Reading this article, it seems that the limited edition of Halo 4 will include, among other things, a “Unique in-game Spartan-IV armor skin.”
Now, for those of you who, like me, are more accustomed to armor permutations, you might find this as a shock. Armor skins? Like the different armor types for Elites in Halo: Reach? If so, what should we expect? A return of the classic Mark VI armor, or even the beloved Mark V[? Maybe the Master Chief’s upgraded Mark VI variant (Mark 6.5), or bulked-up ODST armor? Or maybe even a tribute to other games? Hell, will we even see the return of older elements, such as Primary/Secondary color selection and Visor colors?
<strong>In addition, weapon skins are mentioned. Weapon skins? Does this mean we may see the (aesthetic) return of the MA37, the BR55HB, the DMR, the Brute Plasma Rifle, and the Needle Rifle? Possibly even introducing older weapons, like the MA5K mentioned in Ghosts of Onyx, or the Plasma Sword in Halo Wars?</strong>
Only time will tell. Of course, I could end up being horribly wrong, but then again, should 343i ever find this thread and get any ideas… well, I can hope. So what about you guys? Any suggestions or ideas?](http://images.wikia.com/halo/images/2/2b/B312.png)
I don’t want a variety of skins. Can’t they just make caucasian the default?
Since the AR weapon skin is available, it’s safe to assume it will be unlocks for other guns as well.
As for the armor skin, it could either be a set of armor (helmet, shoulders, knees, chest) or just one unique armor piece (though the latter is much likely to happen).

That’s what I was thinking, too. But I read “skins” and I suppose we’ll have to assume that’s what we’ll get until proven otherwise.

I think you’re WAY off. By skins i think they mean color pattern (Camo) or something else along those lines. The way Halo works so far Armor is armor not skins. Sure everything is just for looks but if they wanted ODST armor, or the Mark VI then they would be in game as armor peices not skins. Same with weapons it sounds like Gears style weapon skins that don’t change the model of the weapons. ](http://images.wikia.com/halo/images/2/2b/B312.png)
I’m looking forward to the new skins! could be good, but there should be a medal for killing someone with their own gun
