MCFARLANE HALO 3 SERIES 1 SET OF 6 FIGURES

Here's the lineup: 

• MASTER CHIEF -- The protagonist of the Halo series stands at 5 inches tall, and has more than 18 points of articulation. Equipped with his trademark assault rifle, Master Chief's mission is to protect Earth against the Covenant, an alien empire threatening the world in the 26th century. Biological and cybernetic enhancements and rigorous military training have resulted in Master Chief's unquestioned status as the finest soldier mankind has ever produced.

• BRUTE CHIEFTAIN -- The highest rank in the Brute hierarchy is the Chieftain, whose articulated figure is the tallest of the series at 6 inches. Belonging to the Covenant, the Brute Chieftain carries the gravity hammer, a close-range weapon with the ability to alter gravity at a local level and crush his enemies and surroundings.

• CORTANA -- Developed by the United Nations Space Command (UNSC), Cortana is a smart A.I. with the ability to project herself as a holographic image and be transferred between computer systems, including the cybernetic armor of Master Chief. This figure's base features an LED light that illuminates her 4.5 inch-tall figure.

• JACKAL SNIPER -- To the benefit of the Covenant, Jackal Snipers have incredibly sharp reflexes and deadly aim. Standing at 5 inches, the Jackal Sniper is equipped with its signature beam rifle, which has the ability for long range shooting and a high degree of damage.

• SPARTAN WHITE WITH MJOLNIR MARK VI ARMOR -- Upon arrival at Cairo station, the Master Chief's heavily damaged Mark V suit was replaced with a Mark VI. This armor was slimmed down even more to increase movement. Much like the Master Chief figure, all of the Spartan figures will be 5 inches tall, with more than 18 points of articulation. Each figure will come with an assault rifle and grenade accessories, which can be hand-held or stored on the figure's back or leg.

• GRUNT -- At 4.5 inches tall, the Grunt is a menace to the human race, and represents the vast majority of the Covenant infantry. The Grunts are the lowest tier of the Covenant hierarchy, and move in packs. They are expected to unquestioningly obey the commands of their Brute commanders. Outfitted with weapons including the Plasma Pistol and Needler, the Grunt may not seem much more than cannon fodder, but in groups, they can be deadly.
