3A HALO Thread

It's neat but not sure it's really worth paying upfront for it. Figures doesn't ship out until 2nd Q of 2015.

I would buy it through bamba if I could somehow score it with the 15% but looks like only 3A members can do that.

I could help you out but not sure how I could send it to you afterwards? I'm sure there are a few 3A members on here from the US who could help you out.

You don't like that rifle? I think it looks great and you get free shipping anyways.

I agree with Holo, it looks good and I have no issue with it. For me though, MC would always be displayed with the BR as that's how I remember him from my time playing the games.

I also loathe paying up front for collectibles, it makes the wait much more brutal for me personally so I avoid it at all costs.

I prefer to pay upfront when I can so I know its done and paid for and not worry about it until it arrives.

PO is up at BBTS at a much more attractive price $214.99

1/6 Scale Halo Figure - Master Chief - Halo Figures

 

[Solidus]

I just want this to go on SSC so I can use my reward points!

 

[CollectorGuy]

I think I want this but not sure how it will conflict with my HT stuff or how that rubber under suit will be

 

[SurlyJ]

I think this looks pretty good. Will certainly order at bbts. Doubt I'll care enough about the bambaland ex to drop $240 on it right now.

 

[CollectorGuy]

can someone who owns the other 3a halo figures (emile, carter,etc) how is the rubber on those figures?

There's no comparison.

The older figures and this one are different bodysuits so no one can say how good the chief, recruit or Thorne are.

If you insist an answer then the carter and Emile rubbers are fine. They are on mine. I keep my figures away from sunlight and try avoid any contact with moisture in the air. Etc.

@CollectorGuy - I agree with Chockles - the rubber undersuits are fine on my Carter and Emile so far.

Also, it appears I was mistaken - there is no separate Spartan Mk. VI figure. That line was just a reference to Master Chief's armor. Whoops.

well im just nervous about leaving rubber in poses for long period causing dmg, like the elbow for instance.

On the 3A forum:

Q: Gregory, is the body and rubber suit going to be the same as previous Halo figures?

A: Similar materials yeah. I know the engineers were working hard on figuring out how to better layer the soft vinyl material for increased range in articulation on the limbs

1/6 Scale Halo Figure - Master Chief - Halo Figures

Thanks. Ordered it through BBTS. Could care less about the Lightrifle. In the process of 3D modeling the magnum in 1/6 form and getting that out by the time this starts shipping. Might do the BR as well.

EDIT: Double post

I just hope they won't be using the same rubber as the one that came fitted to their recent iron man figures.

There have been cracking, moisture, splitting whatever you want to call it already not long out of the box from just slight bending.
Possibly why the 3AA space girl also got delayed as well due to knee problems on the rubber.

Isn't the Koto one 1/6?
I have those in the holsters of a couple of my figures. Might be easier to just cast those.

Are you talking about the MC ARTFX Statue? I thought that one only came with the BR, AR and a grenade? I was thinking about just somehow picking up the BR from that statue and casting that but the statue hasn't released yet.

Which one has the pistol?

This one.
I have it, but i removed the pistols from the Chief's hands.
I can take pics of the guns if you like.

Great concept as usual buddy

I'm confused though - doesn't the normal firgure release come with a BR? He's pictured holding one, or is that a different rifle altogether?

I really need to sharpen up my Halo MC info

Thanks. I might look into seeing if I can get a hold of the pistol by itself to cast it. Might just do that for the BR instead since that's a more complicated gun.

Is that statue in 1/6 scale? I know the H4 one is supposedly in 1/6.

The 3A MC only comes with the Assault Rifle, Knife, Railgun and the Bamba Exclusive Light Rifle. It's missing two of his key weapons which is the magnum and BR. And since they're doing the Elite, I imagine we'll get an energy sword and Plasma Rifle with that one.
