Waypoint's Weekly Wrap-Up
Hey, while you're over at Halo Waypoint, watching The Mona Lisa 4, check out their Weekly Wrapup - there's plenty of good stuff to chew on. New toys from McFarlane, a couple of montages (Halo 2 and Reach), a cool 3D pic (the Wraith explosion is amazing), a truly adorable Master Chief, and plenty more. If you missed anything this week - it's all there! (Louis Wu 05:03:02 UTC)

A Spartan Sculpt - you can have one too
Last month, I mentioned that Jason Evans had completed some Master Chief sculpts in cold-cast bronze, and sometime earlier, I mentioned that he was interested in selling them to help him pay for the mold. They really seemed pretty cool to me - so I bought a pair. One is for me - it goes on one of my Halo shelves. The other will be given away in an upcoming HBO contest/giveaway. (I have no idea when; I'd first have to come up with a plan for the contest itself.) I took a few shots of this bad boy out in front of our newly-sprouted flowers - because what's more warriorlike than a flowered background? If you can't wait until we actually give the second one away, swing by Jason's gallery here at HBO - there's an email link that will let you get ahold of him directly, and you can buy one right now.

On Sale, Weta You Like It Or Not
For the next three days, Weta's Master Chief and Flood sculpture is only $99 (in US dollars) - this is significantly off the normal price of $297. (We last mentioned this sculpture in September 2008, when it was still in the preorder phase.) The silver-plated version brought over $1,800 at auction... this might be your last chance at one of these! (Headline shamelessly stolen from Grim's now nonexistent double post, because it's pretty tasty.)

zizi custom minifigs
AceForge stopped in with a few DeviantART images he ran across; apparently, DeviantARTist pentecil has been creating some very cool minifigures. These are really cool! (There's a Master Chief, an Emile, and a battle between Emile and an Elite. (Louis Wu 16:25:25 UTC)

I bet that chafes.
Black Six let us know about a live-size Master Chief costume... made of LEGOs. Read a post-mortem written by the creator at The Brothers Brick! (Louis Wu 20:07:03 UTC)

Stephen Colbert's Seal Team Six
You may have heard a little something about Seal Team Six over the past few days. The identities of its members are classified, so Stephen Colbert took a guess at who they might be. In his dashing Mark VI armor, Master Chief grabbed the third spot on the team. How did Kung Fu Panda make the list? Is he going to spin-kick his way into a terrorist stronghold? I guess every team needs a weak link to make the others look better. The segment starts at 1:45. While you're there, you could watch the whole episode. There's nothing wrong with that. Update: (The post below completely trumped this. Curses!) (Hitmonchan 17:49:47 UTC)

Can a chainsaw cut through Spartan armor?
Hitmonchan, just before heading out for a weekend of debauchery and pantsless reveling, stopped into our forum with word of an interesting aside in an interview with Epic's Cliffy B. Apparently, the Master Chief COULD have been in Gears 3, but the idea was nixed by Microsoft because Gears is a bit too... bloody. Go read Cliffy's description of what might have been!

Bronze Master Chief. Beautiful.
Wow. You might remember some Master Chief sculpt images we posted a few months ago - Jason Evans had said he was going to cast this in bronze. Well... he did. That looks SPECTACULAR! Check it out. (Louis Wu 16:50:02 UTC)

I am the Master Chief.
Hexlord posted four amazing photos (1 | 2 | 3 | 4) of a cosplayer in his custom-made Mark VI armor and weapons on deviantART. Did I use the correct armor this time, Grim? :^) Great stuff, Hexlord! (Hitmonchan 06:37:56 UTC)

Of Chief Concern
SFX-360 put out a pretty neat article that poses the question: What If Microsoft Never Had Halo? It raises some interesting points to think about in the grand scheme of things. Looks like Master Chief might have saved a lot more universes than we previously thought! Thanks to the handsome and talented GrimBrother One for noti- wait, never mind.

