3A HALO Thread

[Hologram AI]

Q: Speaking about future HALO releases, please do ODST or a UNSC Marine! Are they in your plans?

A: If you guys support the line, il make them, these guys are extremely expensive to make, and when we offer them all the money has been spent on dev on moles, so we have to be cautious etc. I personally want a ODST!

 

[Chockles]

As long as the quality is there, I'm sure we will all support the series. Bring on MC this month and the Spartan next month. After that, do some enemies.

If they don't blow it with Chief, I'll support the hell out of this line.

 

[HotBallsJohnson]

Yeah for real as long as the quality gets a little better in the legs, LED/panel placement, and magnets this'll be a slam dunk grail series. A perfectly done masterchief will guarantee this line's success, just can't be too fragile like carter is and emile to a degree with his canisters and grenades. An ODST would be baller too especially enticing if it's a little cheaper but again, quality first I think we'd all agree.

Someone get on the line with Ash and tell him YES YES YES

I'm sorry fellas, but I just want Master Chief...

No need to be sorry. Most of us wants MC. Lol. If that's all you want, then you'll save a lot of money. Haha if the rest are good, I don't know if I can stop myself.

Any news wether or not they fixed Chiefs arms?

I have only been collecting for a couple of years but this is the worst pre-marketing of a figure I have ever seen.

I want MC but HALO 3 armour not HALO 4/5 armour.

As for ODST Oh Hell Yes and TBH would have thought that should have been the best option to start from, as a sure fire winner. Marines would be awesome BUT which ones? Partial to the HALO 3 armour over all the others. However Reach onwards does make sense and add the ODST is modular to that in some respect.

Think with this line will be interesting and great to see Covernant will be coming. Now what about Forerunner technology?

Same, that's my most wanted armor.

I agree. They seem to be more focused on Ash's designer figures.

 

[user 19388]

gotta have faith and if it isnt up to par, shame on them.

According to 3A's latest schedule, Master Chief is postponed to October, and Spartan moved up to this month. Considering that they are both at the end of the list of each month, I won't be surprised if Spartan actually comes up in October and MC in November.

SEPTEMBER:
COWGIRL BOUNTY HUNTER PRUDENCE PASCHA - Sept 26th
MIGHTY SQUARES - Sept 28th
HALO SPARTAN

OCTOBER:
10” LITTLE SHADOW
DOCTOR DOOM
ARCHER TK - TKlub #2
6TH TK
IRIMI TQ’S - TKlub #3
HALO MASTER CHIEF

NOVEMBER:
MEGAZOMB
ON THE RUN TOMMY
ISOBELLE CAT and JJ McGEE
TK HUNTER
GIRL R/C

DECEMBER:
WWR BIRDCAGE 1/6th

Yeah. Since Spartan doesn't even have a date and it's close to end of the month. Wouldn't be surprised this gets pushed back as well.

I'm looking forward to buying the Neca 18inch MC as well. That would be three figures around the same time. $$$$

Wonder how long they'll be pushing this back. My money will likely be going to NECA. Their version looks stunning.

"Wonder how long they'll be pushing this back. My money will likely be going to NECA. Their version looks stunning."

This is everything wrong with 3A. They can't keep a schedule to save their lives. I don't care how good your figures are I'm not waiting 2 yrs for it to ship. The market for their Halo figures is 10x larger than Ash's 'designer' priorities and yet it's still just an afterthought to them. When they keep misleading their fans about release dates and make delay after delay of course everyone will flock to alternatives like NECA, and rightfully so. NECA's chief looks badass. And, take notes 3A, NECA actually held to schedule, give or take a month. With 3A it's give or take a year, provided they're not sidetracked by some niche anime project that appeals to less than 10 people.

Not to mention, 3A's marketing is abysmal, if you could even call it marketing. Their chief and halo 4 spartan, as well as other prototypes like Jorge, have premiered at multiple conventions. Where are the pics?!! I dare you to search google to find them yourself. It's like they put a gag order out.

Way to keep your fans in the loop 3A! Too much to throw a pic up on your website?

Agreed, 3A is a terrible company, unless youre in some niche inner circle then you get absolutely no info from them, I guess they just dont want to succeed

 

[HotBallsJohnson]

Blows my mind, barely a week ago (25 of september) they said a spartan was estimated to be announced for preorder in september so should we be expecting it tonight? How could the date be up in the air if it was announced FIVE DAYS AGO.

 

[Chockles]

Such a mess. If my memory serves me correct. It was last year 3rd quarter that Chief was meant for preorder. Then he was pushed back for December and then this summer. Finally he was meant for sept this month and then swapped around with Spartan for oct. It's oct now so does that mean Spartan gets pushed to oct and chief to nov? Haha

Damn, 3A is all over the place with this. I mean, it's been nearly a year since we saw Chief and still no pre-order. I guess it's better than Arkham City Batman (damn, that was a loooooong wait) but this doesn't say much. Also, am I the only one around here who prefers the look from 4 to the one from 3? TBH, the only things I'd buy from this line are H4 Chief and Cortana and maybe the Arbiter and an Elite. The characters are cool and all but now that HT is pumping out SW and SS Marvel figs (plus a Doctor every year or so) I won't have any room fot these.

-Kostis, who still laments the loss of 3A Spawn figs.....
