**The director's commentary for the episode reveals that the armor's appearance is largely an aesthetic concession to the studio to allow for some visual variety for the character, and as a nod towards multiplayer fans who use armor permutations, such as the CQC variant. The same is true for the armor's color, though this is also representative of an effort to camouflage the suit. This means that other than the suit's color, the armor's appearance is non-canon.<ref>'''Halo Legends:''' ''Homecoming'', director commentary.</ref> At the end of the episode, John-117 is depicted in a Mark IV suit that has greatly exaggerated features, more closely resembling the Mark VI; this is clearly another instance of non-canonical imagery. | **The director's commentary for the episode reveals that the armor's appearance is largely an aesthetic concession to the studio to allow for some visual variety for the character, and as a nod towards multiplayer fans who use armor permutations, such as the CQC variant.

*The sketches of the limited-production Mark IV in [[Dr. Halsey's personal journal|Doctor Halsey's journal]] are almost identical to [[:File:Masterchief sheik.png|an early concept]] for the MJOLNIR armor, apart from the helmet. | *The sketches of the limited-production Mark IV in [[Dr. Halsey's personal journal|Doctor Halsey's journal]] are almost identical to [[:File:Masterchief sheik.png|an early concept]] for the MJOLNIR armor, apart from the helmet. | ||
*In 2526 Kelly and Fred are seen in MJOLNIR Mark IV suits that that are visually very similar to the first generation of the MJOLNIR Mark V armor worn by NOBLE team in 2552 (Fred's armor being almost identical to that of the MJOLNIR Mk. V [B]). This is because the actors were using repainted Mark Vs made for the ''[[Deliver Hope]]'' commercial. | *In 2526 Kelly and Fred are seen in MJOLNIR Mark IV suits that that are visually very similar to the first generation of the MJOLNIR Mark V armor worn by NOBLE team in 2552 (Fred's armor being almost identical to that of the MJOLNIR Mk.
