Funko’s Pop! toy line has now official expanded into video games with the release of its new Halo Universe vinyl figures. The classic story of human supersoldier vs. theocratic military alien species can now be reenacted with these figures based on the hit video game Halo. Wave 1 includes Master Chief and Grunt as 3.75” stylized vinyl figures. This might just be the one corner of the pop culture landscape The Blot knows nothing about. I’m embarrassed to say I’ve never played Halo and really only know Master Chief by his now iconic green helmet. But aren’t all the Halo characters basically Stormtroopers, all wearing the same armor in different colors? Or am I missing something?
Each Pop! Halo Universe Series 1 vinyl figure stands 3.75” tall, has a rotating head and comes in a displayable window box. These figures are expected to become available on December 1st, 2011 and will retail for around $9.99 each.
