'''Joyride Studios''' is a company that produces [[action figure]]s. It has been in business for over fifty-five years and has produced a wide array of collectors items, ranging from [[Wikipedia:James Bond|James Bond]] cars to [[Wikipedia:Mech Warrior|Mech Warrior]] and [[Wikipedia:Battlestar Galactica|Battlestar Galactica]] feature action figures. | |||

In 2003, Joyride Studios linked up with [[Bungie Studios]] to create several ''[[Halo]]'' themed action figures for ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. Its original three figures; [[Halo 1 Master Chief v1 Action Figure|Master Chief v1]], [[Halo 1 Cortana Action Figure|Cortana]], and [[Halo 1 Warthog v1 Action Figure|Warthog v1]] were instant successes, both on [[Wikipedia:E Bay|E-Bay]] and in video game stores. Their success prompted more developments. In all, five series with twenty-nine different action figures were released. In addition, seven more "exclusive" figures were released in select stores at select times. The lack of availability caused some of these figures to go up in price, sometimes into thousands of dollars. | |||

For ''[[Halo 2]]'', Joyride has produced eight series with forty-one total action figures. In addition, twenty-two exclusives have been made. The releases of the figures coincided with release of details about the game, as a [[Master Chief]] figure featuring two guns was released shortly after the [[Dual Wielding]] feature was announced, and the [[Brute]] action figure became available only after the Brute's role in the game was revealed. | |||
In one of the ''[[Halo 3]]'' FAQs, [[Frank O'Connor]] stated that it is "safe to assume" that [[Bungie]] and Joyride Studios will work together again to develop action figures for ''Halo 3''. However, an [http://www.figures.com/databases/action.cgi?setup_file=fignews2.setup&category=actionfigures&topic=6&show_article=1518&nl=1 article] on [http://www.figures.com Figures.com] stated that "JoyRide/RC2 announced at Toy Fair that their multi-year ''Halo: Combat Evolved and'' ''Halo 2'' video game toy license contract had expired and that there were no new plans to renew." This company was eventually replaced by [[McFarlane]] Toys in the production of [[Halo 3]] [[Action Figures]]. | |||
