Weapon Skins and Charms Confirmed

I just got my Halo Nerf AR in the mail today and this is the message I got on halowaypoint.com/reddem when I redeemed the code.

So, I think we all expected to see Weapon Skins return, but what do you think Charms are? Think they’re like charms in various other games where the charm just dangles from the side of your weapon? It’d be a welcome addition to customization in my opinion and I wouldn’t mind having it at all.

Oh man, I love it so much. For a Nerf gun it looks absolutely amazing. As a prop/replica it’s even better. I was expecting it to be somewhat styleized like the Boomco Halo blasters, but it looks pretty close as a 1:1 with minor differences here and there. I honestly might buy another one because I really like the colours. I origionally bought it to tear apart and paint so I could add it to my ODST costume. 343 and Nerf did a fantastic job and the Needler and Mangler look just as good from the pictures we’ve been able to see.

Excellent. I was going to post a thread but saw yours. I like the idea of charms and skins. Article here.

I have a BoomCo AR that I painted to look more realistic for Outpost Discovery. Looks like I’ll need to dust off my paint cans for the MA40 here pretty soon!

Awesome, I was hoping that someone else caught this. Thanks for the link. According to the article I might just have to get the energy sword now too. Lol

Ah man that’s super cool.
Nice to see some kind of news for multiplayer at least.
I wonder what they’ll look like in game and what other kind of skins & charms we’ll see

That has to be it. I do not see what else it could be.

Sounds cool as heck honestly.

Nice, thanks for sharing. Charms seem like a logical addition for customization. One thing H5 did very well for the FP view was the accent on your Spartans glove near the thumb. I don’t think it gets much attention, but it was cool!!

Excuse me for my ignorance but what are ‘Charms’?

Charms are a weapon accesory trend that I believe PUBG started. Call of Duty Warzone followed this new feature when it came out and it seems Halo will be following them both. They’re like little keychains that hang off of the side of you weapons. Purely cosmetic fun additions.

I hope the charms are done well. In PUBG you get the same charms for every gun and it is solely based on how many career kills with that gun you have. They never added any more and only one or two out of the 20 or so charms didn’t look tacky.
