Preview of McFarlane Halo Avatar minifigs series 2

Text taken from McFarlane:

The second series of Halo Avatars are invading stores this month! Based on the stylized representations of the Halo characters that are available on the Xbox 360 console, these little guys from the Halo universe are ready to help save the day!

From Halo-themed t-shirts, to Spartan helmets, to full suits of character armor, gamers can make their avatars look like true Halo fans, or even characters from the Halo universe. To represent the customization options available to online avatars, McFarlane Toys’ avatar figures feature interchangeable heads, torsos, and legs. Collectors can mix and match pieces to create their own custom avatar figure, much like they can with their online avatar.

In addition to characters and apparel, Halo Avatars series 2 also includes a “prop” items, the ultra-rare Avatar Banshee. Don’t think it will be that easy to find your favorite avatar, because each figure comes disassembled and randomly packaged in a small “blind” foil bag.

The hunt for Halo Avatars Series 2 figures this February at Gamestop, Target, Toys R Us, Wal-Mart – Canada, Blockbuster – Mexico, Toys R Us – Canada, Fred Meyer, Kroger, HEB, F.Y.E, local comic book stores, and other retailers nationwide.

Wow, I’m looking forward to these. They are quite affordable at about $3 each. Now trying to get them all will be the issue. The vehicle ones are rare and the gold minifigs are highly desired. I’m surprised AND very happy that McFarlane is making Emile. Here’s hoping they also make the rest of Noble Squad including the default Noble 6.
