Along with the eight regular figures we’ve previously seen that comprise the series, the three super-rare Halo Mega Bloks Series 8 Mystery Figures have popped up for sale online!

Remember the other day when I talked about the Sideshow Exclusive Edition Master Chief Premium Format Figure? The one that pre-sold out for $400 last year that just shipped and is selling for a crazy $1000 online now? Well, Sideshow is back at it again, with not one but two new Halo statues that are going to be even more limited than the exclusive Master Chief with Needler! Going up for sale on Thursday, December 19th–the Halo Spartan Red Team Leader and Blue Team Leader Premium Format Figure statues! And this time, they’re limited to one hundred pieces each…

Looking to give (or ask for) a really wicked Halo-themed Christmas present? Well, how about the best (and most expensive) Halo figure ever made, on sale for its lowest price ever…?
When I saw the first of the ThreeA Toys Halo sixth scale figures go up for sale, there were a couple of reasons I didn’t order one.
