Description Here's Master Chief in mark V armor, Halo Reach style! The head came from the Mongoose Mark V 2-pack and the body of a Noble six. I didn't want to cheap out and have the limbs look the same as every other Reach spartan so I reworked the knees, added the knee pads, toe plates, and hands from a Series 8 Halo 2 MC, as well as giving the X-bolt hole designs on the arch plates.

The backpack over-shoulder ports were changed as well as the shoulder pauldrons coming from the series 8 Master Chief. The Reach figures' range of movement wasn't that great so I modded MC at the elbows, hips, knees, and the head which now sits on a double ball-joint so he can look in any direction. Finally to set him apart from the rest I painted him head to toe in golden-tinted olive-green and gave him the 117 designation. Master Chief is ready to take on the Covenant for the first time!

he looks.......alot better proportioned than alot of reach spartans. well done. but the real question is, can he take a knee? because we all know spartans can crouch. but taking a knee seems to be their achilles heel.

@mageanor, combat evolve wasn't John's first encounter with the covenant .-. he's been fighting them since the fall of Harvest that's like, over 20 years.

You obviously haven't read the books. He's already 40+ years old if you ask me.

Nice!
Though, in the cryo-tube would be nice.
And you missed the chance to add the three pocket/pouches on the chest.

How did you attach the head since the Halo 3 and Reach joints are different sizes?

Jin-Saotome In reply to Fire1138 [2010-12-28 23:07:25 +0000 UTC]

It was easy, I swapped in a double ball joint post (not the cups, just the center piece) from one of those yellowsub brand sets HLJ.com sells. Fit in both sections fine.

This is almost exactly how I imagine he'd look during the Fall of Reach. Spectacular work, as always
