>>9671335They were probably trying to focus on that 1/12 scale, which tbhonest they nailed. And indeed joyride was supposed to do the halo 3 line as well, but they lost the license and went bankrupt before they officially released anything. Tho there are some prototypes floating around, such as this one. I was surprised to see there's actually an extremely small community of halo figure/statue/other memorabilia prototype collectors, but they usually keep to themselves and only buy/trade/sell to each other. Very tight lipped where they find their shit. Here's a Flickr page with a bunch of prototypes. While the halo 3 figures look very ghetto and "fake" they were most likely very early and rough mock ups trying to figure stuff out, and considering some of the crazy figures that guy has I'm sure that lends validity to the legitimacy of those figures.