More Halo: Faith Pics (and a new cast member)
wwm0nkey noticed an article at DeviceMAG, with new pics from the Halo: Faith shoot last weekend. Cool stuff! Update: wow, in a surprising bit of news, Steve Downes (the voice of Master Chief) has joined the cast of Halo: Faith! Thanks, padraig08. Update 2: Looks like the Facebook post has been taken down. I guess it's not official. :) (Louis Wu 15:08:29 UTC)

Slot Cars... without the slot
wheeler pointed out a new video from Think Geek, showing off a pretty amazing little product. Master Chief makes an appearance, making this HBO-relevant... but dang, I'm considering buying this product because it's just SO COOL. (Louis Wu 22:06:01 UTC)

Card Sagas Wars - Master Chief VS Samus
Over at NeoGAF, wwm0nkey brought attention to a video showing off a fight between Master Chief and Samus in the upcoming Card Sagas Wars (a fan-driven crossover fighter). Looks amazing! (Louis Wu 13:28:02 UTC)

Tenth Anniversary MC from McFarlane
Heh - nice. McFarlane will be releasing a 10th Anniversary Master Chief this fall - and it looks like the in-game (blocky) model. Pretty cool! Thanks, ElzarTheBam (who found it at Kotaku). (Louis Wu 16:08:28 UTC)

Waypoint Wowzers
bs angel sent word of a couple of worthy bits over at Halo Waypoint's website (now Silverlight-free!). Anoj's Top 10 Reach Kills series is up to Episode 16 - Amazing Kills shows off some jawdropping carnage... and Master Chief Stained Glass is a really cool example of what you can do when you mix Halo love with glassworking skills. Check 'em out! (Louis Wu 19:18:39 UTC)

Only one of us is wearing bulletproof armor...
TCKaos pointed out Part 4 of Modern Warfare 2 meets Metal Gear Solid, a pretty well-done live-action film that's relevant here because of the presence of Master Chief. Nice coreography!

The Most Important Character in The Last Minecart
Sometimes, fans show that 'fanatic' was the right word to shorten... Elnea was watching a fan-made tribute to Minecraft, The Last Minecart, and noticed a split-second view of the Master Chief about halfway through. MAN that's watching carefully! (Pretty cool movie, all by itself.) (Louis Wu 22:49:35 UTC)

Be Yourself (or Not)
Bungie's Joe Staten talked to Industry Gamers recently about the development of the Master Chief's character, and what drove different aspects of that development. It's a pretty interesting read, and nice to hear from Bungie's perspective. Thanks to Avateur, who found this at Kotaku. (Louis Wu 15:22:00 UTC)

Master Chief Sculpt
So a couple of years ago, we posted a note about Jason Evans, and his Master Chief sculpture - the gallery in that link is (unfortunately) offline now, but we've got copies of the pics. And last week, we heard from him again - he's got a new sculpt, one that's quite a bit better, overall, and he wants to cast it in Bronze, or maybe white epoxy. He'd also like to sell a few, to pay for the mold... so check out the pictures, and if you're interested, contact him! (Louis Wu 23:07:52 UTC)

Punt the Grunt
Teo was looking for an old tricking video, and stumbled across a little diversion called 'Punt the Grunt' - use a Master Chief-operated Shade to shoot a poor little grunt as far as you can. PC-only. It's just a 4mb download - if you've got a couple of minutes, give it a shot! (Louis Wu 19:02:17 UTC)

Monday Movies
A few new movies for you, courtesy of Bungie's Comm Chatter:
- Bungie All Stars Submissions Week 3 shows off lots of fan-created takes on the "Helmetless Master Chief" theme. Some are pretty good. Some... not so much.
- I'ts been a little while since we saw a Rube Goldberg Forge creation... this one's Star-themed.
- Dutchy's latest montage is Blue Skies, a mix of Reach and Halo 3 footage. Very short clips.
Go watch! (Louis Wu 18:56:18 UTC)
