Bungie and Todd McFarlane talk toys

Bungie has posted a
very lengthy chat with Todd McFarlane, big cheese of McFarlane Toys, the company behind the latest line of
Halo 3 action figures. In the article, McFarlane details just what goes into the creation of an action figure from the day the project begins to final packaging. The article is also littered with lots of behind-the-scenes imagery like the articulated clay sculpt seen above. Also buried at the bottom of the article is the news that McFarlane is planning to expand the
Halo line of toys to include "larger scale, dynamically posed" offerings. Sounds like the perfect thing to adorn one's cubicle, doesn't it? Oh, and yes, McFarlane is working on action figures wearing the Recon armor permutation. Much like Bungie is with the in-game variant, McFarlane is still being cagey about what we'll have to do to obtain one.

Yawn. Give me an action figure over a meaningless new playlist any day of the week.
"Wow, now I can get teabagged and called N***** in a whole new game variant!"
