Same here. One of the walmart's halo was packed. Should have just been the halo aisle. That is one way to sell product though. Get all your shit to walmart when no one else is and give the consumer no choice but yours.

I picked up the Spartan Mk. V [B] yesterday (the blue one which came with an Elite). My biggest beef with the figure is that the hips have constrained range of motion. That is to say, there doesn't seem to be enough clearance in the pelvis for the legs to move properly; the upper leg rubs against the pelvis cavity. You can move the legs forward into a seated position, but it sort of "locks" there and you can't get most poses in between. If you try to move the leg outward, then it tends to unseat from the ball joint, and can sometimes be removed altogether.
Anyone else have this experience? Anybody have an idea on how they might fix it? I think that one could either Dremel down the pelvis cavity area some more to create more clearance for the legs; or, one could try to file down the upper "corner" of the legs so they fit within the pelvis area better, but those both sound like a lot of work. Otherwise, great figure, except for his *gigantic* gun. Is that a Covenant gun? Looks like a Brute weapon.

It's a Brute rifle. You can tell by the giant frikkin' blade. |

Whats the deal with this line? Is it going to make it to wave 2. I was at a walmart the other day and they had like 5 pegs of all master chief. Literally they had like 30 of them. A target near me is peg warming a lot of the other figs.

Yeah it’s warming the pegs everywhere. I’ve been hitting Walmarts looking for clearance but non around me have started clearing them out cheap. Some dude on Facebook was finding the figures for 3 bucks and the red speeder thing for 4 bucks.

In the meantime these will either peg warm or get tossed to the side for some other warm piece of crap of the month....
