Get A Closer Look At WETA's Warthog

The rate things are going, they may never make a Halo movie. So that short Neil Blomkamp put together last year may be as close as you get. And these shots of the Warthog used in that short may be as close as you get to it. Built by WETA, the guys behind the special effects for Lord of the Rings, it's crazy the amount of detail that went into a vehicle built not for a movie, or even a trailer, but a cheap concept pitch. Plenty of pics at the link below.

Most Unintentional Halo 3 Betrayal Falls From Sky

Imagine Master Chief hanging out with Chicken Little. A Warthog drops from the sky and kills Master Chief. And Chicken Little is left with nothing to do but spend hours reviewing tape, discovering just who made the sky fall on our lovable hero/Little's fiance. Wait...was Chicken Little a girl? Was Master Chief a boy? Can we get some confirmation on this stuff before proceeding with the lame metaphor?

Thanks Jason!

Warthog RC Car Is Unofficial, Fantastic

This is the Helios, a rock-climbing radio-controlled car by Pro-Line. Now, I don't want to go sullying the good name of Pro-Line's art and design departments, but that's no homage. That's straight-up design thievery. And we're all the better for it! Bungie and Microsoft haven't gotten around to plugging this obvious gap in the Halo merch market, so it's good to see Pro-Line picking up the slack. Oh, and yes. At over 12" long you can probably fit your Halo figures in the seats.

Weta Warthog Suspended

Last month Bungie showed off Weta Workshop's fully functioning Warthog to Halo fans, making them gaze upon their Jeep Cherokees in utter disgust at the lack of weapon hard points. Now the Weta Holics has posted photos of the Warthog doing its impression of fans' pants when they first caught eye of it, complete with raised suspension and armored marine manning the chain gun in back. Exactly what happens to me when I get excited.



Warthog Suspended!

Real Life Halo Warthog

Tiscali games points out that Peugeot's latest concpet car, a dune buggy of sorts, bears an amazing resemblance to Halo's Warthog. I wonder if it comes in camo green? —Brian Crecente More »
