New Master Chief Bust Will Bust Your Wallet

New Master Chief Bust Will Bust Your Wallet

Got a serious Halo [http://www.halo.com] jones and a couple hundred bucks you want to get rid of? One2One Collectibles is releasing a limited edition bust of the Master Chief that might be right up your alley.

There are Halo fans and there are Halo fans, and then there are people who look at this Bungie [https://www.one2onecollectibles.com/content/view/70/43/] nut? This thing screams quality and there are certainly worse ways to impress your friends with just how deep your obsession runs.

The 1:2 scale bust is cast in high-quality polystone [http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_polystone], stands 12 inches high and 12 inches wide, and weighs over 13 pounds. Each piece is fully hand-painted and features a solid gold plate visor and stand insert, and comes packaged in a full-color box with a unique certificate of authenticity. Only 650 are being made.

Did I mention it costs 225 bucks? This is definitely something that's only for the hardest of the hardcore. And to separate the men from the boys in that crowd, One2One has more to come: Following the release of the Master Chief later this year, the company plans to create similar busts of a Spartan soldier, a Brute Chieftain and an ODST Marine.

Now if only they'd make one of Jonoleth Irenicus or Karras' Golden Child, I might be able to blow some money on this stuff too.

Jesus... Unless it has gameplay of every new Halo game coming out ever I see no practical reason to get this.

EDIT:

I'm not the only who thinks that the Chief looks a little on the... um... busty side, am I?

Honestly, I swear I'm seeing breasts on that thing.

Christ, what are you stupid? I see noth-
Wait....
Oh.
Oh, good lord.

Every bust, painting, sculpture, or statue in history has no practical use.

 

[Legion]

It looks impressive, but I would never pay for it. Mainly because I would have no use or it and despite playing computer games and going on these forums, I don't consider myself a nerd.

 

[Mcface]

I wonder if this was mass produced in the same Chinese sweat shop as the MW2 NVG?

The armor has always had that bulge: you're only seeing it as breasts because the rest of the torso isn't there. In reality, it's just the top of the Chief's extremely chiseled chest.

*Looks again*
...OH. Right. I got it now.

Yet, people are still saying Halo isn't a sellout. Silly ignoramuses.

I give Bungie five more years before they end up like the Sonic Team.

Hehe, you have an excellent point - one of the hazards or archaeology: reading too much into things =P

OT: I can't think of any reason to buy something like this, unless you were starting some sort of pop-culture museum...but then I'm not a Halo fan, so perhaps I don't fully appreciate the appeal? =P

there not as big as sellouts as Blizzard, you have to admit that...although what each company has made to make money besides games are almost identical

Great. That image is now burned in my skull. Thanks a lot.

 

[Casual Shinji]

Hurray for kitsch!

 

[Baby Tea]

Now if only they'd make one of Jonoleth Irenicus

Now THAT would get me excited! My wife would think I'm crazy for not only spending the money on it, but when I sit there and start quoting!

"Ahh! The Child of Bhaal has awoken! It is time for more...experiments."
"You will suffer! You will ALL suffer!"
"I won't let you leave! Not when I'm so close to unlocking your power!"

Wife - Honey, what the heck are you doing?
(Turns to wife) "Silly girl, you just don't know what I'm doing, do you?"

 

[Angron]
