This is a reblog from Spartan Games website, with some commentary by me at the end of the article): 

Spartan Games Creative Director Neil Fawcett and 343 Industries’ Kenneth Peters provide some more details on the exciting release of the UNSC Punic-class Supercarrier and Covenant Assault Carrier (CAS).

First up is Kenneth Peters from 343 Industries, one of the people tasked with helping Spartan Games keep its Halo tabletop games accurate to canon. Kenneth sets the scene for where these exciting new models fit into the Halo Universe.

CAS ASSAULT CARRIER
Assault carriers are monumental symbols of Covenant power, and among the deadliest implements wielded by the Prophets in their war against humanity. Each assault carrier is a potent instrument of conversion and compliance, capable of deploying thousands of troops and numerous fighter craft, backed by an array of devastating energy projectors that can burn entire continents to ash. A single CAS is sufficient to quell all but the most pernicious heresy, rebellion, or parasite outbreak. Colossally expensive to construct and few in number, the rare loss of an assault carrier is mourned by the entire Covenant.

Several listings on Amazon for Halo shirts have been spotted. Here are just a few for you to see.

The first one is called “We are in your base”. The second one, seen here in blue, can also be had in grey, green and red.

You can find these are more on Amazon HERE.

I recently found the site gamer-heaven.net. I saw that it was in the UK. Immediately I knew I had to post the info on the blog. After a couple of delays though…I now have that info for you.

Bear in mind that I’ve not bought from this site, so I can not endorse it fully. I’m just making you aware of it, in case you are having a hard time finding Halo merchandise in the UK, or shipping is killing your budget from overseas orders.

Currently, they are having a sale on some of the Halo stuff. So if you want to save even more, check them out.

Here are just some of the Halo products they carry:

I haven’t seen some of these things ANYWHERE. So snag them up UK fans!

If this blog post helped you find Halo merchandise you wanted or didn’t know about, let me know. It’s nice knowing that I’m helping fellow Halo fans.

I reported back in early July about this new apparel licensee of Halo.

EB Games (of Australia) has a listing for a Halo edition of Monopoly. It’s up for pre-order now and will sell for $68 Aussie dollars. This will release in Nov this year. It’s also listed as being exclusive to EB Games. (The image above is likely not the final box version.)

We in the states know that EB Games and Gamestop are one in the same now. I did a little looking around and couldn’t find a listing for this anywhere else but in Australia.

I do hope this comes to the rest of the world. I’d like to play this. I wonder what would be used for houses though, or if they will still be the same as the standard game??

Would you buy this if it came to a store near you?

Let me know, reply below.

This looks like an epic table top game. I’ve been a fan of minis games like this for years. I’m VERY happy that Spartan Games got the license for making this game and worked with 343 to bring us some great mini space ships.

Halo gear is coming soon to Musterbrand.

Here’s what we know will be coming out:  Continue reading →

Before I start this review, I need to thank Bandai for being generous in sending me this set. This is a pre-production set, meaning, it’s one of the ones made before mass production begins. You can tell by the sticker in the upper right corner of the front of the box. I’m told that means ‘sample’ in Japanese.

Further thanks are due as I was told I am the first ‘press’ person to receive this set and noone will get it for roughly a month’s time. So this is the exclusive review that you can not find on any other site. (Please see statement at end of article).

Let’s get started with the review! Continue reading →

Podtacular tweeted out the link to this vid. It’s pretty cool and I knew I just had to share it.
