Brute Spiker Replica on eBay
smick6 auctioned off a Brute Spiker replica last September – if you were interested then, but missed it, you’ve got another chance. He’s put up another one – starting bid is $275, close is just under 7 days. If you’re curious about what you’d be getting, we put together a gallery last August, showing his…

Forerunner Synaesthesia By Swimmer
gender bombs (or Swimmer, or Solomon) sent us word that he’d posted an album of music for Halo 3 and the graphic novels over at B.net; It’s electronic, and he’s titled the pieces rather vaguely, so that you can decide for yourselves what tidbit of Halo inspired each one. It’s free, and the full download…

Untitled, by IamDank
naveeda stopped in to talk about IamDank’s latest creation – it’s a wonderfully-edited montage… with a 3 and a half minute intro. The intro isn’t just credits, though – it’s a cool collection of machinima shorts that work nicely to introduce the montage itself. A great way to spend a Sunday morning! (If you’ve got…

Halo 3 Fails Episode 9
MasterCheifn was the first to let us know about Halo 3 Fails Episode 9 – mostly because he’s in it (as the first FAIL). Of course, he blames someone else. (In this case, he blames CYBRFRK – and since we blame him a lot too, maybe MasterCheifn isn’t exaggerating.) (Louis Wu 11:54:18 UTC)

Can’t finish what you started? Start something else.
Wow, this is just… silly. Back in mid-2006, Marvel announced that they’d be publishing a monthly Halo comic, starting a few months before the release of Halo 3. The delivery of these issues has become a joke – the fourth (and last) comic is STILL not out, having had its release date pushed back AGAIN,…

Operation Chastity: More Concept Art
Last night, ElusiveEagle519 did some searching and turned up some interesting information about Pete Cooper’s Operation Chastity. Pete had been hoping to dole out content a little more slowly, but since it’s been found, he was kind enough to summarize the useful stuff that was put up in several different posts across a couple of…

InnerRayg found a link on Action-Figure.com with a mini-review and some photos of the upcoming Halo Wars MEGA Bloks. Our forum denizens aren’t terribly impressed, it seems (except for maybe the Hornet and the Sparrowhawk)… but see for yourself! (Louis Wu 15:53:28 UTC)
