The '''McFarlane Halo: Anniversary Edition''' figures are a series of five-inch [[action figure]]s made by [[McFarlane Toys]], based off of the characters from the ''[[Halo]]'' series in celebration of the tenth anniversary of the [[Halo: Combat Evolved|first game]]'s release. The first wave of figures, Series 1 - Advance, was essentially a re-release of specific ''Halo 3'' figures with minor changes. Unlike the second wave ([[McFarlane Toys/Halo: Anniversary Edition Series 1|Series 1]]), these figures do not come with any difficulty plaque parts. The figures were released in July [[2011]].<ref>[http://spawn.com/toys/series.aspx?series=512 '''SPAWN''': ''Halo: Anniversary Series 1 - Advance'']</ref> | The '''McFarlane Halo: Anniversary Edition''' figures are a series of five-inch [[action figure]]s made by [[McFarlane Toys]], based off of the characters from the ''[[Halo]]'' series in celebration of the tenth anniversary of the [[Halo: Combat Evolved|first game]]'s release.

The Plasma Grenade does not have a weapon peg, even though there is a hole for one. The inside bubble of the packaging does not fit the Plasma Rifle. The spot is too small, and therefore crushes the soft-plastic weapon. It also has no place to store it. This can be fixed by soaking the weapon in hot water, bending it in the right position, and quickly cooling it. Also, the figure does not use the hinged-finger hands that were featured on later Series of ''Halo 3'' Elites that made putting in weapons easier. Instead, it uses the original hands found on the initial Elite figures without the hinges, which makes holding weapons harder. The card back shows the Elite as being a bright "Covenant Purple", but the actual figure is crimson. | The Plasma Grenade does not have a weapon peg, even though there is a hole for one.
