Shown were figures loose and packaged of Noble Team's Emile, Jorge and a Noble Six, as well as a two-pack featuring a Mark V Spartan in white armor and sleek new Elite Ultra. Read our story HERE on the complete rundown of Halo:Reach action figures fans can expect this Fall.
Even more exciting was the two new Halo: Reach vehicles on display: The eagerily anticipated UNSC Warthog and Covenant Ghost. Soon Halo fans will able to stage their own full-scale action figure wars!
Comic-Con attendees unable to wait until September were treated to an awesome show exclusive: Noble Seven. Sold for $20 at Entertainment Earth's booth, the Toys"R"Us exclusive figure was an excellent preview of what fans can expect with the full line.
Aside from a cool new armored look, Noble Seven sports the most impressive deco seen on a Halo figure yet. Worn steel paint apps on the figure's arms and legs contrast nicely with the blue color scheme, itself chipped and dinged with hyper realism. Crisp micro logos and an array of ammo pouches, grenades and new Assault Rifle further lend character to this figure. While color varaints will still be seen in the Halo: Reach series, the amount of personalization added to each Spartan is very refreshing.
