Secret Character revealed?

I think I might have found out something about Halo 4.
Look at this picture
If you look to the right of the bigger chief, you can see a blacked out image of a Mark VI Spartan. Under it says “Spartan 3.”

Now in Glasslands it’s revealed that the remaining Spartan-IIIs would be integrated into the Spartan-IV program. Jun is also alive as well and could have recieved Mark VI if he made it to Earth.UPDATE. It’s actually “Spartan 1.”

Now I don’t think this should be considered a leak since this is from a public event.
Also the note cards stating what each figurine is called are off. I don’t see a Master Chief from “The Package” and a “Spirit of Fire Red Team” is just a Red Mark V Spartan from Reach with Grenadier kneeguards.

nice find, I think you’re onto something! I can’t elaborate on this but these pictures are new to me.

There’s also a picture of a figurine from Halo: Legends.

Also based on those pictures, it appears that McFarlane is going to make a Halo ring, and a Fred figurine (from the Package.)
McFarlane is going to make 3 secret characters for Halo 4. Since this one is the only image blacked out, it can be safely assumed to be a Spartan from Halo 4.

It doesn’t say “Spartan 3”. If you look at this picture:

It clearly says “Spartan 1”.

Ya that’s Fred. Did anybody else notice that almost all the cards next to the figurines are wrong? The Halo 4 chief is listed as “Master Chief-The Package.”

It says “Spartan 1”.

Oh ok. But even then, it must be like Spartan #1 or figurine #1. The fact is that it’s still blackened out. Other pictures next to it are not seen in their figurine form at the Toy Fair.

I think it’s still safe to say that this is one of the secret characters and is a Spartan.

Nice find!

AR is back! :slight_smile: we have two guns we know that are going to be in Halo 4

Hmmmm. Three secret characters. Three Spartans.

Blue Team: Fred, Kelly, Linda

Hmmmmm.

The AR looks overall the same. Not a big deal. I’m sure that if that is the Halo 4 AR, it will look a bit different form it’s Halo 3 variant.

I’ve been speculating that they would be the co-op characters for Halo 4 even before the reveal trailer was released.

It would be amazing if Chief would be reunited with his old team. Imagine the gameplay, the story. They’d arrive via Infinity, of course.

Am I the only one that doesn’t want to play as characters named “Fred”, “Linda”, and “Kelly”?

I agree with you 100%. Though right now, i’m expecting the novel haters to arrive and claim it would ruin things.

Blasphemy!

> Am I the only one that doesn’t want to play as characters named “Fred”, “Linda”, and “Kelly”?

Why do you want to play as a character named “John”?

I like the novels and I think it’s a terrible idea. You make them co-op characters and you know nothing is going to happen to them, so good-bye tension. Even if they did die, who is going to replace them, generic S-IV or S-III number 56? I’m sure that’ll be popular. Then you have to go into detail and explain why these characters matter. Gears of War 3 introduced characters from the comics and novels and it failed completely at doing that. Not only that, but good luck explaining the significance of Chakas, the UNSC Infinity, the S-IVs in general and everything else the books brought up. Sure I’ve read them and get it, but the vast majority of the fanbase hasn’t.
