3A HALO Thread

[spizzness]

Haha my bad

 

[Glassjaw]

I lol'd

If you'd said the Spartan Recruit however, that would've been another matter entirely!

 

[spizzness]

Haha, well aren't they coming out at the same time? I still REALLY need to get my hands on him somehow. And what's up with the threea forums?? They're gone

 

[Glassjaw]

Yeah but you know that recruit is going to be so much rarer Such a great figure.

As for the forums, I almost didn't catch it because my bookmark was in the Halo section, but they've moved their forums. The new one is
Free forum : World of 3A Legion

 

[spizzness]

Well I'm trying to work something out with another user on here who lives in Japan I believe, and could possibly buy one for me and then I can just paypal him the money back! So that should work hopefully. And DEAR GOD these 3A new forum looks horrible...yikes but oh well!

 

[spizzness]

Anyone know where I can get the exclusive emile at??

Like the art for the box, and love the pictures anubuis.

Surprised to see how weathered these are as used to Hot Toys "shiny" new everything.

 

[spizzness]

Can't stand hottoys shiny-nes!!! Even when they "weather them" they still look to clean and the metal looks glazed. (when they weather they're die cast series, I feel like they do that so when the owner accidentally chips off some paint, it wont look weird. So they add some scratches for you.) The real bummer for me is the 1/6 scale Ironman Mk43's paint looks to glossy compare to their 1/4 scale mk43. They nailed in in 1/4 scale, the paint is flat and looks like real metal

 

[spizzness]

For all the doubters that might still be out there.

The website has a video of him as well. 【视频+图片】3A TOYS《HALO》Master Chief士官长拆盒实拍 | 拆盒网

 

[Jaycepticon]

damn, that's beautiful. Can't wait!

 

[spizzness]

Everything looks great to me. I don't mind a buff looking Master Chief. Everything looks pretty well proportioned. Super hyped for this figure. Do they give out awards for figure of the year?? Because I feel like he'd win. Tired of Hottoys getting the best licensing award (even though they do pump out ironman figures like hot cakes)

 

[epitaph04]

Looks cool. I hope the articulation and accessories arent a massive pain like every 3A figure I've had so far.

 

[skyray24]

Looking good, still looking forward to this, but damn Chiefs carrying an extra few pounds!

 

[spizzness]

Yea I totally forgot how much of apain the weak magnets in the guns can be hope they put some super strong rare earth magnets in there now (especially with that giant sniper the recruit comes with!)

haha he is defintely beefy

 

[skyray24]

Hes not far out now is he?

 

[spizzness]

Nope, end of this month he ships! And Brent posted pictures of the box art )))

Yay!

 

[spizzness]

No longer as minimalistic as the Reach boxes! But still gorgeous. Talked with the artist on instagram. He said it's called "billboarding" when you stack the boxes on top of each other and they create an image. Notice the bottom of the boxes how they have the top part of the helmet. It'll line up when you stack them, But I'm only getting one of each so that wont work for me! But I'm sure it'll look good for the retailers on their shelves
