McFarlane continues to milk the Halo: Reach license with the sixth series of figures based off the hit video game released back in September 2010. Marked for release in early 2012, the figures were teased in word form earlier this week on Spawn, and thanks to BigBadToyStore, we've got mock ups of the figures to come. Included in wave 6 are individual packed figures, two-packs, three-packs, and one special box set. 

For all the info on the new Halo toys from McFarlane (and there's a lot), hit the jump!

Let's start with the individual figures in bubble packaging. While a figure has been made for every member of Noble Team, they all have yet to be un-helmeted. Wave 6 completes the un-helmeted Noble Team, with variations of Kat and Jun joining Carter and Jorge in previous waves. Of course, Emile and Noble 6 never show their faces in the game. Continuing, we focus on the on the Covenant, as we get figures of the Brute Major and the Elite Zealot. Making in appearance in the mission Long Night of Solace, we get a figure of the UNSC male Sabre Pilot. The custom Spartans finish out the wave, with the rust Spartan HazOp exclusive to Toys'R'Us, the red Spartan Recon exclusive to Target and the white Spartan JFO exclusive to GameStop.

There are two different two-packs in this wave. The first focuses on the Halo: Reach multi-player playlist Team Objective. The set Team Objectives contains one red Spartan Mark V with Assault Rifle, and for the first time in plastic form, UNSC/Covenant assault bombs and red/blue team flags. The set Headhunter focuses on the Halo: Reach game type. It includes a green Spartan EVA and purple Spartan Commando. Also included for the first time in plastic form are the "Headhunter heads."

The first three-pack of the series focuses on the playlist Invasion, with a red Spartan Grenadier, and a blue Elite General. Accompanying the two mortal enemies are the sizable UNSC/Covenant data cores. The second three-pack once again features the mission Long Night of Solace. Included in the pack are Noble 6, an un-helmeted Jorge and the B.O.B. gold Elite Ranger. Finally, the special box set features a Spartan JFO and one generator, featured in the Firefight playlist.

I'm tempted to get the headhunter set just for the flaming skulls.

No doubt that Transformers Masterpiece figures are popular. Be it from Hasbro or Takara Tomy they have a tendency to sell out pretty quickly as pre-orders, to say nothing of their actual release date. It's pretty common for t...

Custom Made Monday: It's a me, Mario

Well, it's almost time for E3, so I guess Custom Made Monday ought to get with the times and showcase a little bit of gaming-themed customs. Of course, I say a little bit because there's others that draw their inspiration from movies, and yet others from food and piracy. Not the online kind. I'd suggest hopping past the jump to check them out ... because you really can't otherwise, can you?
