==="The Package" Master Chief===
We couldn't have a Halo Anniversary celebration without including the man who started it all: [[Master Chief]] himself. This all-new version of John-117 shows the hero as he appeared in the [[2010]] animated movie, [[Halo Legends]], and is our first figure inspired by the Halo "expanded universe" of animation, novels, and comic books. To truly capture Master Chief as he appeared in "[[The Package]]" chapter of Halo Legends, we've created an all-new sculpt that features a slightly more animated style, and updated paint that includes the distinctive white stripes and numbering as seen only in this thrilling adventure. Figure comes with [[Assault Rifle]], [[Frag Grenade]], and the globe piece of the UNSC Logo.

This figure is based off of '''[[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]]''''s new look in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]''. It comes with a [[M6D Personal Defense Weapon System|Magnum]] and the banner piece of the UNSC Logo. As with the M6D in the game, the pistol here is simply a repainted Halo 3 M6G. Despite this, however, the Keyes figure is to the same scale as the Reach figures.

Figure comes with the fan-favorite [[Magnum]] pistol and the banner piece of the UNSC Logo.

This figure is based off of the ''[[Halo 2]]'' [[multiplayer]] '''Spartan'''. It has the standard [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI|Mark VI armor]] with white and blue coloring. It comes with a [[BR55 Battle Rifle]], a Frag Grenade, and the left wing piece of the UNSC Logo.

Back in [[Halo 2]], before the addition of [[armor permutations]], Master Chief's [[MJOLNIR]] [[Mark VI]] armor was the basis for all [[multiplayer]] [[Spartans]]. Our first Halo 2 multiplayer Spartan action figure takes collectors back to those days -- when about all you could do to customize yourself in [[matchmaking]] was change your primary and secondary armor color. Our multiplayer Spartan Mark VI features bright white armor with cool blue accents and comes equipped with the ever-popular [[Battle Rifle]], a Frag Grenade, and the left wing piece of the UNSC Logo.

The legacy of the most technologically advanced species in the Halo games, the [[Forerunners]], can be seen in everywhere you turn -- from the Halo array, to [[The Ark]], to the curious robotic constructs they left behind to monitor and protect their installations. Halo Anniversary Series 2 brings a pair of these ancient machines to your collection: [[343 Guilty Spark]] and a [[Sentinel]].
This pack includes a '''[[04-343 Guilty Spark]]''' and an '''[[Aggressor Sentinel]]''' figure, as seen in ''[[Halo 3]]''. The Sentinel has articulated appendages and weaponry, while Guilty Spark features a reversible eye that can be changed from blue to red, depicting [[rampancy]]. Both figures come with a base and pole to give the appearance of them hovering. The pack also includes the right wing piece of the UNSC logo. The figures cannot be removed from the display stand and they are on a larger scale than the other figures.

Figures also come with the right wing piece of the UNSC Logo.
