McFarlane Toys produced numerous ''Halo'' figures, beginning with ''[[Halo 3]]'', and continuing with ''[[Halo Wars]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo 2]]'' and various other figures from the ''Halo'' universe. They also produced figures from ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', with the first series released in September 2010, and ''[[Halo 4]]'' in 2012.<ref>[http://www.spawn.com/news/news6.aspx?id=13664 '''Spawn''': ''MCFARLANE TOYS TO PRODUCE 'HALO: REACH' ACTION FIGURES'']</ref> Halo: Reach figures are on a slightly different scale than the previous Halo 3 figures. Spartan figures are slightly taller, even though they are [[SPARTAN-III Program|Spartan-IIIs]], which are supposed to be smaller than ''Halo 3'''s Spartan-IIs. Covenant figures, such as Grunts and Elites, are also larger. Regular human figures, such as the Army troopers, are about the same size as the Spartan figures of ''Halo 3'', larger than the ''Halo 3'' humans. ''Halo 4'' figures are of the same scale as the Reach figures, whereas the Didact figure is twice higher than a Spartan figure.

In 2014, McFarlane will release two Master Chief figures, being these figures based on Master Chief's appearance in ''[[Halo Xbox One]]'' and ''[[Halo 2]]''.

Sideshow Collectibles' figures are much more expensive than regular figures, but the quality outmatches most of other companies' work. They started by releasing the Master Chief Premium figure from ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'', and have announced a ''[[Halo 4]]''-era Cortana figure.
