I like the purple aliens and the human.

That tank is……………………

Excellent? wink

It an iconic tank for me having seen it in so many HALO games.

…exactly the tank in Halo?

THIS is the game I'm really waiting for! Planning to jump in with both feet when it hits!

I am pretty pumped about the miniatures. I probably won't like the game if its like most other Spartan games I've played. However, high marks for getting the sculpts right.

Mako1114 Aug 2015 1:15 p.m. PST

Nope, TG.

….made with a ridiculously high turret.

Now you can use the Covenant with Flames of War-just might be worth it.

Crap. They look really nice. I'm in the midst of doing more 6mm & 3mm gaming, but this may rekindle my interest in 15mm.

The tank looks exactly the same to me.

Tank STILL looks really stupid.

Rest of the minis look like a very large hit to the wallet is incoming.

Yeah I will buy it. My son tried to get me to play Halo once; I just kept walking into enormous boulders and shooting into the sky. I hope to have more success with the tabletop version…

Glad that some of you like them!. (smile)

This is going to seriously test my will power as its among my favourite computer gaming franchises…

Don't mind the tank – always assumed it was a remote turret. Now the battle tactics displayed in Halo: Reach are daft – Warthog rush anyone?

The turret sort of reminds me of the M1A2 'Giraffe' from T2000. It would make more sense if it could be raised or lowered with hydraulics, to allow the tank to vary its profile and go from turret-down to hull-down while remaining stationary, if desired.
