Halo ActionClix
eMouse noticed that WizKids Games has announced a new collectable miniatures game called Halo ActionClix. (They already make HeroClix and HorrorClix.) There will be more than 80 unique miniature figures from the Halo universe - which will include 'preview content from Halo 3'. Release date is set for September 2007 (which might imply, as Stuntmutt pointed out, that the release date for Halo 3 will be LATER than that - otherwise, it wouldn't be 'preview content', would it?). More details can be found on the WizKidz website. (Louis Wu 17:55:27 UTC) (permalink)
Pvt. L.L. Church
Luke McKay has whipped up another Halo-related sketch - it's a helmetless version of Private Church. Check it out in his HBO gallery! (Louis Wu 17:37:43 UTC) (permalink)
Rule Of How Many?
The Rule of 3 route for getting into the Halo 3 beta kicked off yesterday - but there are still a few parts that are unclear, to most fans. Stuntmutt's take on the whole mess can be seen in today's One One Se7en. (Louis Wu 15:10:05 UTC) (permalink)
New Halo Figures - Coming Soon
We got an interesting press release this morning - Kotobukiya, long known for making high-quality vinyl action figures, is getting into the Halo game. They will be releasing a series of 12" figures from Halo 1, 2, and 3 over the coming year. Folks visiting Toy Fair 2007 at the end of next week in New York City can see more details, firsthand! (If you go, take pictures; we'd love to host 'em for you.) (Louis Wu 13:26:10 UTC) (permalink)
'Encrushinated' is DEFINITELY not a word.
Bungie.net's posted another Halo 3 Humpday writeup - a 2v2 match of old guys vs young, fit (well, okay, young) contractors. It's pretty cool to hear that gravity is as changeable as any other gameplay attribute - makes you wonder what OTHER new options we're going to see. Avateur was first with the news.

Halo 2 Stats Sigs, Resurrected
Some time ago, a site called HaloImpulse hosted flash signatures displaying Halo 2 stats. That site has since disappeared. AJay just wrote to us to tell us that he's resurrected the script that generates these .sigs, and is willing to host them for whoever wants to use them as forum signatures around the net. Swing by his page at AJay17.com for more details. (Louis Wu 13:09:28 UTC) (permalink)

Bye-bye, Team Brutes
elessar787 noticed a comment by Ninja 0n Fire on the Bungie.net forums - looks like Team Brutes is disappearing from the BTB Slayer playlist when Matchmaking playlists are next updated (which, according to last week's BWU, should be in the next couple of weeks). Bummer - I sort of liked that gametype. (Louis Wu 12:59:44 UTC) (permalink)
