Moa statue (Halo: Combat Evolved)

Moa statues are a collectible available in the campaign of Halo: Combat Evolved. The statues were added to Combat Evolved's campaign in the Series 9 December update for Halo: The Master Chief Collection, and are not present in the original Xbox or PC and Mac editions of the game.

Overview
Several moa statues can be found in each level on any difficulty and take the form of a small golden Moa - visible only in the classic graphics of Combat Evolved and not the Anniversary remaster. Upon being discovered, the statues can be destroyed, with the weekly challenge Eye Spy requiring the destruction of three such Moa for completion. Three levels are chosen to spawn Moa within each week (observable on the challenge itself), with each level getting three statues chosen, meaning they are not all consistently placed all the time. As such, this page lists all potential statue locations. Statues marked as (Broken) spawn every week and don't count towards the challenge, even when the challenge selects the level the statues are placed on. Statues marked as (Unobtainable) denote statues placed in cutscene rooms that aren't accessible.
