Exclusive McFarlane Comic-Con Halo Figures

EXCLUSIVE COMIC-CON 'HALO' FIGURES

McFarlane Toys will be offering exclusive Halo figures to the attendees of San Diego’s Comic-Con 2008 (a premier comics and popular arts convention taking place July 24-27). Available only to people who stop by their booth, this $30 two figure set includes an EVA “HellSpartan” and a CQB Active-camouflage Spartan. These promotional items are being limited to only one set per person so if you really want to get your hands on them, you will either need to get your butt to Comic-Con or be prepared to spend a pretty penny, assuming any happen to make their way to eBay. I would recommend actually going to the convention. That way you can see some hot cosplay and get some bad ass toys. That is what I call a win-win situation.

Try to Get a Map With a Mongoose

legendary brawl weekend

Double EXP Weekend is back and feeling a little more generous than usual. Instead of torturing you with its typical actionsack bullshit, this weekend brings you the opportunity to try to get those last few achievements that can only be unlocked during ranked FFA matches. Legendary Brawl (ranked 12-player FFA) is the playlist of choice and will be available until 2:00 am PDT Monday, June 2nd. By the way, if you still need that elusive Mongoose Mowdown, Halopedia has a few helpful hints that are sure to bring you success. “In the matchmaking lobby, ask someone to help you. Also, try to get a map with a mongoose.” I’m pretty sure whoever wrote that is a fucking genius.

Friday Caption Fun, Round 10

halo 3 screenshotIt’s Friday, which means it’s time to slap some silly captions on a random screenshot. First we need to recap last week’s submissions though. Louis Wu said, “I’m guessing the comments section for this one will be pretty R-rated by the time it’s done…” and I am determined to prove him wrong. Some were dirty, a few were downright disgusting, but most of them were fairly tame. Here are my favorites from the clean enough to post pile.

  • “After Red passed out from too many brewski’s on the same night he left his new digital camera lying on the floor next to him – Blue knew exactly what he had to do: embarrass his friend on the internet.” (-S-)
  • “Mother was CQB, father was part Rogue, part Hayabusa. Their kid had one awful armor perm..” (petetheduck)
  • “And this is how Halo Humpdays came to be.” (bvl)
  • “The beginnings of purple team.” (BlueAzure)
  • “When blue saw red choking on a peanut, he decided that this was just too humiliating of a way to die. So he gave him the heimlich maneuver and made it that much worse.” (A Pharmacist)
  • “Sadly this was how red learned the importance of checking your six.” (awesome-o)
  • “It was an effort but the Blue managed to stop the Red from jumping to his death after he discovered he had been put on the: ‘Will never have Recon’ list.” (aussie_spartan)
  • “Luke says goodbye to Frankie, Halo style.” (Mercutio2000)

We Are Dealing with One Dead Halo Player

While this video (titled Halo 3 Homicide Detective) is quite the entertaining watch for any Halo fanatic, the geek in me feels the need to point out that during one scene someone says “throws one of his two frag grenades” while the character is actually throwing a plasma grenade. OMG, f1x y0ur 5h1t C0||363Hum0r. I should also point out that the Master Chief costumes in this video are incredible. I’d totally hit it. And that goes for both of them.
