 Lockdown restrictions were lessened in Hungary for US productions in June 2020, allowing work on the show to begin again. Filming was done at Korda Studio, with an estimated $41.3 million spent on the Hungary shoot by mid-2020.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://variety.com/2020/artisans/global/hungary-dune-the-bankers-wife-1234694342/|Site=Variety|Page=Hungary Exempts U.S. Cast, Crew From European Union Ban (EXCLUSIVE)|D=20|M=03|Y=2022}} The renewed shoot was able to resume with COVID protocols in effect, with photos showcasing the cast and crew wearing masks on-set among other things.{{Ref/Reuse|HaloDays20}} In February 2021, a handful images from the shoot showcasing several [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] in costume and a practical [[M12B Warthog]] were leaked onto the Facebook Halo community, though the post was later removed.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.facebook.com/groups/36571243008/permalink/10160752646113009/|Site=Facebook|Page=Halo Community|NoArchive=yes|Detail=Defunct|D=01|M=03|Y=2021}}{{Ref/Twitter|Mikethehuman_|1365791816516325377|Mike|Live action Warthog and marines spotted in Hungry|D=21|M=03|Y=2022}}
-A number of physical props were developed for the filming, with many of the weapons featured in the series manufactured based directly on the 3D models used in the original ''Halo'' games, including the [[MA5C assault rifle]] from ''[[Halo 3]]'', the [[M57 Pilum]] rocket launcher from ''Halo 5'' and [[BR55 battle rifle]] from ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]''  and a large number of weapons from ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' including the [[M392 DMR]] and [[M6G magnum]]. A chaingun based on the [[AIE-486H machine gun]] from ''Halo 3'' was produced based on an airsoft M134 minigun, with additional details included for lore fans such as [[Colonial Military Administration]] signage. The initial weapons developed were simple plastic molds, but as production ramped up more complex props were created with the ability to change magazines, charge the bolt and take them apart in their entirety. The MJOLNIR suits developed for the show are fully-practical, with designs based off the Master Chief's armour design in ''[[Halo Infinite]]''.{{Ref/YouTube|F-j3ma0FiEE|IGN|Halo TV Series: Bringing Master Chief's Weapons to Life <nowiki>|</nowiki> IGN Premiere}} Despite this, a number of modern day real-world props were also used for background elements such as [[Wikipedia:Kalashnikov rifle|AK-derived]] weapons for [[Insurrectionist]]s and the usage of modern cars such as the Chevy Tahoe.
