2 icons of pop culture come together in the announcement that Microsoft and Todd McFarlane have made a licensing agreement to produce a line of figures based on the Halo3 video game.
At this moment, a selection of five figures and three vehicles are in the lineup. As many geeks know, McFarlane's action figure product line is wrought with popular movie, anime, game icons, and it is arguable that his figures are as popular as his comic book series, "Spawn".
The action figures are extremely detailed in both the design and development to finished product. This very writer used to collect them himself, but as you know when girlfriends become wives, men get their stuff resigned to a closet to collect dust. There is a picture of a prototype MC below as well as the lineup of the 8 figures total following it.
The Line Up Is:
- Master Chief
- Brute Chieftain
- Cortana
- Jackal Sniper
- Grunt 2-pack
The Vehicles Are:
- Warthog
- Ghost
- Brute Chopper
The figures are posted to hit the shelves in the Spring of '08
