Toy Psychic: The Future of Halo Collectibles
I found a rather interesting press release from Corgi International over on Toys News International having to do with a structural announcement and brand license acquisitions, here’s the most interesting nugget:
- A partnership with Microsoft to bring the exciting and interactive world of Microsoft’s “Halo? franchise to life with stunning 3-D merchandise, in conjunction with the highly-anticipated release of “Halo 3? later this year.
I have a Toy Psychic prediction. Very shortly you will see an announcement that Master Replicas will be making high end Halo collectibles. Why you ask? Well, Corgi owns Master Replicas and after losing their Star Wars license, they’d be utter fools not to cash in on the Halo franchise.
Annnnnnd my prediction has come true. Amazing isn’t it?
So here’s my wish list for Master Replicas Halo merch:
1. Full Size replica assault rifle
2. Full size Spartan Helmet
3. Full size ODST Helmet
4. “Studio Scale” Warthog
What would you like to see coming from a Master Replica Halo line up?

A “Studio Scale” Warthog would be awesome, but I’m sure it would also be some series $$$’s.
It will be cool to see what they come out with. Hopefully they will do some scaled replicas that are more affordable too.

A full scale plasma sword would be pretty cool. I wouldn’t mind being able to hang that up on the wall.
