The Evolution of the Master Chief armor for XBOX Live Avatars

For several years now we’ve been able to outfit our avatars with a myriad of costumes and clothing to our desire. Halo came a little late to the party, but it came with a lot of goodies. Here is a brief look at Master Chief’s armor as it came out for the Avatar Marketplace.

The the left you see a mutliplayer Master Chief. For whatever reason XBL decided to go with silver visors instead of the regular gold. Would have made more sense to go with gold, IMO. In the middle is Master Chief from Halo CE: Anniversary. Finally to date, we have the Halo 4 version.

As you can see with each iteration, the armor has changed significantly. I like each version for different reason. The left (other than the visor color) is what I’ve known the longest. The middle harkens back to the original and that helmet looks “meaner.” The right is the new look. The armor is darker in color, so too the visor. I’m more and more liking the new armor.

Now here’s hoping the McFarlane makes each as avatar mini-figures like they are with some of the other Halo related stuff.
