This article is based on canon information, but the article's name is conjectural, as there is currently no official name for the subject.

This article contains information of dubious canonicity. While not officially established as fully non-canonical, certain aspects of the subject may not be part of the official Halo canon.

The Banished utilize modified Goblins.

Operational history[edit]

"Who's a big bad Grunt? I'm a big bad Grunt!"

— A Goblin pilot on Installation 00.^[1]

During the UNSC Spirit of Fire and the Banished's stalemate on Installation 00 in 2559 Yapyap the Destroyer used at least three Goblins during his rebellion against Atriox.^[2]

Trivia[edit]

In Halo Wars 2 the Blitz card for the Goblin has one of the Goblins have the name Andy written on the bottom of its foot. This is likely a reference to Pixar's Toy Story, where many of the toys owned by Andy have his name written on the bottom of their feet.
