment was very much osdt like not sure it was exactly the odst helmet though

best part of the event was being upfront roll right next to the 1up guys...seeing 1up staffers [kathleen,ryan, seina] cheer and get freaking hyped for the game really put everything in perspective

 

[Skilotonn]

Thank you Bungie for going with Mc. Farrlane this time - they look badass!

 

[CrunchinJelly]

MC's legs are too long.

Initially I, too, thought he was too skinny. But if you chop the legs off he looks fine, so it's just the legs that are a little too long.

 

[Striker]

I think his torso is a little long, but otherwise it is a good model.

 

[GodfatherX]

agreed, i always disliked joyride's figures...id take mcfarlene with alomost no articulate but great detail over the fisher price joyride figures

What's the deal with unisex Master Chief model? Both in game and marketing/promotional materials.

Is this Microsoft's way of appealing to a larger audience?

 

[Mr Vociferous]

Obviously.

Now for feedback:

Gadfly, are you appealed?

It's turning me off a little.

I rather we had a separate male and female model.

Master Chief is unisex? That manly "Not yet." I heard in Starry Night must have been imagined.

Edit: As for in-game models the girls in the Spartan program didn't have separate armor with cleavage or something. It's a military suit.

Not that I wanted to start a serious discussion but I was not talking about the voice.

Edit: Please DO NOT post that pic with "Running out of things to complain about?" caption.

 

[DrBo42]

You did say marketing and promotional materials. Nothing unisex about that ad.

well, ok. not every marketing and promotional material. I am talking about some of the pictures and action figures that make MC look a little .. feminine.

MC can't be a girl. Think of the teamkilling during PMS.

Those are [I]very[/I] nicely done. When I was scrolling down the page I thought Bungie released a new Master Chief render for a second, until I read they were figurines.

You're entering a very dangerous territory. I wish you luck!

 

[Gadfly]

I can't wait to see some Lego Technic vehicles based on Halo universe.

Not characters, just vehicles.

I don't think it's going to happen though.

only 17 days, 19 hours, 42 minutes until Halo 3!

 

[Gadfly]

In other good news that I doubt nobody cares about, our store is going to open at 7:30 AM on Sept 25th and will carry both regular and limited edition.

A lot easier to convince wife why I need two copies of Halo when they are half priced.
