Gamestop Powerup Rewards Exclusive Halo 4 Spartan Warrior Figure!

For the McFarlane Halo 4 collector who has to have everything (and I mean everything), a brand-new Halo 4 action figure from McFarlane Toys has finally turned up: a Gamestop Powerups Rewards exclusive red Spartan Warrior! And if you’ve got $1,200 (no, that’s not a type-o) that you’re not using, you can purchase the one and only Gamestop Powerup Rewards Exclusive Halo 4 Spartan available online right now!

UPDATE: The Gamestop Powerup Rewards Spartan Warrior figures have begun to ship and arrive to people with far too many Powerup Rewards Points on their hands. They can now be purchased for as low as $350! Uh… what a deal, right?

Halo 4 Red Spartan Warrior Powerup Rewards Action Figure

This red Spartan Warrior action figure differs from the Halo 4 Series 1 Spartan Warrior action figure in that he has black as a secondary color and is wearing one of the custom Halo 4 armor skins. In addition, this red Spartan Warrior includes an Assault Rifle, whereas the previous release came with a Sniper Rifle (I’d rather have the Sniper Rifle, personally).

The Gamestop exclusive red/black Spartan Warrior is limited to just 3,000 units produced, the same number as the blue Halo Reach Elite Officer figure which was such a hot item in 2011. If you want to redeem your Gamestop Powerup Rewards points for the custom Spartan Warrior figure, it’ll set you back a cool 18,400 points.

The existence of this (sort of) all new McFarlane Toys Halo 4 action figure can be confirmed by visiting the official Gamestop Powerup Rewards website. The new red/black Spartan Warrior exclusive has not yet been released, but is expected to be shipped out in February.

We first knew that a new red Spartan Warrior was coming when we saw it included with the Halo 4 Series 2 figures lineup prototype photos. I suspected the figure would be part of a new boxset, but it looks like I was wrong this time! It’s entirely possible that the Gamestop exclusive Halo 4 Spartan Warrior figure could end up being pushed back as late as September, when the rest of Halo 4 Series 2 is anticipated for release.

Thanks to reader Kevin for tipping us off to the news of this hot new exclusive Halo 4 Spartan Warrior figure!

Gamestop Powerup Rewards Exclusive Halo 4 Spartan Warrior Figure! — 9 Comments

  1. Too bad I’ve accumulated 1600 points i would love to get this figure then maybe add it to my collection but probably sell it

  2. I can’t believe they’re still doing this sh*t. Who has that kind of money to spend on games?

    • Not me, that’s for sure! I was not pleased to see this figure show up in the Powerup Rewards catalog at all. I bought a 500GB PS3 and games last month, and I don’t even have half the points necessary for this red Spartan Warrior exclusive. It’s a lot more likely I’ll be buying this figure from the secondary market than Gamestop, that’s for certain.

  3. Isn’t this just the red Spartan Warrior from Series 2? or is the pic of it on the back of the boxes promoting this one?

    • If you look closely at the Series 2 Spartan Warrior on the packaging, you’ll see that it has the “Exclusive” symbol next to it, designating the figure as a store exclusive. In this case, it’s a Gamestop PowerUp Rewards Exclusive.

  4. seriously, the first time I saw an over-priced figure was the elite officer and seriously, it s*cked much balls to begin with…the zealot was a better looking figure
