I just got a reminder from my distributor that Manticore is a source for Halo : Flashpoint 28mm. I have not ordered any yet but was considering it for the Nashcon show in August, the Florida Hurrico show and Augusta next January. I wonder if there is enough interest to warrant the heavy investment needed. The minimum order is significant. Thanks for your guidance. |

As a property, HALO has been on the down trend for over a decade. Every licensee thus far has failed and it's too early to tell on the latest incarnation. My .02 for what it's worth. |

I've never seen anyone at the local stores play anything but GW stuff. Among the guys that I game with who collect historical and sci-fi, I have never heard them mention it. |

It seems to be new in the US market. 28mm castings. |

Spartan and wizkids have released Halo games and figures in the past, which is what I was referring to. |

Yes I Remember those 79PA. I did not stock them then. Never even watched Halo until two years ago during My five month stint of being bed ridden due to the loss of a leg. |

I'm not a pop culture guy, but it seems to me to be a successful video game that no one has been able to transition into a successful board game or miniatures game, but you never know what the next hot thing is going to be. |

Seen it in person. The minis didn't move me at all. HALO i like. Current game, not so much. Grimm |
